Well one of Detroit Tigers' icons has been traded. Pudge came to the team after a 119 loss season. He was one of the biggest reasons for the tigers turn around. He WILL be a hall of famer one day the question is when he is inducted in what uniform will it be?

He will be missed in Tiger town but wish all the best in the world. (except when playing the tigers)

He was a free agent at the end of the season anyway. He would most likely ask more than he was worth. Of course, they all are paid all than they are worth. It's just fun to watch once in a while. Layoutshooter

I think it was silly of the Yankees to trade for a catcher. They had an excellent defensive catcher in Jose Molina, and a decent backup for him. Jorge Posada will be back next year, although according to the Yanks website he is considering a position change.

Ivan has helped a lot since he came over, but the Yanks have been a long shot all year to touch the playoffs.

At least Boston won't have to deal with pinstripes this off season
