The Atlanta Braves traded Cameron Maybin to the Tigers this evening in exchange for left-handed pitchers Ian Krol and Gabe Speier.
Maybin came to the Braves as a part of the Craig Kimbrel/Melvin Upton Jr. trade to San Diego and quickly claimed the center field job as his own. In his first 80 games the former top prospect seemed to have found the form that earn him that rating posting a .289/.356/.418/.774 line including 8 homers, 10 doubles and 44 RBI.
