I loved the Gary Sheffield trade. Extending Brandon Inge’s contract was smart. Signing Jose Mesa to a 1-year deal, well we’ll see, but it looks good on paper. What do all of these have in common? They are all moves that make the Tigers better, and without adding a bad contract to the roster.
Exactly why the Jeremy Bonderman contract extension was a great move by Dombrowski and the Tigers. He is still young, getting better every year, and has shown he can pitch in big games. He is a steal at 4 years and $38 million.

Here’s a great article by Greg Eno about the possible grooming of Joel Zumaya as a closer, and his opinion of it. I have to say, I agree!
