We remain skeptical of this, mainly because he is sourcing the Daily Herald for part of his opinion, but Schmehl believes Damon will be accepting the two-year, $14 million deal the Tigers offered him more than a week ago. If it's a real offer, we have a hard time believing Damon would actually decline it, as speculated over the weekend. Position players are scheduled to report to Tigers' camp on Monday and their first full workout is scheduled for Tuesday.
