Jose Mesa was released today.  It says a lot because the Tigers pen had been doing pretty poorly so for them to but bait on him now goes a long way towards showing how poorly he pitched.  It’s also nice for Dombrowski to realize his mistake and cut bait.  Mesa shouldn’t have been signed but at least now he won’t be a poor option coming out of the pen.

In his place, Fernando Rodney was pulled off of the DL.  Hopefully Rodney can get back into his 2006 form, sans the walks.
