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

November 12 in Tigers and mlb history:

1920 - Owners unanimously elect Kenesaw Mountain Landis chairman for seven years. The owners' action comes in direct response to the Black Sox Scandal, which threatens the integrity of the game. Landis accepts, but only as sole Commissioner with final authority over the players and owners, while remaining a federal judge (with his $7,500 federal salary deducted from the baseball salary of $50,000).

Detroit Tigers also interested in free agent closer Brian Wilson.

from cbssports Jon Heyman Nov. 5;
16. RP Joe Nathan : He should turn his latest big season into a major pay day. The GM even envisions three years, and if he wants it, I could see it, too. Agent: 2 years, $22M. GM: 3 years, $35M. Me: 3 years, $36M.

22. RP Joaquin Benoit: Just because he can't get David Ortiz out doesn't mean he didn't have an exceptional regular season. Possible closer, but very high-end set-up man at the least. Agent: 2 years, $15M. GM: 3 years, $25M. Me: 3 years, $24M.

31. RP Brian Wilson: Wacky reliever was brilliant in limited, late-season duty for the Dodgers. Agent: 2 years, $12M. GM: 2 years, $16M. Me: 2 years, $16M.
