Over at Minor League Ball, John Sickels made a trip to watch some AFL action last week. He addresses a couple of Tigers prospects in the comments in this post. I know it's a lot to sift through, but there's also useful commentary about other AL prospects, too.

Several articles were published on mlive in the last day or so regarding the trade stuff, and this link on MLBTR does a decent job of summing them up. Nice to see some actual quotes from Dombrowski on all of this, after so much speculation.

IF, and I mean IF, the Yankees were to make a play for Grandy, the article explores three ways of how it would unfold.

Polanco wins his second Gold Glove in 3 years. Other winners listed here.

(I figure Ian will post about this with more detail later, but thought I'd share!)

For those with Netflix, The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg is available for Instant Watch.

For those wondering if the Tigers would be after him..

Vote now! Vote often!

And my night just got a whole lot worse. Ernie's taking it as well as anyone can though:

"Whatever's in store, I'm ready for a new adventure. That's the way I look at it."

So Detroit's favorite son has authored a book! Supposedly about making healthy choices, personal triumph, etc. If you have read it, or know more about it, can you share an opinion? I love to give books as gifts...

to LHP's Fu-Te Ni, Bobby Seay, Jarrod Washburn, and good old D-Train!!

also to southpaw batters Lord Avila, Grandy, Cletus, Jeff Larish and sometimes Carlos Guillen!
