According to Ken Rosenthal of The Sporting News, Steve Finley may be on the Detroit Tigers' radar. Look, I really like Steve Finley. He had a fine year in 2004, but he's about 100 years old. He's actually 39, but he's still dirt old in baseball terms.
If Finley were the more prototypical leadoff hitter, I might see chasing him down. However, Finley is more of a slugger and I think his power numbers would be diminished at Comerica Park. Anything more than a one year deal would seem crazy to me. In the end, I trust Dave Dombrowski to make the right decision. Besides, it's only a rumor, right?
