Detroit Tigers Tickets

2009 Detroit Tigers MLB Preview:
The plan for the 2009 Detroit Tigers is to climb out of the AL Central basement and return to their spot at the top of the division. For the 2009 Tigers to do that they will need to get solid pitching from the likes of Justin Verlander and timely hitting from players like Adam Everett, Carlos Guillen and Miguel Cabrera. If Detroit pulls off that combination then the fans in Motown will be cheering a potential pennant winning baseball club.
