The Detroit Tigers confirmed their deal with outfielder Justin Upton yesterday. It’s a six-year contract which Upton can opt out of after two years.

Milwaukee Brewers catcher Jonathan Lucroy says he’d like to be traded. In an interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Lucroy acknowledged that the team is rebuilding, and said it’s unrealistic to expect that it will be competitive for the next several seasons. At age 29, he says he’d like to play for a contender.

Our high school hockey coverage continues Friday evening, when Hancock entertains Bay Port, and Saturday afternoon, when the Bulldogs host DePere. Hear both games on KBear 102.3, KBear102.com and the KBear app.
