Andrew Miller |
The New York Post's Joel Sherman reports that
Detroit Tigers GM Dave Dombrowski thought he had secured the services of lefty reliever Andrew Miller at the trade deadline. In fact, Dombrowski says the Tigers had met the Red Sox demands in a potential deal. Reportedly, Sox GM
Ben Cherington said he needed to check one more option—which turned into Miller to Baltimore for hurler
Eduardo Rodriguez (who has been
more than advertised since joining the Boston organization). Of course, Miller was
originally the property of Detroit, before being dealt to the Marlins in the
Miguel Cabrera deal. The Tigers had to be
extra miffed when Miller shut their powerful lineup down in two of the three Orioles wins in the ALDS.
