For this written version of the MCB Roundtable, we asked the question if you can take any negative attribute away from a Detroit Tigers player and make it just average, who would you pick and what would you change?

Any video game you play these days, you have the opportunity to level up your character.  If you play the MLB The Show 20, you can level up your Detroit Tigers player as he makes his way up from the minors.

For this MCB Roundtable exercise, Chris Brown posed an interesting question. If you can take any negative attribute away from a Detroit Tigers player and make it just average, who would you pick and what would you change? I thought about that question as a video game question because I am watching the Netflix documentary “High Score” and it was top of mind but it applies to the question. It works here because we want everyone to improve in some sort of way.

So the question was posed and here are some of the answers we got. Some were very elaborate and some were very short.
