after a decent playoff push last year hes really done nothing with his chances this year.

 

[tigermud]

I'm surprised they actually did it, wow. impressive. someone will pick him up for sure, Any guessing which team? Seattle or Oakland is my guess. The tigers are going to have lots of WS rings to hand out after all these roster moves this year, DFA's etc.. all these guys will still get a ring if we win it, even Cringer. LOL

I fully expect Kelly to pass through and land in Toledo.

Something to be said about a guy who mastered as many defensive rotations as he did, the achilles heel for Don is he just cannot hit.

 

[jdeb]

I agree, he will be a Mud Hen. Raburn bats right but can't hit or field. I would have DFA's that bum.

 

[byco42]

Kelly's another player who should just relish every day he's on an MLB roster, because someone better was bound to gradually, then suddenly, replace him

 

[biggunsbob]

Kelly does have that Homer he hit in the playoff game last year at Yankee stadium... Gotta always thank him for that..

 

[zoombabyzoom]

Oakland claims him

Oakland claims him

They love our scraps.

Maybe Raburn and Worth get on the A's squad by season's end.
