The deadline passed about 5 minutes ago and evidently the Tigers and codgers spent all their time negotiating a deal for Eduardo knowing he would reject the trade... that's a bolt strategy cotton!
Why does he reject? Not like he's leaving a winning team.



He would be taking a big pay cut going to the dodgers and 2 or 3 months away from his family playing for a team he don't want to play for maybe??? He had 19 other teams he could have negotiated with including several who wanted Eduardo... Ken griffey Jr said he would quit if he was traded to the yankees. After last year it is clear he has family issues and nothing is more important than family. Maybe he signed with the tigers in the first place because he is a tigers fan? Some people actually have a favorite team you know.

I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!
