Well that's it; the Tigers can just hang it up, the Tribe are going to win the AL Central. It says so right here.

Yeah last year USA Today said the Atlanta Falcons would finish worse than the Lions and guess what, they made the playoffs! I think everyone knows how the Lions finished!

Having scored 82 runs in the last 11 games, the Angels are just a wishing that Opening day was this Monday not next!!!! They are ready!!!! :up:up:up
No. Oakland has improved and they are starting out hurt as are the Angels. When everyone is healthy (hopefully) come May things will start to fall into place. (I've been watching the Rangers lately and they have quite a bit of "pop" also. Their pitching will dictate their season for them.)

Tigers in a rain delay 
Why is baseball the only sport with rain delays? Be a man and play, you're not going to melt!

Since you cross-posted this, so will I!
You want a bunch of pulled groins, torn ligaments, broken ankles and the like in a senseless spring Training game a week out from Opening Day??????
Gee, maybe Jim Leyland should know about this, that seems to take the drama out of the Tiger's starting rotation.
This makes life much too easy.

Check out last year's Opening Day roster and see where Big John was....wanna guess?

Very true. In the meantime, those Halo bats should be able to carry the load. :up
BTW, Westbrook is already pitching off the rubber from 60'. According to the Tribe beat reporter, he's throwing 88mph fastballs already. I know it's still VERY early, but Westy is shooting for a June 12th return (his 1 year Tommy John surgery anniversary).
If Westy can come back then and the Tribe's flame throwers can tread water in the meantime, this pitching staff will suddenly look a lot more deep.
Very true. I am thrilled to see the power coming from "unknowns" like Aybar, Sean Rodriguez (who will probably start off in AAA), and Brandon Wood. Plus we have yet to see how Abreu will fit in on the team since he's been away @ the WBC for so long. But he has been hitting nicely so far.
Gary Matthews, Jr. is bitching about reagular playing time, so when he gets in the game, hopefully his anger will translate into hits, too.
Which reminds me, the other day when the Halos were playing the Tribe in a spring training contest, the Angels had back-to-back-to-back homers. This was my very own personal taste of how powerful this lineup actually is!
I tell you one thing. That 3 man combo of Bobby Abreu, Vladimir Guerrero and Torii Hunter makes for one scary heart of a batting order!
I was gonna give you a hard time about that game but it was such a crazy, windy game that it didn't really warrant it. BTW, that was the 1st time the Angels ever went B-to-B-to-B in Spring Training history.
When do the Halos and Tribe first play?
Your friendly banter makes me long for the start of the season.

Believe it or not, the first Tribe/Halo series (in Anaheim) isn't until July 27th thru 29th.
The second time the teams face each other is in Cleveland on August 18th thru 20th.
Unfortunately, not till mid-season which is wierd. The Tribe usually comes out here for some late Spring warmth each season; but this year we trade visits within weeks of each other in July and August.
One good thing is that that Red Sox and Angels are through with each other early this season. You'll have to deal with Bill and me early on this year!

The Sox and Halos meet two weekends hence in Anaheim (Easter weekend).
I'm looking forward to the Friday night late game. There's nothing like staying up late on a weekend night....watching the Red Sox play on the West Coast!!!
