Farnsworth and Pudge Trade

The Detroit Tigers have traded Pudge to the Yankees for Kyle Farnsworth.

Fantasy wise this isn't a huge deal. Pudge is an okay catcher and only has value because he is a catcher and provides a decent average (.295). The biggest part of the deal is Farnsworth because of the closing situation in Tigers clubhouse. With the Tigers demoting Jones and promoting Rodney as a closer, they are still far from finding a solution. Farnsworth has some experience as a closer and fantasy owners should pick up Farnsworth in speculation.
