Bless You Boys Podcast 94: Dave Dombrowski is a wizard - a podcast by SB Nation

Bless You Boys Podcast 94 has a running time of 53 minutes and features Al Beaton, and of course, Kurt Mensching. HookSlide has the week off.

Kurt and Al cover the past week of Detorit Tigers baseball, which means they spend the vast majority of BYB Podcast 94 covering all angles of the Prince Fielder / Ian Kinsler trade and the resulting fallout.

Topics:

When Prince Fielder was traded for Ian Kinsler, our first reaction was "HOLY SHIT!" The second was, "How could Dave Dombrowski trade that contract?"

Kurt and Al both predicted ... Fielder would not be traded. Whoops.

The Tigers have a large hole in the middle of their batting order.

Who plays where? Does Miguel Cabrera move to first base? Why not Jordan Lennerton at first base? Is Nick Castellanos the new third baseman? Where does Victor Martinez end up?

The Tigers freed up a ton of cash, but will they spend it?

If the Tigers just unloaded a $24 million a season contract, why would they give out another in free agency?

In the eyes of Rangers fans, was Kinsler viewed in the same way as many Tigers fans viewed Fielder?

Fans completely overreacted to Fielder's ALCS comments. Players have a better attitude about winning and losing than many irrational fans.

No ifs, ands or buts about it, Dave Dombrowski is a wizard.

All but forgotten in the wake of the trade was Brad Ausmus adding Omar Vizquel and Matt Martin to his staff.

Dombrowski denies Robinson Cano was in Detroit, saying, "We plan on having Ian Kinsler as our second baseman this year." But he said "plan, not "definitely." Hmmmm.

Phil Coke is coming back.
