Detroit – Almost everyone says it, in some form, every year. Sometimes they mean it. Usually they’re delusional.
You know how it goes. Anything can happen! Why not us? We like our squad, we got a chance!
Generally, you don’t. The Tigers lost 114 games last season and dropped 98 each of the previous two seasons. None of that was a surprise, as they’re deep into a massive rebuild. And nothing much will change the franchise’s forward-looking plan during the pandemic-truncated season that opens July 24.
