No it doesn't ... It's kinda really nothing. If you are so smart, why do you have $115 dollars left in your Bookie account?
Because I bet a ton of money on the Tigers to beat the Rays last week... and it didn't pan out so well. That wasn't very smart at all.

Looks like a winning lineup to me.
I'm curious to see Moya get some extended playing time in the last few weeks. Collins and Moya should play in as many games as possible to see if they can hold down LF next year... I think between the two of them it would at least be league average... save the money for starting pitching.

I don't see any way Gose, Collins and Moya are all on the roster next year. Seems like an overload of lefties in the OF.

But I agree on them getting a lot of time. Clocks ticking on Moya imo. 7 years a Pro is long enough to wait.

I don't see Collins as a starter, but wouldn't object to him being the 4th outfielder.

I agree. They have to have a right handed bat somewhere... Really wouldn't surprise me if Rajai Davis is brought back on a 1 yr deal... But I would also be ok with them going out and getting a proven leader in the clubhouse like a Victorino for a bench role. I would be really suprised if Moya isn't on the roster next year... another year in AAA isn't going to do much for him... I would say the only way he isn't at least a bench player next year is if they trade him... but Avila was heavily involved in finding and signing Moya... so he may consider him his guy.

If Moya were to be the 4th guy next year, (or the starting Leftfielder )bringing back Rajai would make a lot of sense. They'd need another guy that is capable of manning center.

(I'd be surprised if he's in Toledo more than I would if he's the starting Leftfielder.)

Tigers could easily have Collins start in AAA and call him up if needed for depth. The Tigers have Wynton Bernard (he bats righty) that is also close to being MLB and could end up getting a roster spot out of spring training. He is like a younger version of R. Davis.

Rajai Davis should not be on this team next year. He's a terrible outfielder he throws like a woman any won't hit above 230 next year. He can run but he's getting up there.

I think Gose will be out there next year because of his age and he plays a good centerfield. Not sure if he has hit his ceiling as a hitter but a little more consistency then this year and he will be ok.

You guys watch the first game while my Chiefs are playing and I'll watch the second game when your lions are playing.

I love Gose.

Remember hoping for .260 out of Him this year and its what he's given. Needs to polish his baserunning, a lot. But in his first year as a starter and keadoff hitter he's done very well, to me.

I just think we have to roster another guy capable of playing center. Davis isn't the defensive guy Gose is, but he's okay.

Moya showed one thing everyone keeps forgetting about him today... He has a cannon for an arm. He is much better defensively than Collins. As long as he can hold his own at the plate... he should easily win the LF position next year. The Tigers are better served finding a low cost vet that can play all three outfield positions and is right handed to come off the bench.

Lonnie Chisenhall seems to have found his niche on D.

That's two excellent grabs this weekend. (I missed the one he lost in the sun.)

Austin Jackson? Lol

I'd like that four man outfield, but Id imagine he'll get paid decent to start for someone in center.
