I love the Tigers

I am so happy about the trade that the Tigers pulled off this week. We get two All-stars for minor league prospects (and yes Maybin and Miller are still minor league prospects). Miguel Cabrera is one of the best hitters in baseball and well on his way to a hall of fame career and he's only 25 years old. Dontrelle Willis is an all-star pitcher. I can't wait for the season to start.

Little Caesars hiring Dave Dombrowski was the smartest move they've ever made. Let's not forget that he is a WMU graduate! The Tigers lineup is now the best in baseball. I did a statistical check on the lineup. Baseball dorks, like myself, will understand it.
