Man did we rob Washington in that Fister deal. Too bad we turned Ray for Shane Greene though.

I'm hoping the Tigers will be competitive in 2020. I also hope that the Tigers top 3 in the rotation come from this group of pitchers

Perez
Manning
Faedo
Burrows
Mize

We're competitive in 2018, only 4 back. Keep the faith, Tom ;-)

Quite ironic really.

Ray seems like he's a tale of two seasons. Every other year dude is a beast. Not so much this year so far.

 

[Mitchrapp]

He's also in the NL.

While it may be one of the better stats, if Verlander is 44th and 0-33 are #1s, it is a very flawed stat. He has been a top 10 starting pitcher during that time.

Pitchers can't be compared between leagues where one has a DH.
