Let Granderson Loose

In the offseason, the Tigers have let their center fielder roam freely through the streets of Beijing.

At points last season, I was so frustrated with the play of Mr. Edgar Renteria (I’m sure we all were), that I wanted anyone to replace him at shortstop position. When Ramon Santiago did that though, I felt, at least in sperts, that he could be a capable starter on our squad? Was I way [...]
