Thanks. And yea, I really hated trading Mike. I think he'll up some decent numbers in Boston and if they can work on getting some pitching next, they should start winning some ball games.
Personally, I'd love to see a wide open AL for a while. Things can get kinda boring for the fans when the same couple of teams beat on the league year after year after year.
Rebuilding is hard especially when you are a big fan of the few guys on your team with any real trade value. It'll probably take a while, but hopefully the Tigers will claw their way back into contention quicker than people expect.
I went from the "dead last by far" farm system to into the top 7 with one draft and one trade. So, I at least have that to feel good about.
