Wdell somehow we are in first place at the break, but don't get too comfortable. The second half promises to be a roller coaster ride. Biggest concerns has to bde Inge, Rayburn, and Maggs. Inge is my Tiger, but he is not living up to his potential. Not sure why Leyland is sticking with Rayburn so long. And they are stuck with Maggs $10 million contract. But there are lots of bright spots - so no need to panic. Once Rick Knapp was fired many folks were screaming for the release of McClendon. But we do have four of the American League's top ten hitters on our team, with Avilla not far behind. What a joy Avilla has been! Then there is the pitching - there is enough there for a separate blog. You can never be too rich in pitching. Did the Cincinattie Reds really start Dontrelle Willis yesterday?
What changes will Dombrowski make before the trading deadline to make the playoffs and try to save his job and Leyland's. Stay tuned for a fun ride.

Today's Free Press has an article about how the Tigers have been "an unmitigated disaster" in the second half every year under Leyland since 2006.
