So I got to go into the season with high hopes.
Yeah, I think so.
I think I have it in the other room.
There's a little bit of a taunt job.
I respect it.
All right, so number three, this is probably a team I have higher than others, but I think just based on, maybe I've been seduced by just people we've had on and just talking about them, whether it's Buster Olney or Sam Dykstra, but I got the Tigers in at three.
Their rotation is just crazy good.
Obviously, you got Scooble at the front.
They didn't trade him.
He made it through the offseason.
He's still there.
Fran Bervaldez at two.
Jack Flaherty, who's always shaky, but you've got him at three.
The return of Justin Verlander at four and Casey Mize at five.
I think if any of the bottom three outside of Scubo and Valdez can be anything like they've been in the past for even a little bit of the year, I think that's a huge boost.
Back into the bullpen, you've got Brandon Finnegan, who was obviously their closer last year.
Will Vest, who was solid for them, and then you got Kenley Jansen coming in, got some of that BIB blood in the bullpen.
And then, obviously, the lineup is always a little tricky, but just the insertion of...
Kevin McGonigal in that lineup is just going to be big time.
Obviously, he was raking in spring training.
