Iggy just keeps on giving.

Shame there won't be any Iggy porn to watch this year. Drew would be a pretty great fit there now.

Right now, we have picks 26 and 33 in rounds 1 and 1a rounds. 
 
If I'm interpreting this right, Drew to the Tigers would change that to picks 25, 32, and 34 33 (h/t Bigpupp).

How the hell do shin splints cause him to miss 6 months? Compartment syndrome & surgery?

Comp picks should be done consecutively I believe

Are the Tigers trying to get Drew on a one year deal?

I'll have to change the title to Iggy Forlorn.

 
Nevertheless, the draft pick situation would go from good to great.

This would have been one of the top-5 non-Red Sox injuries that could have made me sad this season.  I love watching this kid play shortstop, and missing a season of him is going to suck.

Couldn't agree more.  Although, if they sign Drew and end that soap opera, I'll have to admit I'll be happy.

Very disappointing. I love watching the kid play shortstop. Hopefully he'll make a full recovery.
