Leelanau Sports Guy’s World

Saw a nice article on the Tigers offseason so far and projected spring lineup.

Off Season Report Card from DetroitTigers.com by Jason Beck.

My view: They still haven’t landed the big free agent and they might not. But they trying and without hurting the ballclub. Percival was a huge addition and even if he ends up being the only one the Tigers have improved. If Urbina can be happy in a setup roll and picking up the occasional save then the bullpen has dramatically improved. The starting pitching should continue to get better and the young arms all have another year of experience. A big addition to this club is a healthy Dmitri Young. If he can finally stay healthy he can provide a big bat in the middle of that lineup and provide some nice protection for Guillen and Pudge. Look for a .500 record from the Tigers next year and more likely on the plus side of that. If they can still add a superstar bat or starter the record can be even better.
