Should Jason Isringhausen Spend 2009 On Detroit's DL?

The story of the Detroit Tigers has been pretty much the same over the last two seasons. In 2007, their bullpen cost them a chance to reach the playoffs and get back to the World Series, and in 2008 it was the bullpen bringing down a team that many thought would be the best in the American League after a winter trade for Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis. So obviously general manager Dave Dombrowski's to-do list this offseason consists of fixing the Tiger bullpen if he wants his team to have a chance in 2009.

It's too bad that the Tigers missed out on all the best closer candidates this winter, though. Francisco Rodriguez became a Met. Brian Fuentes became an Angel, and Kerry Wood signed with the Indians. So with the big names gone, who should the Tigers bring in to compete with/provide insurance for Joel Zumaya and Fernando Rodney? Well, if you ask the Detroit Free Press' Jon Paul Morosi, he'll tell you Jason Isringhausen.
