Tigers on the Prowl

Dayn Perry pens an optimistic column on the Detroit Tigers, noting that the offense looks above average. Just to note, there is a typo in the table presented. The first difference (for Ivan Rodriguez) should be +28, not +88.

One of the biggest problems for the Tigers last year was getting guys on base. The lineup has moderate power, and moderate batting average skills, but there are a lot of guys on that team whose value is heavily tied up in BA (Pudge was the extreme example last year).

The Tigers were a very frustrating team to follow for most of the last 15 years or so, but I like the current club. I'm looking forward to seeing full seasons from Granderson and Shelton, and to see what happens with Verlander and Zumaya.
