Some people are calling it a waste, a blown opportunity, a sign that the Tigers and Dave Dombrowski aren't making enough effort to win.
I call it a great, great move.
Sure, I would have loved to get Adam Dunn, or a big monster stick to bat in front of or behind miggy, but if the tigers make the playoffs, they will be a tough out.
Having a 3 headed monster is nice. Verlander, Jackson, and now Washburn. Look at those ERAs. I like the move. The Tigers lineup is not as weak as people think. Actually if you look at the A.L. we run run with anyone.
The Yankees are no shoe-in to head to the World Series. Yes they have a monster lineup, but I for one don't believe in their pitching.
Yes we didn't get the stick I was hoping we would get but.....
It's August 1st, and the Tigers are in contention. That's all us real fans hope for in February when spring training begins.....

The lefty we finally needed?? I think so.....
