Pat, never understood why Sanchez took so long to sign in free agency a few years ago. I can't believe only the Cubs and Tigers were interested. He was only 28 and in his prime and he was a pitcher first, that threw hard. This was a great signing by the Tigers. Even with a reduce velocity today, he is still effective because he hits his spots majority of the time. Jose I is the spark plug on the team.
