All season I have been reading about how the Tigers are not going to do anything next year because of bad contracts. The truth is that we will only be able to make a few low level moves, especially with declining attendance this year. I am hopeful, but 2011 will be the season the Tigers have a change to breakout... they sh

We all witnessed Curtis' regression this year as far as his avg. was concerned. (.249 in '09. Down .031 from 2008, and .023 off his career avg. of .272. It may be hard to believe but he brought his vareer strikeout percentage down this season with 141 K's in 631 ab's. It now is at 24 %)
We also saw his struggles against lefthanded pitching. (A .183 BA. By far the

I read that the Tigers are after the Cuban south paw..... Should they throw all the marbles at him and try their hardest to sign him.

Detroit is pretty set in the outfield....although I would prefer Guillen to be the fulltime DH and raburn to get a crack at the LF job. Due to Maggs and Guillens contracts their just isn't a corner OF spot available. Granderson is solid in CF unless he does get dealt....possible but unlikely. How can Detroit generate more offense???
I would like to see Cabrerra get some time back at 3B

Uggh. Trying to turn a DP in the first yesterday scott Sizemoore has a fractured left tibia. No word on how long he will be out for. Mike illitch might want to dig deep in the pockets for a Placido Polanco extension. But seriously he is on his way back to detroit. No word on how long he might be out for.
