St. Louis — Free-agent catcher Gerald Laird and the St. Louis Cardinals have reached agreement on a $1 million, one-year contract. The 31-year-old Laird hit .207 with five home runs and 25 RBIs last season in a part-time role with Detroit. He's expected to be a backup to Yadier Molina with the Cardinals.
This is addition by subtraction. Nice work by Dombrowski but G$ will still be missed. He's one of those guys that's so easy to make fun of cause he sucks real hard but you still gotta love him cause he's always down to talk mad shit.
Good team guy to have around but his lack of ability at the plate outweighed his defensive attributes.
Farewell sweet prince.
PS - The Tigs sold pitcher Alfredo Figaro to the Orix Buffaloes of the Japanese Baseball League today but it's hardly getting any press because of Magglio and G$. Dude with the sweetest name in the history of the Tigers just got Jim Joyced on what should've been the happiest day of his life. Totallyfuckinbelievable.
