Kyle Farnsworth? Really? That's all we could get for a solid, everyday catcher who is, albeit, on the downside of his career and in the last year of his contract? I mean, Farnsworth is pretty good and all - at least, he's been pretty good this year - but I've got to believe that we [...]

I don't have a link yet, but i just saw this on ESPNEWS. According to Buster Olney, the Yankees have traded Kyle Farnsworth to the Tigers for Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez. I like this trade for the Yankees. Farnsworth is average at best, and the Yankees have guys in the minors who could easily replace him. Pudge has an OPS+ of 101 this year, so he's about a league average pitcher, which...

The trade deadline has passed now and all the tigers got was farnsworth great pickup in my opinion.I think they could have used more help like a lefty.So in say my peace i hope rodney,zumaya figure out there stuff because we will need it if we are going to make the playoffs.A starting pitcher would not had hurt with the struggles nate robertson has had.

The Yanks are a bit pudgier than they were a day ago, addressing their hole behind the dish by acquiring Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez from the Detroit Tigers in exchange for erratic reliever Kyle Farnsworth. It will be Kyle's second tour of duty with the Tigers, for whom he pitched in 2005. Presumably, this means Brandon Inge will be seeing a ton of time at catcher for...

PREGAME: After a lackluster effort the Tigers can hopefully muster some offense against Matt Ginter. You may remember Ginter as a former Tigers pitcher and an accomplished banjo player. The Indians picked him up and he's allowed just 3 runs in 2 starts with no walks.
Armando Galarraga takes the ball for Detroit. [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Game 106: Tigers at Indians...

Pudge Rodriguez for Kyle Farnsworth? My first reaction was, and who else did the Tigers get? Rodriguez is having a fine season, and there are teams that are really looking for catching help. Besides the Yankees, the Marlins had also inquired and were turned away. In other words it was kind [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Pudge traded for Farnsworth", url: "http://www.detroittigersweblog...

Wednesday now has to be officially known as the greatest day of Kyle Farnsworth's New York Yankee career! Pitching well enough to get himself traded for catcher Ivan Rodriguez is probably the best thing Farnsworth has done for the Yankees in his three seasons in pinstripes.
No, this trade does not address the Yankees still-gaping need [...]

PREGAME: Cliff Lee is one of the best in the AL this year. Nate Robertson has been one of the worst - at least in terms of ERA and hits allowed and batting average allowed.

PREGAME: Anyone else still tired from last night? Hopefully Justin Verlander went home early and got a good night's sleep. The Tigers used 10 innings worth of bullpen last night and need Verlander to be more efficient than his 110 pitch, 4 inning outing against the White Sox. The Tigers bullpen [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Game 108: Tigers at Indians", url...

Adios, Farnsy!The Yanks swapped Kyle Farnsworth for Pudge Rodriguez today, responding to Jorge's injury and getting rid of a guy who throws hard. Though he was showing improvement this year, I don't think anyone was comfortable when Farnsworth came into a game. In return, the Yanks get a future Hall-of-Famer, a clutch hitter with a gun. As long as he stays healthy, this...
