Tigers just announced Craig Monroe was traded to the cubs for a player to be named later. I haven't found any links yet, but they announced it over the television.

Here we go:
DETROIT – The Detroit Tigers today traded outfielder Craig Monroe to the Chicago Cubs for a player to be named later on or before Oct. 15. Designated for assignment by Detroit on Aug. 17, Monroe hit .222 with 11 home runs and 55 RBI in 96 games with the Tigers this season. Monroe was claimed off waivers by the Tigers from Texas in 2002. He batted .259 with 101 home runs and 379 RBI in 672 games in six seasons with the Tigers.

Unfortunately, Monroe had too many ups and downs and he went into too many slumps. He would have a horrid month hitting up a storm, and then go really really cold. This is really unfortunate. I wish him luck with Cubs.

Poor Robertson. The guy goes really strong, very economical, shutting out Tribe for 8 2/3 innings just to get pulled with 2 outs in the 9th without any offensive support and without a win. Sad, sad, sad.

Re: TIGERBEAT presented by Stroh's

I love Leyland as a manager. But sometimes I just don't get him. Why let Santiago hit with 2 runners on in the 9th with 1 out in a tie game? Wouldn't someone like Rayburn provide a better alternative?

Good point. I was wondering about putting in Pudge as the pinch runner when he has 0 stolen bases this year too.

I dont' know how fast Rabelo is. Maybe he's just too slow to be any kind of threat to move at all.

Zumaya manages to mess up the game after all. Another run given up by Tigers pitching with 2 outs.

Re: TIGERBEAT presented by Stroh's

Now it all completely falls apart. It's 3-0 and this one is over.
