Tigers have been looking for a replacement closer since their 2012 season.

Been one of their major holes in their team, since.

I would much rather like to look at what Arizona has to offer. Deeper farm and MLB ready OF depth.

I like Jones if we are in need of a punt return.

But, can he play WR?

Yeah I was gonna say, isn't Detroit farm system worse then ours?

I'd rather deal with a deep farm team.

They added KRod. For next to nothing.

Last time he was in the AL didn't he suck? Oh wait, yes I remember now.

He wasnt exactly used well. Wasnt given much of a chance to have success.

Great K rate, and a phenomenal WHIP last year with the Brewers. Going into his age 34 season, he's a bit younger than I expected.

Could be a nice pickup for them actually. Or he could implode like he did with us....but it's not a bad gamble. Contract runs through next year with a 2017 team option.

Well, that was quick.

Why gamble on Joe Nathan redux. Get a real closer. God knows they need one.

K Rod's stint with the Orioles was almost as forgettable as Michael Morse's.
