EvilJester99 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Tigers DFA Josh Anderson By Ben Nicholson-Smith [July 24 at 9:30am CST] The Tigers designated outfielder Josh Anderson for assignment to make room for Carlos Guillen, according to MLB.com's Jason Beck. Anderson, 26, hit .242/.282/.315 with no homers in 74 games with the Tigers. He played all three outfield positions for the Tigers, and defended well in limited innings.

nitetrain8601 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Sox should jump on that honestly. I don't see Pods keeping up the production, but I would love to be wrong and have a logjam in the OF. It's a good problem to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Dewayne Wise is going no where. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scenario Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 We've already got an outfielder named Anderson who can't hit. Why would we need two of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 QUOTE (scenario @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 11:47 AM) We've already got an outfielder named Anderson who can't hit. Why would we need two of them? This one's fast and left handed. He's like the better hitting version of DeWayne Wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Fireworks Man Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Because Wise made that catch yesterday we're probably stuck with him for the rest of the season. Josh Anderson would be much better in that role, but it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Josh Anderson would be a very good upgrade over Wise. Anderson is solid defensively, is probably faster, is a better base stealer, and a better hitter (although it's not tough to be a better hitter than Wise). Thanks for that catch Wise, but it'll be a shame if he gets a free pass for the rest of the year because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
