Well from what I hear Tigers may just go on a big spending spree if the right players want to play for the Tigers. Look for the Tigers to go hard after another SP such as AJ Burnett.

If the Tigers are big spenders and get the right players, the AL Central could be the toughest division next season. With a pitching rich White Sox team, a young and developing Indians team and the Twins remaining a thread... add the Tigers into the mix who are pretty close to contending as is, could be a fun year.

For everyone but Royals fans that is.

What we need the most is pitching. If we can get some quality experienced SP to balance out our rotation we'll be good to go. Our # 2 need is a closer. If Leyland and Dombrowski decide to go with a younger player like Fernando Rodney at closer it'll be a risk.

Our hitting is pretty much fine as long Pudge picks it up and Ordonez stays healthy. So some OF depth also may be needed. It'll be an interesting offseason.

Not when I hear talks of him retiring. Even if he doesn't retire who knows how healthy he'll stay.

Can't wait to start the offseason. Hopefully Dombrowski plays smart and goes after some pitching, and some OF.

First game today against the Cincy Reds.

Will be a nice morale booster to start this season off with a win.

Yah too bad FoxSports here sucks and won't cover it. They rather put on "How to play poker" Yah, trust me it's boring. I'll see the highlights later. Looks like it's pretty much a blowout.

You think that rotation they have this season is going to be a solid one at all?
