The very popular Who’s Your Tiger campaign will be back for 2007. What started out as a way to introduce Detroit fans to the current roster in 2005 took on a life of its own last year.

My Tiger is Dave Dombrowski.
My wife’s is “PlaPo” (her term of endearment for Placido Polanco)
Mine’s gotta be Curtis Granderson as well, but JB is a close second.
Bonderman would be number 1. Granderson and Zumaya a close 2/3.
Iiiiiiinge!
Oh, no doubt about Inge
Inge then Guillen and Maroth, I can’t choose 1.
On a side note, a former player who stunk for us is rumored (take from it what you will) to be receiving offers from at least three MLB teams, one being us. The player, Juan Gonzalez. The only help he gave our team was a rival for higgi.

Zumaya is my Tiger, followed by Bonderman.
Justin Verlander. My dad and I saw his debut in Cleveland in ’05 and I saw him pitch in the WS in ’06. I just love to watch him.
Bonderman
Bondo no doubt.
Go Tigers!
Morosi says the Tigers have no interest in Juan Gone.

I think in the minor league system it would be a low-cost, low-risk move but I doubt he cares to go that way.
BONDERMAN!!!! Followed by a close second, Granderson
bonderman
Brandon Inge, but Nate Robertson is slowly moving up.
Any tiger not named Neifi.
Walt
Granderson is definitely my Tiger!
My wife’s Tiger/Mud Hen is Chris Shelton
Gotta stick with Inge. Second place to Maroth. I guess I’m a softie for the guys still around from the 119-loss season.
If for no other reason than he hasn’t been named yet, my Tiger is … … Carlos Guillen.
Inge for me,
Pugde for my nine year old.
My wife likes Maggs because he’s handsome (compared to me most men are)
Definitely, Carlos Guillen.
Top three for me, all of whom are separated by mere thousandths of a point, are: 1) Guillen; 2) Bonderman; and 3) Robertson.
I’m a big Craig Monroe fan…….and Carlos Guillen….and Zum Zum…….but gun to my head, pick one, I’d say Zumaya. Love watching that guy do his thing.
A year ago, I never thought I’d say this:
CRAIG MONROE!
The guy is clutch, goes hard every play, and knows who he is….and picking a pitcher from our stable is like choosing between War Admirla, Secretariat, Seabiscuit, Seattle Slew, Barbaro, etc. — you get my point.
C’ MO’.

Polanco, Maroth, and Jones
Placido Polanco. I love a gamer.
Gotta go with Polanco followed by C’Mo.
Joey C,,,, Well you are alive. Dan called looking for you. jk. Glad to see your still around.

The Gambler. His performance, which I was very lucky to see live, against the Yankees and Randy Johnson in Game #3 was the best performance I have seen by a Tiger since Trammell in ’84. Rogers followed up that performance with an additional 15+ (!) innings of shutout playoff and World Series pitching. Not to mention his tutoring of our young arms, his celebrating with the fans, and Opening the year with a GEM against KC. KR, you set this city on fire! Thanks for ’06. Tiger number 2, how has he not been mentioned yet, Jim Leyland!
A tie between Vance Wilson and Joel Zumaya.
‘Nother vote for the man with a flashy glove and a cannon arm. Everyone’s favorite 3B, Brandon Inge….sans beard-like thingy.
No one likes Pudge anymore, eh?
I’m a Granderson man myself.
1) Bondo — 18-20 wins, 200+ IPs, 200+ Ks
2) Shef — 30+ hr, 120+ RBI’s
3) Zoom — Just plain Nasty
Kenny Rogers/Mike Maroth
Carlos Guillen. I got a thing for short-stops.
Craig Monroe. I’ve had to defend this guy for at least two years now to Tiger fans. When are they gonna be convinced?
My Tiger is Wilfredo Ledezma.
My positional Tiger is Curtis Granderson. As his season goes, so goes the team. Granderson, you best be ready to hit this year.
Craig “see the ball go” Monroe. I just made that up, but I kind of like it. I have this gut feeling it won’t catch on.
Carlos Guillen
#15 Brandon Inge
Granderson as well! I’m sponsoring his baseball reference page this year, too!!!
Where’s the love for Magglio Ordonez. After everything we have to thank him for last season and one person likes him because he is handsome?!? Magglio Ordonez is most definitely my future husband, he just doesn’t know it yet. He will, however, find out Monday April 2nd. I love him.. I need for everyone to know
Jim Leyland….at the 2006 Tiger fest when asked about the previous Tiger teams and their inability to take walks and move runners over he said, “that’s horsesh*t baseball, and IT WILL NOT be tolerated” then, when he was asked if players can’t or won’t bunt he simply said, “If I say bunt, they’ll bunt…next question.”
I’ll never forget that, and the fact that my favorite Tiger player changed every week.
my 13yr old said pudge and my 5yr old said Guillen (because he wore #9 in tee ball and Pudge (because he wants to be a catcher)
My positional tiger is Pudge. I still say if it weren’t for him comin over and then workin with these young pitchers, we wouldn’t be where are.
He’s startin to hit like Ausmus, but that’s my Tig!
Late to the party, but…
Granderson
Inge
Zumaya
Bondo
Carlos
“No one likes Pudge any more?”
I do! He’s my Tiger and until my six month old son turns “of age” (whenever he learns to speak and can annunicate another choice), I declare him to be his Tiger as well.
who’s my tiger? i’ll stick with the battery…
pitcher: zumaya. there’s something that’s so primal about throwing 100+ mph gas. i love how leyland (sort of) uses him according to the bill james “relief ace” role.
position player: rodriguez. he’s like shaq in the sense that every team he goes to gets better–and that’s especially remarkable in baseball! should be an easy first-ballot hall of famer.
Emily, I’m with you…
Maggs is the man!!!
