The Detroit Tigers have had internal discussions on the possibility of bringing in free agent DH and former Tiger J.D. Martinez. The Tigers are off to a 13-2 start, mainly because of excellent pitching, and good production from the top of the order. However, aside from Javy Baez, who is hitting .309, they haven't gotten much production out of the 4-9 spots in the order. Main DH Kerry Carpenter is hitting just .170. Mark Canha, who has shared the cleanup spot with Carpenter, is hitting just .231 with a homer and 6 RBI.
Martinez would be a clear upgrade, but would reduce the lineup flexibility that manager A.J. Hinch likes.
It is believed that Martinez wants a two year deal worth at least 10 million a season. That asking price could be too steep for the Tigers.
NOTABLE FREE AGENTS STILL UNSIGNED.
Here we are, in the middle of April, and some notable free agents are still without a team. Along wioth the aforementioned Martinez, SPs Jordan Montgomery, and Michael Lorenzen remain unsigned. Montgomery is a Scott Boras client, and seems to want a long term deal, which teams have seemingly been hesitent to give. Same seems to be true with Lorenzen, though his asking price is much lower.
Contenders that could be in need of an upgrade are the likes of the Rangers, Padres, Yankees, and Dodgers. The longer they remain unsigned, the asking price could go down. A couple players, notably Blake Snell settled for a 2 year deal with an opt out after the 2024 season. It's possible that Montgomery, and/or Martinez could do the same.
