Tigers pick up $13 million option on Pudge

I think it's a good move, but I know others will disagree. Pudge came here when nobody else would. Illitch is paying off that loyalty. I have no problem with it.

It's not just that. There are no viable alternatives at this point.
Oh, and also this was already posted in a different thread.

Deserves its own thread.

Re: Tigers pick up $13 million option on Pudge

We have a realistic shot at a championship next year. Letting Pudge go would seriously undermine that (by not having a great catcher to manage our pitchers).

Overpaying him for a year is our best option right now.

Besides that, he is an OK hitter, and is a leader.
