Re: All Tigers Team

Thinking about it in the sober light of day, I'd have to say Heine Manush goes on the bench and Willie Horton comes off the team...

That and Bunning starts in place of Morris.

That team is pretty much solid.

Nicely done... personally I'm a big fan of Bill Freehan. He should get the nod over Pudge unless Pudge is still putting up MVP numbers in 2010. If Bill played today he'd be a consistent 25/90 guy. It's a bit cold to put a guy with one season over a dude who caught and put up better than average numbers for as long as Freehan did.

Also, Bobby Veach was a great contemporary of Cobb and Crawford. That outfield was maybe the best ever.

I kinda went with best players that played for Detroit, rather than Detroit's best players, if you understand what I mean.

That's why Goslin and Rodriguez are on there and Freehan and Horton aren't.

Just the direction that I took with it
