Maroth says goodbye

posted in 2007 season, trades |

I didn’t know Mike Maroth had a blog until there was a link on Motown Sports today. On it, Mike posted his going away message to Tigers fans. It’s still kind of sad to see the longtime Tiger and fan favorite go, of course, and his blog post just confirms why.

And my life the past six years in Detroit have been something I will never forget. This team gave me my chance in the big leagues and you helped carry me through some very difficult times. So many people doubted me and our team during the hard times a few years back but the Tiger fans never lost hope. You stood by us and cheered for us to go back out on the field and just keep fighting. That’s what Tiger fans do, they don’t quit. I was strengthened and inspired by your words of encouragement in the letters you sent me over the years and I will never forget your loyalty to Detroit.

And it goes on.

Mike is scheduled to pitch on ESPN2 for the Cards Monday.
