Picimg_mlb_feb_28_b1e5
Now this is what you call a rough decision. The Detroit Tigers are currently in first place in the American League Central by three games over the Chicago White Sox. The ChiSox just added former NL Cy Young winner Jake Peavy and Alex Rios to their roster and seem poised to make a...

Picimg_mlb_mar_03_0768
As most of you know by now, whether or not Magglio Ordonez returns to the Tigers at an $18 million dollar salary next years depends on whether he reaches playing time incentives. If he starts 135 games or accumulates 540 at bats this year, then his contract option for 2010 automatically...

Remember when Magglio Ordonez’s vesting option was a controversial topic earlier in the season? Well, I think the Tigers are hoping you don’t because—barring an abrupt release—he’s going to reach the escalators in his contract that will put the team on the hook for $18 million...

Hey Come On, Magglio is Still Better than Rey

Picimg_mlb_feb_28_b1e5
Honestly is there anything more enjoyable than this whole Magglio Ordonez getting benched scenario. First off Ordonez has been absolute ****. He's hitting like a whimpy shortstop. The .273 average with a .347 OBP is catastrophic, but the .343 slugging percentage is hilariously...

This new lineup isn't a temporary thing

The last 2 games have featured Magglio Ordonez hitting 3rd and Miguel Cabrera hitting clean-up. That's going to last awhile, like into next season. I don't think lineups make a huge difference, but it never felt right having a hitter like Cabrera batting below the clean-up...
