Posted in the other thread, but for people who want to talk about options in here, please read this first:

Here is another post on options, specific to the Tigers. Tigerdog1 is a really good poster on the blessyouboys blog. I would treat this information as correct.

Not over MLB.com I wouldn't
Besides, Raburn's official MLB service time number prior to this season was 4.109 years meaning he would get to 5 until right before next season.

The option is for the season...it was already excersised. He is now out of options and next season he'd need to clear waivers to be shuttle to the minors.

I can't find an answer to what happens if your 5-year hits in the middle of a season in which an option was already exercised. I have read multiple sources that say Raburn's 5-year hits this Summer in the middle of the season. There was a lot of talk about the timing of it prior to exercising the option. It would be a good question. I can't figure out for the life of me why Raburn is back now otherwise.

The 4.109 number Is right, he'll hit 5 sometime in early Septmember.

Dantonio is in Southfield speaking at te SBSM camp today. All the coaches and Hollis were in Chicago yesterday taping a special for the B1G.
We'll get some juicy MD quotes later...someone at SBSM asked him about the M/MSU rivalry.

That wasnt the Panda...he was removed for D.
J. Arias made the play...he moved from SS to 3rd in the 7th.

From May 29 when he was optioned to Toledo:
"The move also has a business aspect, which would affect the Tigers' financial options, with regard to Raburn's future in Detroit. On June 8, Raburn will reach his fifth year of service time in Major League Baseball. At which time, he will be out of options and will be able to refuse any future Minor League assignment. In that scenario, Detroit will be stuck between the proverbial "rock and a hard place."

An you find me an MLB source, because I've seen a ton of pro journalists make the mistake...as I said in my first post.
Guy who wrote that is a blogger.

Saw what appeared to be a bigger player, assumed it was KFP, I don't ever see the Giants.
Sure seemed like a less athletic guy than Jhonny Peralta...

Anyone else think the Tigers are show-casing Raburn? ....and his double in the top of the 2nd might help in that regard.
