The Detroit Tigers need new television announcers. We’ve known this ever since Anthony Fenech of the Detroit Free Press reported that longtime announcers Rod Allen and Mario Impemba would not return to Fox Sports Detroit broadcasts in 2019.
Normally, we would wait a little while before trying to find successors for Allen and Impemba. Fox Sports Detroit has not yet officially announced that the two will not be back next season, and it’s very hard to speculate on which announcers would be available.
But since everyone is talking about this — and I mean everyone, from the Free Press to the Detroit News to MLive — we figured it was time to join the fray.
