Detroit Tigers Team Notes

November 15 in Tigers and mlb history :

1945 - The rules are revised for election of modern players to the Hall of Fame. A runoff election is formulated as a way to qualify more players for selection, but it fails to meet its objective as no one reaches the 75 percent requirement in the runoff.

2005: After months of deadlock, leaders of Major League Baseball and the players union reach an agreement to clean up a performance-enhancing drug scandal that has tarnished the nation's pastime and left lawmakers worried about young athletes imitating the wrong role models. It will require baseball players to submit to several drug tests each year, during and between seasons, and will impose lengthy suspensions for steroid and amphetamine use. Repeat offenders can be banned for life. The agreement, which must be ratified by both the players and baseball owners, is similar to a proposal offered earlier this year by commissioner Bud Selig.

Tigers say they won't trade from big-league core, or very top prospects (Turner, Castellanos etc.)

Turn to MLBNetwork at 2pm ET to find out the winner of the 2011 American League Cy Young Award (or should I say if Verlander is the unanimous winner).
They might have JV on tv or in a phone interview.
