The Edgar Defense
When the 2007 season came to a close the Tigers had a top priority on their to-do list and that was to get a shortstop. Carlos Guillen's knees and inconsistency making the routine play had dictated a move across the diamond to first base. So Dave Dombrowski moved swiftly to upgrade the infield [...]
Marcus Thames: HR Machine
If you haven't noticed by now, Tigers OFer Marcus Thames is on fire. His last 7 hits have all been homers and he's now up to 12 HRs in just 113 ABs. This follows an 18 HR performance in 269 ABs last year and 26 HRs in 348 ABs in 2006. That's a total of 56 HRs in 730 ABs the last 3 years, or a HR every 13 ABs and a 46 HR pace over 600 at-bats. With a chance for every day...
Game 71: Tigers at Giants
PREGAME: The Tigers will try to embark on a new winning streak with Kenny Rogers taking the mound. Rogers has only allowed 3 earned runs over his last 4 starts. He's still not striking many out, he only has 34 on the season, but he's cutting down on the walks which were [...]

2 Out of 3 Ain’t Bad, But it Should be Better
Yes, it's great that the Tigers won another series. Yes, I'm happy that they continue to play well in nearly all facets of the game. Yes, it's exciting to see them continue to climb up the standings. I just think they should have swept this series with the Giants. And I blame Jim Leyland for [...]
Stylewatch: Jersey's Not to Buy This Week 11/09/06
This week's jerseys to avoid are Gary Sheffield, Lynn Swann, and Tyler Brayton.
"Not only are Swann's Steelers 2-6, he also lost in his bid to become governor of Pennsylvania on Tuesday. Swann failed to lure independents over to his side and got just 40% of the vote. Perhaps we'll see him back on ABC Sports before too long after his politicla campaign fell short. Either...
American League Central Preview
1. Detroit Tigers
Offense: The Tigers enter 2008 competing with only the Yankees as the best lineup in baseball, and they are likely the favorites. Magglio Ordonez isn't going to hit .363 again, but Gary Sheffield should make more of an impact, and Carlos Guillen is one of the more underrated hitters...
Chicago at Detroit Preview- 1:05 PM ET
Detroit has not been looking like the AL Central favorite most prognosticators projected them as at this young point of the year. The Tigers are 0-3, and even worse, two superstars are not 100 percent healthy.Miguel Cabrera and Gary Sheffield each are banged up. Cabrera is dealing with a sore left qu...
Three Young Tigers for Sheffield
Gary Sheffield was not happy about being replaced in the lineup by Bobby Abreu, so maybe he'll be happier in Detroit. Currently sixth in RBIs and seventh in home runs among active major leaguers, Sheffield has probably earned the right to claim superiority. One the other hand, it took a few years (...
Early returns not great for Yankees
I praised Brian Cashman throughout the off-season for all the moves he made. I was, and still am, among those who liked the trades of Gary Sheffield, Randy Johnson and Jaret Wright -- each of which brought back young pitching talent.
I was even OK with the signing of Kei Igawa. Right now, however, things aren't working out quite the way Cashman had planned.
The Rough Patch for Scott Boras Continues
Alex Rodriguez, Kenny Rogers, and now, Gary Sheffield. Everyone hates Scott Boras, the cocky superagent who can trace all the enmity back to this article, likely one of the five best pieces in sports jouralism last year. We all know Sheff has a penchant for stirring the pot, but this quote about his ...
