Stick a Fork in Them

The Tigers are in a most disappointing season.  Millions paid to bring high quality players to a team that performed well over the last two seasons.  Granted, those two might have been aberrations.  But the off-season signings were to make this team a power.  Only Miguel Cabrera seems to be living up to his pay grade.

The pitching has also been much of the problem, in part due to Dontrel Willis's inability to throw the ball over the plate (his motion is being reworked in Lakeland).  Injuries, age, fatigue.  And pitching is the major part of what the Tigers gave up off season--good, young pitchers.  Granted most were untested, but those who threw well in the "bigs".  And some young positions players were also dealt with disappointing performances by their replacements. 

All that said, we are going to a Tigers' game tomorrow and will have a great time.  We still love to see major league baseball.  GO TIGERS.
