Brandon Inge

I've always followed the career of Tigers third baseman Brandon Inge since I saw him play in the minors for the Jamestown Jammers of the NY-Penn League. He was a catcher back then. Jammers...sounds like a basketball team. I digress.
Anyway, two years ago, Inge was an All Star. He belted 27 homers and knocked in 84 runs. Never a high average guy, he was always productive and displayed a good glove at third.
The Tigers yesterday Inge was designated for assignment. If no one picks him up in 10- days he said he would go to the minors. Inge was hitting just .177 with 1 homer and 17 RBI's. From All Star to unwanted in two years. Baseball is the most humbling of games.
