Yeah, the Tigers has the best rotation (on paper) for a couple years, you see how many WS rings that got them.

I am sure there is an outcome in these trades ( Sherzer, Clippard etc.) that have not yet become evident so I guess I have to trust that they are of sane mind. However I do not see how we ( Nats) have become a better team than last year?

Makes you wonder why anybody would be a Mets fan.

Football is finally over. Bring on baseball.

I'll get interested in baseball after the Blackhawks win the Stanley Cup.

Multitask Tom! I can see the headlines now, Blackhawks and White Sox both win Championships in 2015!

icehog3 · 02-01-2015, 10:46 PM

I don't know about the Sox winning it all, but they certainly should give Detroit a run for the division.

Tigers are still the favorite to win the central and rightly so. It'll be their bullpen that does them in again I think. They can always get some arms via trade but it doesn't seem they are looking.

icehog3 · 02-01-2015, 11:24 PM

You are right, Nate, I dunno what Dombrowski is thinking. Hopefully he makes a couple moves by April. I think the Sox will be right in the thick of it, besides signing Soto I like all their moves this off-season.

icehog3 · 02-07-2015, 11:53 AM

VMart out indefinitely with a torn miniscus. Well, that hurts.

02-07-2015, 12:23 PM

That sucks Tom. Who's the replacement? Also, an interesting note I read this morning.. Miggy who will be 32 soon, and Vmart who's 36, have a combined $330,000,000 invested in them by the Tigers for 2015-2023 seasons. Lotta dolla make ya holla. Massive dollars for guys on the wrong side of 30. I have to believe most Tiger fans will hate those contracts in a couple years.

icehog3 · 02-07-2015, 02:21 PM

I was happy when they signed VMart for 4 years this winter, Nate, bacause all indications were that we would lose him. 2nd in MVP voting last year, offensively he was the heart and soul last season....but second major knee injury in 3 years is killer. Replacement? Nobody I know.

Miggy will need to return to 2013 form, and the Tigers will have to put a threat behind him in the order, or it will be more than the bullpen sinking the Tigers.

02-07-2015, 02:26 PM

I think Adam Dunn is available

Can we have Avasil Garcia back? Or that bum you have at first base, what's his name....Joey Abreu?

Tigers still have a power lineup Tom. And really, if Miggy has a similar year to 2013, the Tigers will be fine... Other than the bullpen. But then again, a bullpen is so hard to predict, maybe they are dominate this year.

icehog3 · 02-07-2015, 07:12 PM

I guess that's why they play the games, eh Nate?
