Some interesting reads to start the year:
Winter is over, and baseball is here at last - Bless You Boys Tigers open camp ready to defend AL Central | tigers.com Detroit Tigers' mindset hasn't changed: They expect to win Dombrowski dismisses idea that Tigers' time has passed Brad Ausmus talks about division race, Miguel Cabrera, Alex Avila and other Detroit Tigers topics | MLive.com The Ice is Melting: A Tigers Preview - Bless You Boys BTW, I am no Randy! I will not keep this thread up anywhere remotely close to what he did (where are you, Randy?)

Hanrahan to have TJ.
Stinks for him. I tell the kids sooner --- mostly very very sooner -- or later they are all going to have to see the day they cannot play anymore so they should enjoy it. I'd start a Royals thread but no one else besides me cares. |

The Cubs signed Phil Coke to a minor league deal. Something tells me the curse has ended

I love the Tigers ST uniform and cap. Watching Price today looked like a modern version of a newsreel or film from the 1930's.

I dislike the road gray crown cap. I feel as though they are warming us up for a permanent change to that. Boy, do I hope I'm wrong.

I was thinking over the weekend. I wonder if there's any way we could get Justin to trade girlfriends with John Legend

Hey, I just got back from vacation and read bad news....or good for you guys.....well, it's all perspective...
I read that Miguel Cabrera is in the best shape he's been since the Marlins days. If so, may I iask, what is his favorite junk food because I am pretty sure I could get my town to send him all he can eat. |

Ugh! Iglesius is hitting a whopping .091 this spring. Still sticking to my prediction that Dombrowski runs him out of town by mid May. Defense is boring and brings few headlines. Of course, this will mean we received absolutely nothing for Avisail Garcia.

I don't think anyone should be surprised if Iglesias becomes the worst hitting shortstop in the game. That's been predicted since the very beginning. But personally, I don't care about boring, so much as winning, and if he is at (-1.0 oWAR) + (+3.0 dWAR) = 2.0 WAR for the season, that's a far sight better than ending up at (+1.0 oWAR) + (-3.0 dWAR) = -2.0 WAR, and there are replacement shortstops that can give you that.
