08:12 AM ET 02.04 | Torii Hunter thrived while hitting between Mike Trout and Albert Pujols in Anaheim, and the Tigers can hope for the came kind of production. [Said Hunter:] "It's a good fit for me." Anaheim appeared to be a good fit for Hunter too. ... But in conversations with General Manager Jerry Dipoto, Hunter said he was led to believe the Angels were financially handcuffed by the $42 million they owe reserve outfielder Vernon Wells. Their offer to Hunter was for $5 million. ... Hunter said he was "trying to be funny" in his ["money hidden under a mattress"] tweet, adding that the Angels organization "is A-1; I had a blast there." But he also felt misled. "Just tell me straight up that you don't want me," Hunter said, "and I'll be fine with that."

wiseup: Angels didn't wantto pay you what you wanted. That's the business of MLB. Get over it. Voice your displeasure with Angels when you play them. Then let your bat and glove avenge theAngels decicion to let you go.
