Alan Trammell's unsettled job status that has made September so dispiriting for those inside the Tigers' clubhouse. Pudge Rodriguez's discontent -- his words speak of a player bent on changing addresses by 2006 -- has angered the team in ways that have made the Trammell watch almost a secondary issue. "It's pride, it's your job," Trammell said Tuesday night. "And if anybody says that they want to go home, that they can't do this anymore, then go home, but know you're not gonna get paid." Trammell wasn't referring to anyone, specifically. But it has been impossible this week to not interpret his more stinging words as being directed at Rodriguez, who railed again last weekend about his disgust at playing for a team that is about to endure its 12th consecutive losing season. "I hate losing, I'm tired of losing," Rodriguez said. "I'm not used to playing like this. I don't like to play like this. I've been here two years and I don't see any changes. It's hard to be on a ballclub like that, because I'm not used to that."
