The Tigers are better than the Cardinals. I don’t think this even requires that much debate. The Tigers won 12 more games than the Cardinals. That in itself is impressive, but they did it in a division with 2 other 90 game winners while the Cardinals 83 was enough to lead the NL Central. In [...]

Roster Issues I’ve said pretty much all I have to say about the Carlos Pena release in that I don’t like how the roster sets up.
