Detroit Tigers Team Notes

December 13 in Tigers and mlb history :

1922: Alarmed at the increase in home run hitting (1,054 in the major leagues, up from 936), some American League owners back a zoning system setting a minimum of 300 feet for a ball to be called a home run. The motion dies. In another action, the league requires each club to furnish two home uniforms per player, plus extra caps and stockings on the road, to improve the players' appearance. In National League meetings, Charles Ebbets proposes putting numbers on players' sleeves or caps. It's left to each club to do as it wishes.

1927: The Tigers trade OF Heinie Manush and 1B Lu Blue to the Browns for P Elam Vangilder and OF Harry Rice.

2001: In free agent news, the Tigers sign IF-OF Craig Paquette to a 2-year contract.

2007 - The Mitchell Report is released, naming 89 players as having used or been in possession of steroids. Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte, Miguel Tejada and Jason Giambi are among those named. The report calls for tighter regulation of performance-enhancing drugs.

Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports suggests the Marlins should trade Hanley Ramirez and considers possible suitors such as the Mariners, Tigers and Giants.
Rosenthal also notes that the Mariners are having trouble luring free agents to Seattle and that the Tigers have shown a willingness to move Jacob Turner in the right deal.

Detroit Tigers Team Notes

Might be seeing something shortly about a 2nd team in on Jimmy Rollins.

Jimmy Rollins fits the Tigers just as Reyes would have. i.e. in every way but $$$. Didn't go after Reyes. Been told no on Rollins, as well.
