"When the Giants Come to Town..." is my blog intended to chronicle my thoughts on San Francisco Giants baseball. My special interest is in prospects and the farm system, but of course, will comment on all aspects of the San Francisco Giants. I will also comment on baseball in general, particularly from a fantasy baseball perspective. I hope you will find the site informative, and invite you to join in the discussion.

Hot Stove League Review: Tigers
The Tigers are treading water, sitting at the top of the draft, waiting for the farm system to kick in with the next homegrown core. Sound familiar? Does Miggy Cabrera still play for them? Key Moves:
Free Agents Lost: Edwin Jackson(RHP), Matt Moore(LHP), Gordon Beckham(IF), Tyson Ross(RHP), Matt Wotherspoon(RHP), Jose Fernandez(LHP), Zac Reininger(RHP).
Free Agents Signed: CJ Cron(1B/DH), Jonathan Schoop(2B), Ivan Nova(RHP), Cameron Maybin(OF), Austin Romine(C).
Trades: Acquired Eric Haase(C) from the Indians for cash. Acquired Dario Agrazal(RHP) from the Pirates for Cash.
Rule 5 Draft: Rony Garcia(RHP).
Minor League Free Agents: Jorge Bonifacio(UT), Zack Godley(RHP), Alex Wilson(RHP), Hector Santiago(LHP), Kennys Vargas(1B/DH), Jordy Mercer(SS), Christopher Smith(RHP).
Suspension: Victor Alcantara(RHP- 80 games).
Summary: Now in their 4'th season of rebuilding, the Tigers signed some low cost players who give them a semblance of a major league roster while waiting for the farm system to catch up and accumulate another high draft pick. In looking over their top prospect list, I'm not sure I'm seeing an end in sight.
Grade D.
