I'm kind of disappointed by your ALCS appearance prediction. I had much, much higher hopes for this season then that.
The projected rotation worries me quite a bit. We have 3 starters that we don't know what we are going to get from them at all... Pitching overall could be a huge problem area.
LOL, Wow is the Tigers line-up potent. COuld be one of the highest scoring groups ever.
