Season Opener
The Detroit Tigers start their season today against the Toronto Bluejays at 1:15 p.m. It will be a tough game for the Tigers. The Jays starting pitcher is Roy Halladay(22-7 with a 3.25 era). If the Tigers can hit well against Halladay they will probably win the game. The Tigers MUST not start the season slow. They have to win quickly. The past 2 seasons they started 0-11 and 0-9. If they start off slow like the last 2 years they will be done by mid-June. They haven't had a winning season in over a decade. New Tiger Jason Johnson will get the start. Here is the rest of the Projected Tigers lineup:
1. Alex Sanchez, CF
2. Fernando Vina, 2B
3. Ivan Rodriguez, C
4. Dmitri Young, DH
5. Rondell White, LF
6. Carlos Pena, 1B
7. Carlos Guillen, SS
8. Bobby Higginson, RF
9. Eric Munson, 3B
--------------------------
The Tigers almost have to do better than they did last year. They almost set the record for losses in a season. They picked up some very good free agents in the offseason. They signed Fernando Vina, Rondell White, Al Levine, Jason J, Ugueth Urbina, and of course Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez. They also traded for shortstop Carlos G. I don't think they will contend for the playoffs but I think they will be vastly improved and win about 60-75 games. They are about one or two years away from competing for a playoff spot. This season should be much more bearable to watch. They hopefully won't get blown out as much as last year. I'm excited about the season and I can't wait to see how good or bad the Tigers will really be.
