Tigers, Drew Near Deal?

It has been reported that J.D. Drew is nearing a five year, $55 million deal with the Detroit Tigers. Although I'm not going to personally get excited about this, please feel free. The Tigers have been "near" deals with Glaus, Finley, and Pavano, and have only been disappointed in the end.

If Drew signs, they should be able to fill atleast 120-140 games worth of good solid hitting and outfielding. Drew has been the talk of short seasons, and high price tags. Personally, I say if they can sign him, go for it. What can the Tigers lose? Insure the contract, take a risk. It's better than what we have now.

Would you sign? For less maybe? Not at all? Comments welcomed.
