    What an awful trade for the Tigers.... they already have a shitty bullpen why the fuck would you want that worthless fuck Farnsworth for? At least get some prospects.

    Pudge isn't great or anything, but getting him for Farnsworth is a steal. Good trade.

    Eh, Pudge isn't that good anymore. But he is better than Molina.

    Pudge kind of sucks too though, at this point.

    Better than Jose Molina at least.

    Yeah the dump is fine but are the Tigers waving the white flag?

    Not really they could just stick Inge back, the dropoff isn't much so it isn't waving the white flag and as sad as it is to say this, Farnsworthless is better than shitty Todd Jones.

    terrible trade for Detroit. Watch Farnsworthless implode.

    If they're going to trade Pudge, getting something of value back.

    Pudge is more name than player at this point, he is basically the equivalent of the Castillo trade last year for the Mets

    Good deal since Farnsworth's time was up at this point with what's in the bullpen already and Bruney, Cox, Melancon waiting in the wings.
