August 25, 2010 According to the Detroit News, Johnny Damon's Tiger teammates are "thrilled" the veteran outfielder has chosen to stay in Detroit.
August 25, 2010 Boston Globe columnist Dan Shaughnessy cannot believe that Tigers outfield Johnny Damon chose to stay in Detroit over Boston. "Think about it," he begins. "For the next five weeks, you (as in Damon) could live in downtown Boston and your wife could shop on Newbury Street. Or you could live in downtown Detroit, amid the boarded-up buildings and the proverbial skeleton frames of burned-out Chevrolets. Is this really a tough call?"
August 24, 2010 According to MLB.com's Jason Beck, Johnny Damon has decided to remain with the Detroit Tigers. Claimed by the Red Sox on waivers, he had a chance to return to Boston.
August 24, 2010 As of Tuesday afternoon, Johnny Damon is still leaning toward turning down the opportunity to rejoin the Boston Red Sox, according to the Boston Globe.
August 24, 2010 Expected to reject his "trade" to the Red Sox, Johnny Damon most likely would have accepted a deal to either the Yankees or Rays, according to the Detroit News.
