Thanks, lewis. And...ummm...I hate to tell you this, but the way I wrote that sentence about Gibson led you to believe he's a Tiger. I just edited it to make it clearer. Josh actually plays for the Red Sox.
The Tigers do have the makings of a championship team, although their window of opportunity might be closing. Several of their key players, guys like Charlie Gehringer and Cool Papa Bell, are in their mid-thirties now. Their pitching staff is fairly young, however, with Schoolboy Rowe as their ace, and Greenberg and Wells are in their primes.
