All four of the Tigers' competitors in the A.L. Central made moves Friday. Here's how those moves look through the Tigers lens: White Sox: They let go of right fielder Jermaine Dye, 35, when they didn't pick up his $12 million noption for next season. Dye, a Tigers tormentor, has hit 16 career homers at Comerica Park -- the most by any visiting player in the 10-year history...

At The Detroit Tigers Weblog , Bill Ferris looks at the team's 40-man roster , which currently has 44 players on it (due to some being protected on the disabled list). So the Tigers have some decisions to make, especially as some minor leaguers will need to be protected. Bill speculates who the first cuts will likely be. The San Francisco Giants re-signing second baseman Freddy Sanchez last week seemed...

Short is a big issue for 2010. Scutaro cannot be counted on we'd haveto assume (the Jays would do full medicals to know a lot better than usI hope) so what do they do? A strong #1 or #2 shortstop is needed. With this staff it has to be aleague average or better defensive one too (ala Scutaro & McDonald)but ideally also an offensive force (as good or better than Scutaro in2009). Checking Fangraphs...
