Detroit surprised some around baseball when they traded for both Barnett and Ed Stewart (Pittsburgh) at the beginning of November. As it turns out, Detroit never intended to retain Barnett and were immediately looking for another trading partner.

Well not necessarily true that we never intended to keep Barnett. With Stewart though we did have duplication but it could have worked. Detroit traded for them both with the idea one could be a key piece in another deal. It was on the Chiefs putting Coles out there that made Detroit go forward moving Barnett before he ever played a game for the Dynamo’s.
We are just trying to play catch up to your Chiefs in the standings
