    Tigers lost $20.4 Mil in 2014

    Kinsler and Cano are almost the same player since they both changed teams in 2014 The numbers are almost the same except Cano took 32 (20 were intentional)more walks than Kinsler. Ian Kinsler only had 1 intentional walk So basically you are paying Cano $8,000,000 a year more than KInsler for...

    Tigers lost $20.4 Mil in 2014

    Ball Park factors for 2011 thru 2014 Other than Petco Park and Yankee Stadium and a couple others - HR's are all over the place. You just have to give a player credit for hitting the ball out of the park. More credit (Jedd Gyorko) at Petco and less for a LH batter (Robinson Cano) in Yankee...

    Tiger catchers

    AA is one of the toughest players in the game. He takes more foul balls off of his face mast than I have ever seen by any catcher. He continues to call a solid game for the pitchers and is one of the guys in the line up that takes a lot of Walks. My personal opinion is there are bigger...

    Nathan still the closer?

    Its only the 2nd week of the season. Soria looks great this year. I was a little worried after he looked so bad last season. If Nathan bounces back, games will be over after the 7th inning.

    Troubling Signs Tigers Fleeced Yankees Again

    Hopefully Green can hold down the 4th starter position this year and move up to a #3 next year.

    Tigers lost $20.4 Mil in 2014

    I feel that the numbers you use are not telling the complete story of Infante and Kinsler. Your using a one size fits all comparison. The 2 play a completely different game than each other. Infante is more injury prone than Kinsler. Also Kinsler has a lot more power than Infante Total games...

    Nathan still the closer?

    The Soria/Nathan combo was great in Texas.

    Tigers lost $20.4 Mil in 2014

    Lombo was only one of the players in the trade. Krol is still around and how is Green(who Ray was traded for) looking these days for a fraction of the price of Fister.

    Big Mouth, No Brain Nathan is at it again

    http://espn.go.com/mlb/player/splits/_/id/4044/year/2014/joe-nathan Nathan's 2nd half stats were not that bad. Sure he had a terrible 1st half. I still think he has some fire left in his blowtorch

    Soria in the 8th Nathan in the 9th if Nathan can return to his 2013 form. Our bullpen will not be gassed once September 1st comes. We could also put away games by the 8th inning.

    Tigers lost $20.4 Mil in 2014

    Yes they did. Everyone goes on the DL in Texas it seems. It's to damn hot down there. Kinslers stats were not far off from Robinson Cano who makes 2 times the salary of Kinsler

    A lot of closers bounce back after an off season. A few that come to mind Fernando Rodney Kevin Gregg K -Rod Mark Melancon Jason Grilli

    Tigers lost $20.4 Mil in 2014

    That's why I posted I think I wasn't sure just knew money was coming off. I am glad the Rangers have Prince Fielder and not Detroit. Also the black hole at 2nd base prior to the Fielder trade has been filled with a gold glove caliber All Star type of 2nd baseman. While Detroit pays 6 million...

    Tigers lost $20.4 Mil in 2014

    The Fister trade is a wound that will never heal with some tigers fans. It was a bad trade always will be nothing will ever change that. It would be great if Green could put in a solid season this year. He is a LOW COST starter pitching in a launching pad in New York last year. My personal...

    Big Mouth, No Brain Nathan is at it again

    He may be a dickhead. But as I said before he might be able to bounce back this year. Give him enough rope to either hang himself or loosen the noose. I don't think cutting him loose on a caboose with a goose is not the right thing to do right now.

    Tigers lost $20.4 Mil in 2014

    For the record I think we ate a ton of money last year on the Fielder contract. I little bit of pain last year makes for a lot less pain in the years to come. The Kinsler/Fielder trade saved this team for the next 6 years. To get out of Fielder's contract was like pulling a rabbit out of a hat...

    Gotta give Nathan a chance. Maybe he can bounce back. He is a tool but might still be able to help the team.

    Detroit Tigers Complete Organizational Chart

    The Tigers have had a bad track record with #1 draft pick types. At least they hit on JV and got the most they could for maybin and miller. Turned the franchise around
