Goodbye Mr. Inge

Yesterday the Detroit Tigers traded two minor leaguers to Kansas City for third baseman Wilson Betemit effectively ending third baseman Brandon Inge’s career in Detroit.  To me Brandon Inge is baseball equivalent of a professional wrestler, someone who can play the hero and heel at a giving time. That is what make John Cena one of the most popular wrestlers in the WWE today, although many people cannot stand him from his “hip-hop” days to now becoming a “children’s hero.”  Wrestling purist sometimes questions his wrestling skills, but he had overcome it by putting on great matches. Why I am comparing a wrestler to a baseball player? Simple, it is because in the city of Detroit Brandon Inge is like John Cena; some people hate him for being an average to now below average baseball player, and some people love him for being a great human being. After all Inge had suffer through horrible moments in Tigers’ history, and he had not demanded to be traded or wanted to leave during these points. For that Fans that had defended Inge during moments of poor production as a reward for being loyal. Both Cena and Inge had lived on Hustle, Loyalty, and Respect; but only one will continue to live it longer and the other had to find a place to show that creed.

Yeah, thank you for everything you done...but it's time to move on.
