Jason Grilli FINISHED With The Tigers
Wednesday, April 30th, 2008Tigers bullpen scapegoat in 2007 and 2008 will not see the Tigers again till June 08′. He was traded today for 22-year-old Class A reliever Zach Simons of the Colorado Rockies.
It’s doubtful that Simons will ever be a Major League pitcher, which begs the question, why trade Major-League Junk for Single-A Junk? I know they needed to make room for Cruceta, but is this really all the Tigers could get for Jason? Do other teams really think he’s as bad as Tigers fans think he is? Grilli was actually pitching moderately well in recent games.
I guess I don’t really know what to think about this one.
