Doug says Colt Keith is the reason the Tigers have won 8 of their last 10 games.

00:00I feel like why they've been winning is because they've added a player and

00:05That player is Colt Keith

00:09In this stretch the rookie second baseman sitting 395 with a 480 on base. He's hit five home runs

00:18He's got he's got a double and two triples

00:22Colt Keith is

00:24like adding a feel like they've added a good player and

00:28It's helped and

00:32One good player goes along now, it's not just Colt Keith, but one good player goes a long way and

00:42So PAX Stadium

00:45playing better I

00:47Would be hard it'd be so tempting as a general manager to want to add and I'm not talking about at the trade down

00:53I'm talking about at the offseason and he wants to keep clarity

00:56And they've got a couple weeks to decide after the all-star break what to do with clarity

01:02I've said it. I'll dangle. I'll dangle clarity and and school ball out there and look for godfather offers

01:10and

01:11Probably move clarity who's you know on a rental contract?

01:15But I'm also not giving him away

01:18Because you can give him a qualifying offer

01:19I mean, he's got to prove that he's gonna healthy like that was the whole thing that start that last start was so important

01:26to show the market that he's healthy and

01:29It's only one start he can have two and maybe three more starts before the trade deadline and if that first start back

01:38With a what was it six innings of shutout baseball one run he gave up a solo shot if he does that

01:43These next couple two three starts

01:46then there'll be a market for him and

01:48My instinct tells me get out from under that it move him

01:53Before the the back rears its ugly head again and get what you can because as much as Peter believes it

02:01seems real

02:03Real difficult for me to craft themselves getting back into this race when you win eight of ten and you're still seven back

02:08God, it doesn't feel like they made up ground
