Great interview with Orel Hershiser on today's Baseball Tonight podcast. Lots of talk about the Tigers and Cabrera. Already dropped my favorite line in the title: "Best team in the division is the Tigers, 2nd best is the Tigers not playing well" Didn't know he was from Southfield.

Interview with the author of a new Mark "The Bird" Fidrych biography.

Want to heckle the Yankees someplace outside their home stadium? You're going to have to deal with these guys.

Nice conversation between Buster Olney and Hunter on today's (4/11/13) baseball tonight podcast. Starts around the 20:10 mark. In it, Hunter talks about scouting the Tigers last year as a potential team to sign with if the Angels didn't work. He played against them in July and thought he'd be a good fit. Also, fellow Notre Dame haters hold your nose here, apparently the fact that his son committed there, 2 hours away, was an important factor in his decision to sign with Detroit.

I thought I'd share my pictures from the Tigers home opener last week.

Touching article about Alex Schezer's (Max's brother) passing last year.

Interesting article about advanced stats and how they're making their way into baseball broadcasts. Dan Dickerson quotation at the end.

In a very bizarre turn of events the tigers informed me I was traded to Baltimore and today told me that wasnt happening and I was realeased— Cale Iorg (@EuSouCI) March 29, 2013

I fun little article that should make all the Saber folks happy they aren't Phillies fans. My favorite part is this little gem from Ruben Amaro Jr., "I don't care about walks," Amaro said in January. "I care about production. To be frank with you, I've said this all along. All of the sabermatricians and all of the people who think they know exactly what makes a good club . . . to me, it's more about run production and being able to score runs and drive in runs."
