As we enter mid-May, the Detroit Tigers have put together a pretty good start cobbled together out of a lot of castaway pieces. It’s been a turbulent beginning and they aren’t scaring anyone yet, but they’ve won more than their share of close games and played a pretty gritty and fun style of ball. Of late, the offense has really come on strong, but we’ll need a good deal more evidence that things have consistently turned for the better on that front.
So a lot of questions around the club are variations of, how are they doing this, and can it continue?
