Yeah, Jim Leyland may get the "Manager of the Year Award" , and he's giving plate appearances to Neifi Perez. A team only has 27 outs per game. Unfortunately, Neifi gives the Tigers four outs [or three if he has that super-duper single] per game. Also, lets not forget that he habitually grounds into double plays!

Great move Dombrowski

BTW, I do not like how Hendry handles the Cubs, but he was able to get a prospect catcher for Perez without paying Neifi's contract next season. I have to to give credit to Hendry for pulling this one off.
