Season Previews: Detroit Tigers


Now that the season is under way, it's time for one of our favorite things in all the world: Season Previews. Two years ago, they began as a serious analysis and ended up as half-assed haiku. We're just gonna go with what we know. Kicking off our preview of the American League Central, here we go: the Detroit Tigers.

Disappointing year
In '08, despite beefing
Up their roster. Oops.

Magglio has the
Most magnificent hair in
The big leagues, such bounce!

Gary Sheffield is
Still playing - Play on, playa.
Rogers retired (?)

Jim Leyland smokes a
Lot. Probably should quit soon.
Emphysema sucks.

Miguel Cabrera
And Polanco are pretty
Bad-ass. For Tigers.

Line-up not scary
Like last year. Maybe rename
Team Detroit Kittens?

Sidebar: I wrote this prior to Sheffield being released. Guess they realized he's old.

Aside from that ridiculous picture of Maggs' hair blowing in the breeze, that was a great haiku Marea. And yes, Jim Leyland should quit smoking. But I think if he did, his head might explode and his players' lives would be in grave danger.
