Well, I guess there is no question who is the worst team in the game at this moment. The Tigers got swept by the Rays this afternoon 9-2. Lima was awful and neither Pearson or Miller were much better. The pitching made Tampa's lineup look like Murder's Row. In addition, the Detroit offense made Ryan Rupe look like a Cy Young contender. Rupe was very strong for all seven of his innings.
This is exactly the kind of start the Tigers were hoping wouldn't happen. Now, the Tribe comes calling and they've had the Tigers' number for years. If the Tigers don't win a game by the end of next week's series vs. Chicago, which would make them 0-9, I say fire Garner and give Felipe Alou a call.
