What an outfield!

The Tigers have 3 catchers playing MLB(tm) level ball - McCann, Avila, and our old friend John Hicks, who is currently hitting like he wants a better job; he'd been playing 1B on the Tigers just until Miguel Cabrera got well, but got sent down to Toledo when Miggy was activated. From what I've seen and heard of Hicks, I hope Jerry is talking with the senior Avila. Hicks' hitting has certainly pumped up his value, but a couple of good prospects, especially young and fast ones (Powell? Miller? Bishop?) might be tempting to the Tigers, and a late-blooming Hicks who is willing to be a well-used (60-40?) BU to Zunino would certainly help. And the fact that he can play 1B passably well is the cherry on top.
