Note to Ilitch: If the Tigers don't start winning SOON, attendence WILL go down Note to Leyland:

The truth is, this IS Pudge's team, which is exactly why his dismal .291 OBP (of whatever it is) is tolerated. But at the end of the day, he's gonna be wearing a Ranger's uniform in his HOF photo, so.... maybe he just doesn't care. Tbone:

In the scheme of things it is a small amount he is payed and Maybe would be paid in 2008, nickels. They were going to pay Neifi $2M this year. I'm not 100% they are done with him, word has been that the Pirates asking for Craig was a stopper to the deal for Wilson. While I don't want to see them pick up Wilson, I'd hope they didn't stop a deal to keep Craig here for just this year. I’m not sure money is coming into play with Monroe.

I've been thinking for a while he should be the guy to step up and start getting fiery in the clubhouse. Although he could help the team maybe even more by upping that OBP.
