Re: Race for the Central (Tigers stuff)

IMO anything that happens after this is just a bonus... this team has exceeded anyones expectations.
I'll be ok with it even if they don't make the playoffs (slight chance)... hopefully this young squad will get the needed playoff exposure.
I think they're in the position to acquire the big lefthanded bat in the offseason... I don't know the extent that Illich will go in the FA market... but at minimum they could trade one of their starters (or Maroth)... we have two or three excellent arms in the minors.
This team needs a better fielder in right field than Mags... this guy scares me everytime the ball is hit that way... how many almost catches could someone with good speed/instincts could have caught?
Make Mags your DH with Young.
Will the Yanks just go out and buy our talent? I hate that the league still allows this to happen without a significant penalty... when are they going to adopt a real cap system?
The Tigers will have some of the most requested young talent... how cool is that?
The long drought is finally over.
