Player Notes

November 17, 2008
The Detroit Tigers are thinking about putting Brandon Inge at shortstop should they be unable to fill the void left by Edgar Renteria, reports Peter Gammons of ESPN.com.

Our View:Inge was slated to take over the third base role next season, and he is a slick fielder who was a shortstop in college, so it is not an idea that comes out of nowhere.

September 28, 2008
The AP reports that the Tigers plan to make Brandon Inge their everyday third baseman and to play Carlos Guillen in left field.

Our View:Inge made just one error in 49 starts at third this season. Hopefully, with regular playing time he can improve upon his .203 average from 2008. Don't count on it though. As an everyday player for most of August and September he hit a pitiful .176.

September 28, 2008
Brandon Inge is going to cover third base next season with Carlos Guillen moving to left field, according to the Detroit News.

Our View:Moving Inge to third creates an opening for a starting catcher, but the Tigers have no intention of re-signing Ivan Rodriguez, despite the fact he'll be a free agent. There is already speculation that the club could be interested in Gerald Laird of the Rangers, if made available in a trade.

September 14, 2008
Inge is unlikely to play in Sunday's doubleheader due to his grandfather's funeral, the Tigers' team website reports.

Our View:If he does miss Sunday's games, he will be back with the Tigers on Monday.

July 31, 2008
Brandon Inge has been given the starting catcher's job for the rest of this season and 2009 as well, according to the Detroit Free-Press Inge started out the year seeking a trade because he did not have a position to play on a regular basis.

Our View:Quite an odd year for Inge. No matter what position he plays, however, unless he raises that batting average, he has little use in fantasy baseball.
