eh.
Wilken Ramirez I like. Don't see a reason for the rest since they can't contribute.
If Jeremy Bonderman is starting games this postseason after missing the whole year, playoffs aren't going to matter. Bonine, Fein and Ryan all sucked while up with the team this year.

Doesn't really fit here, but sort of does. Why are other AL Central teams getting rid of players down the stretch? Cleveland has traded away a number of their good players (Martinez, Lee) and Chicago has just traded Jim Thome to the Dodgers. WTF? I mean, it helps us, but what are they thinking? Chicago is still technically in the playoff race.

I'm pretty happy to see the Tigers followed my advice from just about 10 days ago in the Huff thread and called up Dlugach, as subbing him in for Everett is the #1 best thing we can do right now.
