Well, get ready for another season of Detroit Tigers baseball. We have been spoiled the last couple of years. The team actually has expectations and unfortunately so do the fans. Can Mo Town survive another sports team to fail miserably like the hapless Lions? Are we just a hockey town? I don't have the answer to that, but I do get excited for Tiger baseball. As a proclaimed member of the Red Sox Nation, I still love the Tigers. I watch most games and even try to get to the ballpark. I lived in misery because all my neighbors are "Tigers for Life". So my sports life is much better when the Tigers are winning.
The team has come along ways from all the 100 loss seasons. This team has some serious fire power in its lineup. With Cabrera, Maggs, Sheff, and Granderson, this team has offensive skills. The key to there success will be the starting pitching and the bullpen. Can the D-Train return to form? Can Bonderman bounce back? Can Verlander become the fire baller of old? What will Edwin Jackson Bring to the team? Can Rodney and Zumya regain the powerful control they once had? Will Brandon Lyon be a reliable closer?
This team has a lot of questions concerning its pitching. So the Tigers will ROAR as there pitching roars. Let's all just hope they don't regain the title of laughable losers they once were. And for crying out loud can we please have a winning record against the royals this year!!
