Tigers Sign Craig Monroe, Avoid Arbitration
February 3rd, 2006 | Brian

The Tigers signed outfielder Craig Monroe to a one year, $2.8 million deal. This was the Tigers’ sole remaining arbitration case so unless they sign a free agent, we pretty much know what they’re payroll is going to be next year (which I’ll look up and find for you).

Monroe’s one of those guys that I kind of wish we’d trade. He does well enough to ensure himself a starting outfield spot even though I think a guy like Curtis Granderson would be better out there if given a chance. And while Monroe did put up some solid traditional stats (20 homeruns, 89 RBIs), he has a career .313 OBP and his WHIP actually declined by over 50 points from 2004. So with that, I wouldn’t have minded the Tigers getting what they could for him before he has the one off year that causes his value to fall off of a cliff.

Since we have him though, hopefully he’s for real and we can expect 20-25 homeruns and 80-90 RBIs every year.



Crazy….well that’s Craig Monrooooooooe

So many pitches, but just one stroooooooke

Maybe

It’s not too laaaaaate

To throw Craig, one right over the plaaaaaaate
