Tigers acquire Gerald Laird for prospects

[JickBoy34]

Split the difference between .299 and .571, call it around .430...easily.

That's a pretty terrible shooting percentage for a center.

Laird is probably the best they could hope for at C, and while the prospects have potential neither is a name I've been hearing for a while.

In other words, I'm as happy as I could be at catcher. I suppose if they traded Dontrelle Willis and Nate Robertson to the Cubs for Soto and Harden I would be happier, so technically I'm not as happy as I could be at catcher. Sorry for being a liar.

So who will get more starts at catcher: Ryan or Laird. It sounds like they're going to split the season almost 50-50.

I got excited when I saw that actually drafted Melo, but then just traded him away.

Glenn, I have no idea what the hell you're actually talking about right there.

My geniousity is often misunderstood.

Zekyl, who did we give up for Laird?
