Was Curtis's trade in vain?

Okay, Mr. Dombrowski.  I gave you credit on the Granderson trade.  You traded awayDetroit’s most popular athlete, but you did so to get younger and cut payroll.  It made a lot of sense.  Until now.

If you’re going to cut payroll by trading away Granderson and Jackson, why in the world would you sign Jose Valverde to a 2 year, $14 million contract?  I understand the Tigers needed a closer, but this isn’t the right way to go about it.

Hopefully, you have a plan that I’m just not seeing.  At this point, I’m a bit skeptical.  Please prove me wrong.
