The Detroit Tigers should regret not signing Corey Seager
The Detroit Tigers signed Javy Baez the same offseason Corey Seager was a free agent. Baez has since become a scapegoat of sorts in the motor city, while Seager continues to thrive and turn the Rangers into a perennial World Series contender.
Baez was such a bad signing, in fact, that the Tigers couldn't find a trade partner for him if they tried thanks to his contract. Javy's struggles after his half-season of success in New York are well documented.
Seager was out of the Tigers price range at the time, which falls directly on ownership. Now with a group of players perhaps rounding into form, new GM Scott Harris has a lot of tough questions to answer as to the future of this club. Seager would have helped matters in the post-Miguel Cabrera team development.
