Tigers
This year the Detroit Tigers record was 88-74. They had an amazing year. They barely clinched the playoffs by beating the Chicago White Socks. They played the Oakland Athletics in the first round of the post season. Then they advanced to play the New York Yankees for the ALCS winners. They swept the Yankees and moved on to the World Series! They were playing the San Francisco Giants. The giants won the World Series two years ago. The Giants won the first two games, then won the next two in Detroit. They swept us just like we swept the Yankees. My personal opinion, is that the Tigers had too many days off. They had five days off leading in to the World Series, which is bad. Usually when a team gets a lot of days off going into the World Series, they lose. That's what happened to the Tigers. Even though we lost in the World Series, we had a great year and we actually went to the World Series! This off-season, there are rumors that Jim Leyland will retire. They also say that we are releasing Delmon Young and "Papa Grande" Jose Valverde. There are a lot of rumors saying we will pick up Josh Hamilton from the free agency. That will be huge for us. Imagine Cabrera, Fielder, and Hamilton. We'll see in the off-season. Go Tigers!
