Possible Valverde signing soon?

Yahoo! Sports reports the Detroit Tigers have signed Jose Valverde for two years/$14 m.

He's no Val Venis, but it's something.

At least they haven't completely closed up shop.

I'd say something, but I'm going to take a break from my fake Pharaoh quotes schtick.

The people cry out for more and you reject them so dismissively.

Honestly, I couldn't think of anything and didn't want to force it.

I was going for the assist, too.

Goodbye Rodney.

Valverde is a top 10 closer in the league, he doesn't have the command problems that Rodney has and his ERA was half of what Rodney's was last yr while pitching in a hitter friendly park in Houston.

This was a perfect fit. Who cares about the draft pick, we finally have a legitimate, reputable closer.
