That does seem like a lot of money for a guy that will be 39 when the contract is up. I was figuring he would get 2 years at around $18 million which is still a lot of cash. I wonder how this affects...

Maybe it’s about having a position to play in the outfield.

I don’t care how much they spend, as long as they win. I will help pay for it by paying $12.50 for a hot and a beer. It would be nice to see that infield improve with some defense. That hole at second...

Torii seems to be one of the good guys. Good for him for getting work with a 2 year deal. The Tigers might be able to produce more runs at this point with him in their lineup and the return of...

Thanks to the new CBA, we know that $13.3 million is the annual average pay of the top 125 free agents from the previous winter. I think it’s safe to say that Hunter is an above average player and...

T. Hunter is not your everyday 36 yr old major leaguer. He’s built like a football player and is incredible shape. Age is a non issue. To all the Angels fans complaining. The only offer that was made...

This is exactly what I was afraid of. That’s $6M too much. Granted it’s only 2 years, but for a little bit more per year we could have gotten Josh Hamilton. He’s a nice player but we paid too much.

um… Halos never pursued Torii… we didn’t even extend a qualifying offer…

Yes, but that’s what people don’t realize. Hamilton would have cost the tigers their 1st round draft pick, not to mention a 5-6 year deal. This is a nice short deal, and if in fact he does hit in front...

With a two year deal, you can’t go wrong here. Hunter is getting the price the market dictates and it is certainly an upgrade for the Tigers http://sfgiantsfansunite.blogspot.com/

There’s a big difference between arguing that Hunter may age more gently than the average plan and asserting that age is a nonissue. Obviously, he doesn’t cover the same ground today in the outfield...

As an angels fan, I am sad to see him go. Detroit got a true leader and genuine good guy. The man is a stud! For the people saying maybe its about a spot in the outfield or he doesn’t want to watch...

Enjoyed having Torii on the Angels, fun player to watch and seems like a great personality. I wish him luck even if he is on the Tigers.

don’t really know how you could see this as a bad signing. Hunter is a hell of a guy to have in the club house and can still produce. http://sfgiantsfansunite.blogspot.com/
