The Detroit Tigers have retired seven numbers in franchise history. That number is soon to be nine, as both Alan Trammell (3) and Jack Morris (47) will see their numbers emblazoned on the center field wall at Comerica Park this summer.
That leaves 91 other numbers, including 28 that have never been worn, for some yet unknown Tigers player to lay claim to as the greatest in Tigers history. Some numbers, even though they aren’t retired, will likely be pretty hard to top. Numbers 1, 24, 29 and 35 all seem pretty secure with their current leaders.
