Brooklyn Dodgers who became Tigers

[Paulmcall1]

I was noticing the other day how many washed up Dodgers the Tigers
picked up over the years.
Rockey Bridges
Roger Craig (good coach for 84 team)
Don Demeter (bad trade for Bunning)
Charlie Dressen (died on the job). He didn't think of the right
thing in 1951.
Chico Fernandez (who landed back with the Mets)
Clem Labine (14 games-0 and 3 in 1960)
Sandy Amoros (65 games -.149 avg)
Johnny Podres (3-1 and 3.84 and 1 save) not bad
Can you think of any others?

[The Commissioner]

Ralph Branca (7-10 over parts of '53+'54)
Babe Herman (20 AB in'37)
Don Lund ('49,+'52-'54)

Pete Wojey :

1954 Dodgers 1-1 27.1 innings. 3.25 ERA


1956 and 1957 Tigers 5.3 combined innings over his 2 seasons in the Motor City.

Though he never played for either team, HOF announcer Ernie Harwell comes to mind as someone with a connection to both Brooklyn and Detroit.

[The Commissioner]

Tuck Stainback is another one to add to the list.

[The Real McCoy]

Let's not forget the big brother of "Harry the Hat", Fred, known locally as "Dixie" or the "People's Cherce"..... great player, so/so humanitarian.

Detroit picked up Ivan DeJesus in 1988 for a few ABs. Are you looking for players the Dodgers traded to the Tigers, or just players the Tigers obtained who had also once played for the Dodgers?
