Seems time for a new thread. Let's hope 2016 is a lot more pleasant than 2015.

Ausmus returning doesn't instill confidence, but I like the team make up better

I think they have a shot at finishing second in the division. Hopefully they can get a wildcard spot.

I think they have a shot at finishing second in the division. Hopefully they can get a wildcard spot. Sounds reasonable to me. It's funny to look at the projections and publication predictions: PECOTA has the Indians winning 92, the White Sox at 82, the Twins at 79, the Tigers at 78, and the Royals at 76. Fangraphs has Cleveland at 85, the Tigers and White Sox at 81, the Royals at 79, and the Twins at 78. VegasInsider has the Royals at 87, the Tigers at 85, the Tribe at 84, the white Sox at 80.5, and the Twins at 77.5. Meanwhile USA Today went bonkers and had the ChiSox with 90 wins, the Royals at 84, Indians at 83, Tigers 82, and Twins 80. Should be a very competitive division this year.

Put me down as caustically optimistic. If everybody is healthy and can perform up to their capabilities, then they can make the playoffs. Not sure they can win the division or how far they will go in the playoffs, but I am just going to enjoy this season. No matter what.

If they are headed to an 80-82 record, then they better be sellers at the trading deadline & trade everyone with a pulse. Or at least get rid of some big contracts and start over. If they can.

Caught part of the split squad game against the Yanks. Went up 7-0 & lost 10-9, the back-ups were hitting the ball pretty good. Kinsler & JD looked solid already, Mike Pelfrey pitched 3 very good innings. Relief pitching wasn't good at all. I know it was just spring ball, but I enjoyed the game after that snow storm we had last night.

So now there is a concern about Maybin's wrist?

I doubt they will give up if they around .500 at the deadline. You are probably correct. If I see a 500 club at the deadline, in my opinion they should sell. But the Tigers brass probably feels differently.

Lance Parrish is my favorite Tigers player ever. Working on an 84 throwback jersey with his name/number.
Love the Big Wheel.

Watching the Tigers play the Rays on FSD. Dan Dickerson and Gibby are doing the game. Love hearing DD's voice on the tv. They should do a simulcast for tv and radio.

They're saying hamstring now. Any leg injury = no power.
