Underdog? Most I have seen don't think the Tigers are the underdog. How can a team composed of a large number of AAA ball players at season start and the lowest salary in the major leagues be the favorite? For a large number of these kids its there first year and first post season experience. I have heard many think they may fold if they go down 0-1. Which is a very strong possibility. Is Tiger media trying to play the underdog card?
