It’s still too early to say for certain. But it looks like the Detroit Tigers might have found somebody special “with a high ceiling” in the Shane Greene trade.

The Tigers sent Greene to the Atlanta Braves on July 31 for left-handed pitcher Joey Wentz and outfielder Travis Demeritte.

Immediately fans freaked out: Why are they getting all this pitching? Why don’t they bring in more bats? Why didn’t they get more prospects? I understand all of those questions. They are valid concerns, although you can never have too much pitching.
