Normally I am a firm believer in the axiom of waiting 40 games before taking a hard look at what you have, but the Tigers LF situation is looking poor and if the status quo remains could be flat out awful.
Jacques Jones: AVG.184, 0HR, 3RBI
although, he did muscle up and ground out for a RBI yesterday.
Marcus Thames: AVG.172, 1HR, 3RBI
it is encouraging that Marcus has only 1K in 29 AB.
Is it time to look elsewhere or within for some kind of LF solution? I say if Brandon keeps hitting, and Granderson can return looking the way Granderson does perhaps move Cabrera into LF. Maybe see if Sheff wants any OF time, and platoon Guillen/Cabrera at DH/1B? Is Jason Bay still on the trading block?
I am not sure what but if this keeps up I would even humor bringing Barroid in here to DH while Sheff spends some time in LF.
