Because he made himself into a good hitter, and could play anywhere he was needed on the field. <BR/><BR/>I would be thrilled if Brandon Inge ended up being the same sort of player for the 2008 Tigers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20500414.post-55117585443665470742008-01-28T23:12:00.000-05:002008-01-28T23:12:00.000-05:00Brandon:You've got every right to be bitter and fr...Brandon:<BR/><BR/>You've got every right to be bitter and frustrated about your treatment from the Tiger's organization. You've obviously given 110+% throughout your career in Detroit and you deserve better. I completely understand your stance that this is far more important than the money involved. You want to contribute in a meaningful way, and you have demonstrated your ability to do so over the past several years.<BR/><BR/>Keep your chin up. We anticipate that your contributions to the 2008Tiger's campaign will be far more significant than you might expect.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for all you've done to advance Detroit's baseball program. You have a large base of support out here, as I am sure you recognize.<BR/><BR/>John Voorhorst -- Ann ArborAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04387959198949696766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20500414.post-85615270186922685932008-01-28T21:27:00.000-05:002008-01-28T21:27:00.000-05:00I was hoping they wouldn't be able to get value fo...I was hoping they wouldn't be able to get value for Inge, for purely selfish reasons.<BR/><BR/>He's my favorite Tiger, and I didn't want to watch him play for another team, even if they would let him start.<BR/><BR/>Just call me a horrible person. :)Baroquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08165802622322008923noreply@blogger.com
