If you haven't realized it, the Tigers do not have an offense. They never have, they just feasted on the pathetic year of bullpen pitching, espeically in interleague last year. This team will not win 90 games and they will not be in the hunt come October. I really think Bondy will buckle under the pressure of his new contract and the only way this team would have a shot to get in the runing for the WS again is if they have the same success with their entire starting rotation.
What I am trying to say is they are going to do what the Chicago White Sox did last year, except they never won it all in the year prior.
Expect a dropoff and be careful when you lay chalk with this team.
Jones doesn't have it, Zamaya hasn't learned how to pitch yet....If Leyland was the mastermind everyone think he is, then why did LaRussa beat him?
