Martinez October 20, 2016 By Anthony Fenech/ Detroit Free Press The Detroit Tigers aren’t in a position to spend more money. General manager Al Avila said as much on Tuesday afternoon, saying with certainty the team would not be a big player in the free agent market. Avila wants the team to get younger. He wants more financial flexibility. And this off-season, he will approach the trade market with a number of high-priced, uber-productive chips, none more likely to get moved – if a move is made – than rightfielder J.D. Martinez. Martinez is scheduled to hit free agency after the 2017 season. He is due $11.75 million. “I don’t foresee any talks of a long-term contract at this point,” Avila said. “In saying that, we’re going to keep an open mind in what possibilities come across this winter, this coming summer. I’m not going to rule out that we wouldn’t consider a long-term deal, but sitting here today, we’re not thinking that way right now.

Biggest factors in the rosy outlook, according to Bolstad, are experience and balance. The Gophers top four men, Gene Hansen, Capt. Carson Herron, Rolf Deming, and Jim Pfleider are extremely well matched, and Bolstad says he can't chose between them as to excellence. The other members of the squad's top six are Harry Newby and Les Peterson. Bolstad hopes his squad will continue the great improvement demonstrated last year when the Gophers catapulted from ninth to fourth place and almost finished second.

    CoSIDA NEWS Intercollegiate Athletics News from Around the Nation July 30, 2007 Page 1 of 3 If you ain't cheatin', you're welcome in Slive's SEC July 26, 2007 By Dennis Dodd CBS SportsLine.com Senior Writer Tell Dennis your opinion! HOOVER, Ala. -- When Mike Slive replaced Richard Petty as SEC commissioner five years ago, the news passed most of us by. A 62-year-old former divorce court lawyer taking over college athletics' most prestigious league from a NASCAR legend? Sure. Don't think of Petty the man, but the culture he represented. If you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin'. The King and his high-banked racin' court live by those words. The Commissioner, though, has been determined to walk softly and parry the big hick. SEC recruiters were known to swear allegiance to their school with one hand on the Bible and the other on their wallet. You never knew when a recruit was going to need a $200 dinner. Or rent. Or a "date." Slive on the SEC: 'There is no doubt there has been a change When Slive arrived on the job in 2002 (actually replacing the venerable Roy in the culture.' (AP) Kramer), he had this crazy idea to clean up the league's lawless image. Image? Well, it was more stone-cold encyclopedic fact. A "change in the culture," he politely put it. Might as well try to teach Petty grammar. Cheating is so ingrained in the SEC that Southern culture was on the skids. It's also why it's amazing that Slive is tantalizingly close to achieving the inconceivable.
