Re: 2007/2008 Tigers Offseason Moves

According to an account I read he claimed that he was just moving things around in his basement to get valuables together in case he would have to evacuate on short notice. He wasn't in the danger zone but he wanted to be sure. Kind of a weird story, though, I wonder if it is true?

Story seems amazingly unlucky. I'm doubting it.

While Kenny Rogers trolls, Tigers look at Marlins' Dontrelle Willis

Quote:
After agent Scott Boras told the Tigers this week that free-agent left-hander Kenny Rogers would consider other offers, president/general manager Dave Dombrowski acknowledged that the Tigers had no choice but to pursue different options.
I wonder if Tigers would even want Rogers back at this point. He always kept saying that he was only interested in playing for Tigers and now he's changing his tune.

That's how I look at it. We have an example of Todd Jones who said that his preference would be to stay with Tigers. And he backs up his talk:
Quote:
David and I have a great relationship," Jones said via text message Friday, in reference to Dombrowski. "I look forward to hearing what he's got to say this week. "I've done a good job for him. It's been a good (match) for the both of us. I look for both sides to sit down and (find) out if there is common ground."

boras is just doing his job as an agent to try to get more $, and i'm sure he hated when rogers said he'd only play for the tigers.

I perfectly understand what he's doing. If that's the case, though, Rogers should've kept his yapper shut.

It'll be interesting to see what Boras can get for his client. Lotta uncertainty about him after last season.

Re: 2007/2008 Tigers Offseason Moves

ESPN - Tigers trade Infante for Cubs outfielder Jones - MLB

Quote:
The Detroit Tigers acquired outfielder Jacque Jones and "cash considerations" from the Chicago Cubs for infielder Omar Infante.

Jones, 32, is a .280 hitter with 164 home runs in nine seasons with Minnesota and the Cubs. He hit 27 home runs in 2006, but he never warmed to Chicago and was a target of boos from Wrigley Field fans and abuse on the local radio call-in shows.
Tigers wanted that guy before, but couldn't get him. He will shore up the outfield and give us the left-handed bat.

I hope Infante gets to play more in ChiTown than he did in the D. I got the impression that JL never liked Omar much.
