Detroit TIgers

There are 30 teams in Major League Baseball.

Right now, 29 of them have won at least one of their first four games of the year.

Only one team has yet to crack the win column. That just happens to be the team many thought would be a lock to make this year’s playoffs and dominate and A.L. Central Division.

That team is the Detroit Tigers.

The Tigers currently stand at 0-4 on the season. Normally, that wouldn’t be an altogether terrible thing, but three of the four games came at the hands of the Royals. The other was to the White Sox. That makes them 0-4 not only overall, but also in their division.

That’s not good.

I understand it’s a long season and a lot of things can change for the better, but five of the team’s nine position playing starters have one hit so far. That list includes Gary Sheffield, Placido Polanco, Ivan Rodriguez, Jacques Jones and newly acquired Miguel Cabrera.

That’s just not gonna get it done.

This team needs to turn it around and turn it around fast.

Until they do, they’re going to continue getting heaps of Tough Love from us.
