Detroit Tigers Team Notes Over 3 Million Views!!! Thankyou!

November 10 in Tigers and mlb history:

1888 - In Detroit, MI, a club is organized to compete in the International Association next season to take the place of the disbanded Detroit Wolverines, fifth-place finishers this past season in the National League. The Wolverines sell off their stars, including Big Sam Thompson going to the Philadelphia Quakers, and the so-called "Big Four" Dan Brouthers and Hardy Richardson to the Boston Beaneaters and Jack Rowe and Deacon White to the Pittsburgh Alleghenys.

1948 - In a move that will give them a pitching ace for the next decade, the Chicago White Sox acquire young lefthander Billy Pierce from the Detroit Tigers for All-Star catcher Aaron Robinson. The Tigers even sweeten the deal with $10,000. Pierce will win 186 games for the White Sox over the next 13 years. Robinson will last fewer than three seasons in Detroit.

Bless You Boys Tigers Blog Podcast 92: Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

Topics:
Meet Brad Ausmus, managerial flavor of the month!
It's far, far to early to make any kind of judgment, good, bad or indifferent, about the hiring if Ausmus.
Gene Lamont and Jeff Jones return. Tom Brookens won't.
Goodbye Lloyd McClendon.
Just because there's rumors the Tigers will trade Max Scherzer doesn't mean it's likely to happen. It's improbable, at best,
Is there a payroll crunch?
This is Omar Infante's one shot at a huge contract.
The few Tigers free agency rumors involve closers, the first of which was about Grant Balfour. Expect the Tigers to be linked to any and every closer on the market.
Awards season is here and we don't give a damn.
The SB Nation MLB Awards were determined by nerds. Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos Cabrera.
 
November 11 in Tigers and mlb history:

1886 - The Executive Council of the Brotherhood of Professional Base Ball Players, formed the previous year, meets and chooses officers. Monte Ward is re-elected president, Dan Brouthers vice president, and Tim Keefe secretary-treasurer.

1889 - The Joint Rules Committee of the National League and the American Association makes only minor changes in the playing rules, the most important of which is to allow two substitutes per team, up from one last season.

1891 - The National League meets and dismisses the charges of collusion and game throwing against the eastern clubs brought by the Chicago Colts, thereby formally giving the Boston Beaneaters the pennant. The league also plans its strategy for conquering the American Association by consolidating the four strongest Association clubs into a 12-team league for next year.
