It's a crapshoot to figure out who to trade, Floyd or Danks, and which one has the most value at this point.

 

I guess Cooper would have a lot better feel than anyone.

 

 

By the way, was there ever any "falling out" between Hudson and Cooper or "miscommunication/lack of communication"?

You just wonder about how someone with such a great eye for talent would give up on the guy after just 3 starts? Did he have a bad reputation in the minor league system for not working well with the coaches?

 

Gio Gonzalez, that one was on KW...but the Hudson deal is mystifying. How much of it was Cooper thinking he could max out Jackson's potential versus uncertainty out of what they could get out of Hudson in Chicago in the heat of a pennant race against an offense like Minnesota's in 2010.

 

I'm going to assume the organization felt there was better talent and he was expendable.

 

Detroit is now tied with Boston for the second best record in the AL. Only 3 1/2 behind NY.

 

Guess the 2011 Tigers are nowhere near the chokers some people on this board suggested since Detroit "ALWAYS" fades.

I'm going to assume the organization felt there was better talent and he was expendable.

 

I don't know about that assumption. Better talent? You mean like when they shipped Rowand/Young out because they thought Brian Anderson was ready?

I would believe that over a falling out.
