Inge to stay in Detroit?


According to Lynn Henning of the Detroit News, 3rd baseman Brandon Inge could remain in Detroit for the 2008 season, even though he's been displaced by newly acquired Miguel Cabrera.

Even though Inge has asked to be traded, Tigers' GM Dave Dombrowki has said that he'll wait for the appropriate trade to move him.

One team that could still be looking for a 3rd baseman are the Los Angeles Angels. The Angels seem content to have Chone Figgins start at the hot corner, but he's not exactly known as the best defensive 3rd baseman. The one thing that could hold up trading Inge, the Tigers signed an extension with him prior to the 2007 season, so he's still owed $19.1M through 2010.
