Struggling Tigers Preoccupied With WWE Divas?
October 25th, 2006 by Michael StephensDetroit Tigers outfielder Curtis Granderson enjoyed himself a fine rookie season, but he, like many of his teammates, who trail 2-1 in the Fall Classic, is struggling in the World Series. The reason?
Probably St. Louis Cardinals pitching, which has really stepped it up. But Perhaps a visit to this week’s WWE Smackdown tapings in the Motor City wasn’t the best idea… especially considering how distracting certain WWE Divas can be. No wonder he can’t find his way on base…
On the left, we see Granderson getting cozy with Layla El. On the right, teammate Joel Zumaya and Granderson both pose with Kelly Kelly. One can only wonder if Ivan Rodriguez and ALCS MVP Placido Polanco (also hitless in three games against St. Louis) were also in attendance — and if these sultry divas are somehow in kahoots with Cardinals manager Tony LaRussa, who’s looking for any advantage he can get (especially in the midst of Gamblergate).
Granderson, 25. refers to himself as a huge WWE fan and considers DXX, the Ultimate Warrior and WWE Hall of Famer Junkyard Dog as his favorites.
He says he’s already planning on attending another WWE event in Detroit April 1, the night before the 2007 Major League Baseball season. This may impact his chances of being tabbed to start in the outfield of a certain Sports Truth general manager’s fantasy baseball team for a second consecutive season.
