THE SATURDAY SURVEY.
Totally Tigers

The Saturday Survey offers the opportunity to weigh in on a relevant topic.
So here is a poll to gauge the pulse of our passionate readers.
Today, we center the discussion on the Tigers outfield.
As always, we welcome your comments, so please vote and then submit your reasons (4 sentences max!) for how you voted in the usual comment box. Don?t forget to come back later and view the results!

The Tigers are down to finalizing their roster and have a number of decisions to make in the outfield. Do they go with a 4-man or 5-man outfield?
Certain to make the roster are Robbie Grossman and Nomar Mazara. JaCoby Jones will almost certainly earn a spot, too.
Less certain are Rule 5 Draft sensation Akil Baddoo who has never played above A ball. Victor Reyes has done well with the Tigers but he still has an option left which may work against him. Eric Haase has had a good spring with the added benefit of being able to play both catcher and outfield positions.
Baddoo?s exceptional play has created a dilemma for the Tigers. Do they add an extra outfielder and as a result, take away some depth in another area? Or do they go with the standard 4-man outfield?

What should the Tigers do?

1. Return Baddoo/keep 4-man.

2. Keep Baddoo/send down Reyes.

3. Keep Baddoo/add 5th man.
