Has anyone heard anything about up-to-date trade rumor possibilities, or is he most likely just going to get the ax? It looks like Higgy’s gone from what the Free Press is saying as of this morning.

I know I promised an update every day this week. Unfortunately my web hosting company migrated servers last night. The good news is the blog only experienced a 6 hour downtime. The bad news is, I can't do any updating yet because FTP is broken. Sorry everyone. I know I promised an update every day this week. Unfortunately my web hosting company migrated servers last night.

He has the opportunity to be traded to an exceptionally competitive team (Marlins) and he's talking about "holding all the cards" and intimating he might waive his no-trade clause. As a lifelong Tigers fan, those comments come off as exceptionally insulting and self-serving, the characteristics of pro sports, but nothing I would have ever expected from Higginson. Basic facts are the guy has been overpaid and underplayed since he resigned - he should feel grateful he been able to look that pathetic at the plate these past years while rolling in the multi-millions. You know, I hope we keep him from playing competitive baseball as long as possible. Take the one thing he professes to love from him (baseball) in exchange for being so callus to those who cheered him on, asked for his autograph, and dreamt about his part in the Tigers "next" season. When did Booby Higginson become such a sterotypical pro athelete? <br> <br>Bobby, go home! <br> <br>Sorry for the diatribe, but reading his comments on the Tigers site tonight made me boil. Anybody else fell as miffed? For someone who WAS a longtime Higginson fan and defender, I hope the guy rots on the bench, ROTS!

Bobby, go home!
