WTF tigers?

Question

The tigers just traded the greatest catcher of all time who is hitting .295 right now for a reliever who is terrible.

wtf were they thinking?

Answer 1

i like it great

Answer 2

They weren't wrong in trading Pudge. I guess they figured that he would leave the team through free agency anyway (since he was in the final year of his contract). Why they got Kyle Farnsworth instead of a young prospect is beyond me.

Answer 3

I say the General manager is worse then Pudge is, He traded the Best catcher in the game for some Used up Reliever useless may I add, If they wanted to get rid of Pudge they should've got another Catcher in Return.

Answer 4

I am a Yankee fan and finally I don't have to cringe when Farnsworth comes into a game.  It will be nice to see a .295 hitter step up to the plate instead of Molina's .213.  Boston, beware..

Answer 5

Im a Tigers Fan and im very happy with the deal. We needed another reliever and we had Farnsworth back in 2005, and he is consistent and he can throw gas. Brandon Inge was our Catcher before we acquired Pudge in the first place, and he is really good, plus he has more Power then Pudge does now, so it's a good deal.

Answer 6

They got ripped off

Answer 7

Greatest catcher?...pffft LOL

Joe Mauer

Answer 8

now you're not gonna catch up the white sox..

d**n the organization...The Tigers are screwed

Answer 9

Im 50/50 on this one ! To be honest in the long run the edge goes to the tigers cause he was not happy and was sure to walk at the end of his contract ! So why not try and get something !

Answer 10

They werent thinking.  And all of Detroit thinks its  GREAT deal because they look at the July stats of Farnsworth.

While the whole world, especially Yankee fans are cheering right now. (as they should)
