The Tigers don't get to the World Series last year without Jackson and Coke. Let's not forget they got Scherzer from Arizona in the same deal. All three of them were crucial pieces of the team last year. Jackson is a top-three center fielder, and Coke has done good work for the Tigers regardless of struggles against righties. Scherzer is at worst a good number three and at best a top of the rotation guy when he is pitching well.
Meanwhile, Granderson has devolved from nearly a five tool player to basically a DH who can only hit home runs. He still can't hit for average and now he can't stay healthy. Plus, the Yankees have gone nowhere in the postseason since that trade. I don't miss him at all.
Austin Jackson is a dime a dozen type player. He is the equivalent of De Aza from the Sox. A decent player, but I'm not gonna try and act like he's anything more than that.

#-O Chalking this up as White Sox fan trolling and moving on.
