Bless You Boys Tigers blog Podcast 28: Prince Fielder and Nattering Nabobs of Negativity. about 1 hour.

Topics discussed:
Prince Fielder? For real?
Was Tigers owner Mike Ilitch the driving force behind this signing?
Is this contract all due to Victor Martinez tearing his ACL?
Have the Tigers become prohibitive favorites in the AL Central?
It's World Series or bust for Ilitch.

Jim Leyland has to bat Miguel Cabrera 3rd and Fielder 4th, right?
Where does Cabrera best fit in the field, if at all?
If Cabrera moves to 3rd base, what happens to Brandon Inge and Don Kelly?
A year from now, the Tigers will have Cabrera, Martinez and Fielder on the roster. Who plays where? Could we see a trade?

If not Cabrera, who will be the DH?
You may not want to, but there are some parallels to 2008.
The Cecil Fielder factor.
Can the Tigers afford 3 players making $20 million plus a season?

Is Yoenis Cespedes still an option?

Yahoo! had EASILY beaten out ESPN for reformatting and becoming the absolute worst in that regard, over seven years earlier. But of course ESPN, not to be outdone, finally managed to catch up to messageboard/forum cruddyness last summer, and as we all know, is why we are posting here on the Proboards instead of on ESPN. The only thing that I really miss is that there is no interaction or worthwhile and unbiased input from the"good" fans of division rival teams or MLB in general....sigh.
