After the 2009 season the Tigers, D'Backs and Yankees made a three team trade.

The Tigers sent Curtis Granderson to the Yankees for Austin Jackson and Phil Coke.

The Tigers sent Edwin Jackson to the D'Backs for Max Scherzer and Daniel Schlereth.

The Yankees sent Ian Kennedy to the D'Backs.

Granderson is an MVP candidate for the Yankees.

Kennedy is 15-4 for the D'Backs and Jackson is with the Cardinals (Ithink).

Jackson plays center field for the Tigers and is excellent defensively and improving at the plate. Scherzer is 13-7 and eats up a lot of innings. Coke has been solid in relief but failed as a starter earlier this season. Schlereth has been inconsistent, but has a lively arm.

From a Tiger fan perspective I'm happy with the results. They got good young talent in exchange for two players they may have lost to free agency. But it also seems that the Yankees and D'Backs did well in the deal. Maybe with the exception of Jackson not lasting in Arizona.

Thoughts?

AZ is thrilled to DEATH with that deal. Kennedy is a legitimate ace, and the Yanks would probably LOVE to have him back right now....Jackson (Edwin) was a stop-gap answer and I'm not sad he's gone....I miss Scherzer, but we've got enough arms in our farm system to last us a long while...

LOVE the trade from AZ's perspective.

AZ is happy with the trade. We love Kennedy.

And we traded Edwin Jackson for Daniel Hudson, who is our #2 starter.

Remember - we traded Edwin Jackson to the White Sox for Daniel Hudson

Wow...I'd totally forgotten about that, Jon!

Nice! I didn't realize that. Now both he and Jackson are gone from Chicago.

Kennedy now 16-4. NL Cy Young winner, or have they shipped the award to Philly already?

Coke steps up big with a two inning save that lets the Tigers rest Valverde and Benoit.

Bump.

Loving this trade more and more!

I like Edwin Jackson.
