The Tigers are 4-4 as the second week of competitive baseball rolls on, and although none of the games thus far will count towards their 162 regular season total, its looking like the .500 mark is right about where they will end up.
USA Today suggested the same, when they projected the Tigers finishing 80-82 and in 4th place in the AL Central for this year. Many fans were outraged, sighting another big spending offseason to add to an already seasoned, yet accomplished roster that is desperate to win it all.
But after very limited Spring Training action, the Detroit Tigers are already digging deeper into their lineup than expected.
