    2016 Tigers

    Underachieved. We had a $200mil payroll and couldn't even land a WC spot. We had a healthy JV and healthy Miggy to anchor the rotation and lineup. That's WAY more than most any other team has to start with, and that's before you mention Kinsler, JD, VMart, Upton (who was rather disappointing...

    Vegas sets piston win total at 45.5

    Seems about right. Top ten in wins, and should be a playoff team this year. I like what SVG is doing here. This is a fun team to watch again.

    Game 5: Eagles @ Lions Thread

    I have been mostly "Lions free" this season. I watched the first quarter of game one and the second half of the Packers loss, only because they were on TV where I was, but nothing else. No college football, no other pro football, and very little Lions. I also tuned out on politics and the...

    Tigers looking to sign JD Martinez to extension

    Good. Get it done. He does tend to go cold in spurts, but always seems to come back on fire after a day off or DL trip. He's a hell of a hitter.

    Fulmer, Boyd & Norris

    I hated that we had to make the trades, but liked the returns we got. Early indications on the trades are looking very good. All three of these guys look like they'll be rotation worthy (or even aces), and Jones also looks like he'll be a contributor soon.

    Are the Tigers a team in transition?

    I just don't see JV, VMart, or Miggy being moved. Mr. I loves his stars, even when they are on the other side of peak. If they are going to swing a trade, I'd think it might be with Iggy, McCann, and/or a young arm or two to start with. For whatever reason, Iglesias seems to be in the dog...

    Tigers will bring Ausmus back

    I'd give Avila more rope (by no means a ringing endorsement), but Ausmus should have been fired last year. Extending him after he's shown nothing is ridiculous.

    Tigers vs. mariners 6-23-16 Game 73

    Glad I saw this. Didn't realize we were playing a day game today.

    Tigers @ Royals 6-16-2016 Game 66

    What a hitter he is. We've been blessed to have some real amazing offensive players in recent years. Miggy, Victor, and Magglio being the best pure hitters, but also guys like Guillen, Sheffield, Pudge, Polanco, Cespedes, JD, and others who were capable of carrying a team for weeks at a time.

    Tigers vs. whitesox 6-13-16 Game 63

    Ugly loss last night. Boyd sucked, as did Parnell. Our offense was going good, and Greene looked great again. Gotta win games like this.

    Blue Jays @ Tigers 6-8-2016 Game 59

    Dud of a start by Zimm, but whatever. He gets a pass on that given his prior great starts.

    Blue Jays @ Tigers 6-7-2016 Game 58

    Ugh... really?

    Blue Jays @ Tigers 6-7-2016 Game 58

    I didn't understand resting Maybin and McCann when both have been hitting well of late. It all worked out as you said, but his decision making is puzzling sometimes. Ride the guys who are cold as ice, then sit them once they heat up. I don't get it.

    Blue Jays @ Tigers 6-7-2016 Game 58

    Throwing at Miggy's head was a mistake. You piss him off, he makes you pay. Great win!

    Yordano Again

    Almost reminds me of Titus Young. Guys is a loose cannon and doesn't seem to understand that the guys he messes with would crush him like a bug.
