The 2002 American League MVP award goes to…Tony Clark. Now that the Tigers have waived him, (he was claimed by the Red Sox) he is due to have a huge season. I’m not really knocking the move, I’m just frustrated in general by the Tigers. It appears Damion Easley is also because when told about the news he said he was happy Clark was going to a team who is “consistently trying to win.” And you wonder why there were so many clubhouse problems this year.
In other team transactions, Chris Holt and Heath Murray were waived off the 40 man roster to make room for pitchers Andy Van Hekken, Tim Kalita, and Fernando Rodney.
