Jhonny just signed with the cardinals, i think it would have been nice to keep him as he and iglesias would have been nice to have at SS, however his range has been depleted, he's only gettin older, and honestly i don't think this is the last time he gets in trouble with PED's.

THe money that he is getting blows my mind. And its the Cardinals who know a thing or two about getting good fits. I'm pretty much wondering what did i miss with him

ya i might have to eat my words, Cardinals always seem to get players that i think are past there primes but just thrive on that team. i still think we made the right decision by not paying him , and Cardinals are going to regret it if not this year then next

at the money hes getting, YES the Tigers made the right decision. Knowing how well the Cardinals do, this signing confuses me.

I'm a little taken aback that he got that kind of money. I was thinking he'd be a solid option because I thought other teams would be shying away from him. Clearly I was way off.

i am more worried about what we'll offer a guy like Choo, all these outfielders we are looking at are all in their 30's looking for multiple year contracts. i don't understand how GM's looks at players that are currently on the down side of their prime and wants to pay them for 5 years when their production isn't realistically going to be maintained

Paying a cheater like him is a joke. Good riddance.
