Are the Detroit Tigers the most frustrating team to watch in baseball? Last week after being swept away by the Kansas City Royals, Detroit would go on to sweep the AL Central leading Chicago White Sox only to lose two of three to the Cleveland Indians. Now the polarization of the Tigers isn’t something that started this past week, it’s something that the Tigers and their fans have really been dealing with all season. This comes after spending a ton of money in the offseason to acquire slugger Prince Fielder to add to a lineup that already featured AL Cy Young award winner and AL MVP Justin Verlander and perhaps the best hitter in all of baseball Miguel Cabrera. In this past weeks episode, Tony and Adam discuss the polarizing Tigers and whether or not they can pull off a second straight AL Central title.
In addition to that the Around the Diamond crew also discusses:
- Oakland and Baltimore’s amazing run, and who could crack first.
- Division race outlook.
- The Reds’ quiet success
