. . . of dubious OF/2Bs . . .
Although I see . . .
. . . he bats lefthanded, so maybe they wanted a matched pair . . .

Sounds like the sort of player Jim Leyland loves, a lousy hitting utility man!
Which is why I’m afraid Patterson will end up getting 150 AB in the 3 hole for the Tigers, because that’s how Leyland rolls.

I miss baseball so much.
I miss waking up and hearing all of the talk about the previous night’s Tiger game.
