Who is Marc Krauss and how good is he?

The Tigers claimed first baseman and left fielder Marc Krauss off the waiver wire today, after the Tampa Bay Rays placed him there on July 4. Obviously, Dave Dombrowski is trying to fill a Miguel Cabrera-sized hole at the not-so-hot corner, and since Krauss is a first baseman whose name at least starts with "M," we're well on our way to fixing the flat tire and getting this bus back on the road.

But who is Marc Krauss?
