Rebuilding: What big name Detroit Tiger will soon be gone?
Detroit I-Sportsweb

Many Tigers fans may worry about losing core players Justin Verlander and Miguel Cabrera. However, this cannot be a complete fire-sale for the Tigers.
The Tigers? TV contract is set to expire soon, and the last thing the Tigers need is to lose more followers; without followers, the TV contract won?t be renewed which would be detrimental to income for the organization.
Plus, with the contracts that the JV and Miggy currently carry, they can be expected to be seen in Tigers? uniforms for the foreseeable future.

June 29 in Tigers and mlb history:

1907: At Bennett Park Ty Cobb steals home for the first time in his career, victimizing the Cleveland battery of pitcher Heinie Berger and catcher Howard Wakefield.

1931: The Detroit Tigers released Wally Schang.

1967: The Houston Astros traded Jim Landis to the Detroit Tigers for Larry Sherry.

1968: Jim Northrup's third grand slam ties the major-league record for slams in a month (Rudy York, May 1938), and sets a major-league record for slams in a week. The Tigers win 5 - 2 over Chicago, as Denny McLain tallies his 14th victory.

1972: In a swap of former MVPs, the Braves send 1B Orlando Cepeda to the A's for P Denny McLain.

1983: Mark Fidrych, in the second year of an extended comeback attempt with the Pawtucket Red Sox (International League) retires. The 1976 American League Rookie of the Year was 2-5 with a 9.68 ERA.

1984: Twins rookie Andre David hits a 2-run home run off Jack Morris in his first major league at bat to spark Minnesota to a 5 - 3 win over Detroit before 44,619. It is the only home run David will hit in the big leagues and it stops Morris's 11-game win streak over the Twins.
Detroit wins the nitecap 7 - 5 as Kirk Gibson starts the scoring with a two-run homer in the 1st and ends it with a two-run homer in the 9th. The Tigers also score in the 2nd on back-to-back homers by Chet Lemon and Ruppert Jones.

1986: Detroit beats Milwaukee, 9 - 5, in the first game of a doubleheader split, making Tigers manager Sparky Anderson the first manager ever to win 600 games in each league.
