DETROIT (Smiley League News Service) -- The Detroit Tigers today acquired
some much needed bullpen strength for the stretch run, acquiring Hoyt
Wilhelm and Bob Priddy from the Chicago White Sox, along with third baseman
Bill Melton. In exchange, the Tigers sent young southpaw John Hiller to
Chicago, along with slick-fielding third baseman Don Wert and reliever Wade
Blasingame.

"We believe that with the addition of Wilhelm in the pen and Melton on the
bench, we have a realistic shot at holding off the rest of the league,"
Tigers' owner/GM Alan Boodman said in a press conference on Tuesday. "We
hated giving up Hiller, and Wert has been a reliable hand for us for some
time now, but I think Melton will come on next year and give us some pop
from the hot corner."

For his part, White Sox' owner/GM Ben Lea seemed defensive in his interview
with this reporter on Tuesday. "I'd be hesitant to call this a 'white flag'
trade, as you boys in the press are so quick to say. We picked up a live
arm in John Hiller, who we hope will be around for a long time here. But,
let's be realistic. We're 12 games out of first right now, and anybody who
thinks we can catch the Tigers by the end of the season is crazy."

Tony Taylor figures to start getting more playing time at third for Detroit,
with Melton filling in occasionally, a move which, while somewhat damaging
to the left-side infield defense for the Bengals, will almost certainly
boost the offense.
