Tigers Executive: \'Growth Has To Come From Within\' 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Oct 15, 2024 2:29 am

Detroit Tigers president of baseball operations Scott Harris met with the media on Monday, just days after the club was eliminated by the Cleveland Guardians in the ALCS.

\"Regardless of what we do this winter, the majority of our growth has to come from within,\" Harris said. \"There\'s just too much opportunity on this roster, and that\'s the beauty of building with young players. We have to help them get better.\"

Harris added that the Tigers intend to \"chase talent,\" not \"payroll thresholds.\" 

\"If there\'s a talented player we have conviction about who fits how we play and fits our clubhouse, and he costs money, we\'re going to pursue him aggressively,\" he said.

Detroit ranked 25th this season in Opening Day payroll.
