Though Sizemore trade has worked out well for both sides so far, I'd like to see the Tigers add another vet reliever for the 7th/8th. Maybe a guy like Chad Qualls in SD...has had some post season experience and was a former closer. Pricetag shouldn't be too steep.
Likewise, Orlando Hudson another SD guy who could be helpful to Tigers. Litmus test is comparing any middle infielder acquistion to Santiago. If not a substantial upgrade, why bother?
Can Dombrowski work another "affordable" Peralta type deal for 2b or 3b?
Woody,
No question Tigers need another arm for the bullpen, and it should be a right-hander.
