So I wake up on Friday, the day of the trade deadline and what do I see? Detroit Tigers trade Luke warm French fries and some single A jabronie to the Mariners for Jarrod Washburn... YIIIPPPPEEEEYYY!!!! wow can't believe DD pulled off something so big. Needless to say I'm very pleased with the pickup because if the tigs make the playoffs, watch out, they have arguably the best three man playoff rotation in all of baseball. On the other end of the spectrum, DD failed to trade for a bat, which I also felt was necessary. If the tigs had the prospects to get Roy Halladay, you can't tell me they didn't have enough to get Luke Scott or Adam Dunn... it just doesn't make sense. Sure, our starter will give up 3 runs, but if we can't score a damn run, we will lose every game 3-2. Looks like Guillen, Cabrera, Granderson, and Polanco will have to carry this offense because B-inge looks like a P.O.S. since his HR Derby embarassment. The rest of this season will be exciting to see if this offense has enough fire power to get the pitching the wins that they deserve. Verlander, Jackson, Washburn= studly, but they will need a few runs to get wins, so come on tigs... get the bats hot at the right time, and win the Central.
Coming soon... discussion of a man's "top 5 women"... every man has their own picks

quick question? can't they get another team to do a "waiver trade" where both teams lets players hit the waiver then both claim them immediately?
ReplyDeletethat way they can still get a bat.
yeah that can still happen but doesnt happen too often
