Today The Tigers acquired SS Edgar Renteria from Braves in exchange for RHP Jair Jurrjens and OF Gorkys Hernandez. Jurrjens started seven games for the Tigers in 2007, compiling a 3-1 record and 4.70 ERA (30.2IP/16ER). In 19 starts with Double-A Erie last season, Jurrjens finished 7-5 with a 3.20 ERA (112.2IP/40ER).
Hernandez spent the entire 2007 season with Class A West Michigan and he batted .293 (141-for-481) with 84 runs scored, 25 doubles, five triples, four home runs, 50 RBIs and 54 stolen bases in 124 games.

To me, I take this a a salary cut. I foresee The Braves using the freed up money on Tom Glavine or a CenterFielder. I really don't like seeing the braves aquire young prospects. But I love to see them part with a player that hit over.330 in 2007, especially if they trade him out of our dividion. I hope these two prospects flop like free willy in the ocean...
