Rob Neyer: Magic number for Yankees, Tigers: 110
That said, what I didn’t discover until later is that the Tigers, who lost 106 games last season, were significantly worse than their terrible record. Given their runs scored (575) and allowed (864), we’d have expected the Tigers rack up 112 losses rather than 106. And if you’re trying to predict this year going off last year, you’ll do better if you consider the 2002 Tigers a 112-loss team. And is it really such a stretch to assume that a team with three Rule 5 pitchers and a starting rotation completely populated by question marks might lose eight more games than it did a year ago?
