Tigers full of 'what ifs' after Monday's win, uneven start to season

You don’t trust it. Not yet.

And why should you?

Not when one impressive win can turn into four dreary losses. As it happened last week, when the Tigers returned from a nine-game trip and scorched the Seattle Mariners for 19 runs, then lost their next four.

So, yeah, they looked good Monday night at Comerica Park in their series opener against the Indians. And, yeah, Daniel Norris, the Tigers’ starter, grinded through six innings, holding one of the American League’s best offenses to one run.

And, yeah, Tyler Collins kept hitting (Tyler Collins?). And Alex Avila kept hitting.
