We doubt this will have the same results that Ken Holland’s now-legendary benching of Goalie Chris Osgood this winter: Tiger Manager Jim Leyland has finally laid down the law and benched slugger Magglio Ordonez for poor performance.
Ordonez has only managed two home runs and 22 RBIs this season.
None of the reports of the benching have included comments from Ordonez, though it is rumored that he will use this time to express support for Venezuealan dictator Hugo Chavez.
