As bad as the Tigers have started off, SI still has them ranked 26 out of 30 in their power rankings as of 4/11 when they were still 1-8. ESPN had them ranked 18th and Fox Sports has them 13th as of 4/14. So there is still some who think they are decent despite others mouthing that they are the worst team in baseball.

Tigers have won 3 of their last 5 and are only 4.5 games behind the leader of what could be the toughest division in baseball. Also they are only 1 game behind the Indians the other team they were suppose to battle with this summer. A victory over the Indians tonight and the two teams are tied for last

Consider this : The Washington Nationals who share the same 4-10 record with the Tigers, won their first 3 games out of the gate and then lost nine in a row. Of course neither their expectations, nor their payroll was as high as the Tigers.
