This podcast doesn’t answer this question. It answers why the Tigers shouldn’t have, as I said more than three years ago, before Baez made his first plate appearance in a Tigers’ uniform. I delve into the numbers that should have been an alarm that signaled Baez was not a sound investment. And introduce the Tigers’ signing of Gleyber Torres as a possible one-year insurance policy, who could fill in at the shortstop position.
