Raburn's made a pretty decent career thus far given his limited defensive abilities. I imagine someone will pick him up and give him a shot.

Pretty funny story about his call up this past September with the Blue Jays. He actually pitched a game for Canada in the WBC Qualifier held in Germany, flew home to Canada for a wedding, and found out at the wedding he was getting called up. Because he anticipated flying back to Germany for the tourney finale, all his gear was still over there when he got the call up and he had to borrow a glove and spikes.

A decision will have to be made about Valverde. If Leyland determines he can't be trusted and can't use him, rather than have a dead roster spot they could activate Villarreal or Downs.

I agree that he might be tipping his pitches, because hitters seem to be sitting on that changeup. And he hasn't lost his ability in other areas since he put up the 2nd highest K/9 of his career and his walk rate is just marginally higher than last year.

Drew Henson hired as a coach for the Yankees
T.O. Tiger Fan replied to NeedMoreLike84's topic in Detroit Tigers
He could've been great if he had picked just one sport and focused all his time and energy into it. He was never fully committed to either baseball or football. -
Why would a team send a guy like Putkonen to the AFL? He's already got a bit of big league experience and looks to be a fringe reliever at best, the 11th or 12th man on a staff.

2012 Trade Deadline Discussion thread!!!
T.O. Tiger Fan replied to STLTiger69's topic in Detroit Tigers
He's got a $10 M option for 2013 that vests if he finishes 45 games, plus a $3M buyout. He's already finished 29, so assuming they use him as a setup guy, that's a $3M buyout for a couple months rental. -
Eldred was DFA'd to make room for Young being activated from suspension.

Mariano strains right knee while shagging flies
T.O. Tiger Fan replied to IdahoBert's topic in Major League Baseball
Hate to see his career end like this. Maybe he'll rehab and come back next year just so he can go out on his own terms. -
Thad Weber promoted, Schlereth to AAA
T.O. Tiger Fan replied to DaYooperASBDT's topic in Detroit Tigers
Schlereth has been awful this year, so the move was expected sooner rather than later. Let's see what Weber can do.
