Since the Detroit Tigers returned to baseball prominence around a decade ago, the team’s hallmark has been offense. From Magglio Ordonez to Curtis Granderson to Prince Fielder, some prolific sluggers have come and gone for the Tigers.
Detroit still has some pretty stellar hitters with Miguel Cabrera, J.D. Martinez, Justin Upton and Victor Martinez to name a few.
Upton’s addition in particular should return the Tigers to the front of the pack where baseball’s offenses are concerned. What’s more, healthy seasons from Cabrera and Martinez shouldn’t hurt either.
