Luster I'd off the post season. Now that tigers are for shore not in it.
Tv ratings will be down. Esp if Cleveland gets in. Not really must watch tv for most of america like the tigers would be.

Cleveland's last three WS appearances completely blow Detroit's last three out of the water.

if he really wanted to help his team this year, he would have gotten the surgery. He was god awful.

The best thing that could happen to the Tigers, regarding Miggy Cabrera - if his back condition is serious, is something similar to what happened to Prince Fielder. Perhaps he will be declared medically ineligible and insurance will cover a majority of his salary (he is still owed $192mil). Having to pay a weak hitting DH (considering he can't do any better than his 2017 numbers) $30mil a year could damage the Detroit franchise for a long time.

No disrespect (I was rooting for Cleveland and I hate the Cubs), but the viewership was up because of the Chicago Cubs ... they are kind of a National Team ... people all over the country are Cubs fans.

So are the Cardinals, and Marlins vs Indians still beat Tigers vs Cardinals.

I had no idea that the Cards were national favorites like the Cubs. I'm not talking bad about any team, just the Cubs being in and winning the World Series last year was a big deal nationwide. Hence the inflated viewership.

They aren't quite like the Cubs, but I would still say they are a well-traveled, nationally rooted for team.

This could be the day! Phillies, Giants, and Tigers are all tied up with 62 wins each. With Anibal Sanchez on the mound for Detroit, I have crunched the numbers and declare that the smart money is on the Tigers taking the lead for the #1 draft pick.

A local Detroit sportswriter is going through Detroit Tiger media reports and sports coverage in an attempt to collect and list all the physical and mental problems that have been used to "explain" Miggy Cabrera's poor season. He hopes to have all the information gathered for publication by the end of the year.

Doug on behalf of everyone else here, you are hereby notified of a moratorium once the regular season concludes and until the end of the WS. Thank you for your contributions to the thread and some rather um, stupid predictions.

They are America's Team if/when the Yankees/Red Sox are not playing in the WS
