Trammell is a six time All-Star who played shortstop for the Detroit Tigers for 20 years, never playing for another team.
He played in 2,293 games finished his career with 2,365 hits, and 1,003 runs batted in.
In 1984 and 1987, Trammell saw post season action.
In 1984 the Tigers defeated the Kansas City Royals in the American League Championship series and went on to defeat the San Diego Padres in the World Series.
Trammell hit .450 against the Padres and belted two homers, driving in six runs and earned the World Series Most Valuable Player Award.
Trammell is also a four time Gold Glove winner and a three time Silver Slugger Award.
After ending his playing days, Trammell managed the Tigers from 2003 to 2005.
Many believe and hope that Trammell will be voted into the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame.
Currently he is the bench coach for the Arizona Diamondbacks, which is where I sent the autograph request. He responded in only 54 days.

Patterson now lives in Texas and he responded to an autograph request in only eight days.
