Detroit Tigers Team Notes

Doug Fister, Tigers. When you hear people talking about teams not wanting to face the Tigers in the first round of the playoffs because you don't wanna see Justin Verlander twice in a short series, do not forget the Tigers now have a very formidable No. 2. Fister was brilliant again Sunday in a 2-1 Tigers win over the Twins, allowing just three hits in seven shutout innings. Since coming over in a trade from the Mariners in July, Fister is 5-1 with a 2.28 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 41 strikeouts in 51 1/3 innings. Meanwhile, the Tigers now have a better record than the Rangers and are five games behind the Yankees for the top seed in the AL.

THE TIGERS: NOT A ONE-SHOT DEAL
Predicting the future in baseball is dangerous, but the Tigers are in position to remain quite competitive for the next several years.

The trade for Doug Fister, who is 5-1 with a 2.28 ERA in eight starts for Detroit, was arguably the best deadline move of 2011, setting up the Tigers both for the rest of this season and beyond.

With Fister, the Tigers now have four right-handed starting pitchers who are all under 30 and under long-term control: Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer will be with the team at least three more seasons, Fister and Rick Porcello at least four more.

The Tigers also have a number of prospects who could compete for the fifth spot next season, including righty Jacob Turner, the team

Porcello settles down after rough beginning, Ryan Raburn goes 4-for-5 with home run as Tigers run winning streak to 10 games.
from Mlive

The Tigers have won 20 of their past 24 games and now lead the White Sox and the Indians by 11 games in the American League Central Division.
It was the 10th consecutive victory for the Tigers, and all of those wins have come against division opponents. The 10-game winning streak is the longest for the Tigers since 1968, when they won 11 in a row in September. A few weeks later, they won the World Series.
