Photo by Nic Antaya/Getty Images Welcome to the weekend, friends, and a Happy Easter weekend to those who celebrate.

Free-agent right-hander Alex Cobb in agreement with Tigers on one-year contract, sources tell @TheAthletic. Deal is pending a physical.
Ugh, stop it.
Rob Manfred says there is “buzz” around adding a "Golden At-Bat" rule to Major League Baseball, per @jaysonst. This rule would allow a team to choose one at-bat in every game to use their best hitter regardless of where they're at in the lineup. https://t.co/rHwqxw57ZW
