CATCHER: IVAN RODRIGUEZ
The Official Site of The Detroit Tigers: Team: Player Information
He's a hall of famer...nuff said. And on this team, he can be the LEADER that this team needs, because his offense will be secondary for the first time since he got here. All we need is his gold glove defense and ability to tame the pitching staff. He will bat 8th and against lefties , he will bat 1st. Count on it. The next two years will be Pudge's last ride as a starter and I believe he will go out with a bang.
PREDICTION: .281 AVG 16 HR 65 RBI
LEFT FIELD: JACQUE JONES

OF all the Tigers who will have good years, Jones' good year will be the most shocking. He will be most effective on defense, but very prodective on offense. Probably the best 9th place hitter ever. His left handed bat will be used in the 5 hole more than you think as well.
Very good pickup....very good
