Todd SchultzI don't know why I post in this thread, as I don't have real strong feelings on the subject, but Dan, I don't think the '08 Tigers are even the best baseball team from Detroit in the past quarter century. I believe the '84 team would take them out in a seven game series nearly every time. Give me Lance Parrish, Trammell, Whitaker, HoJo, Darrell Evans, Kirk Gibson and Chet Lemon over today's group, and give me the '84 pitching staff, which had a better rotation--headed by Jack Morris--and a studly bullpen led by MVP Willie Hernandez. The more I think of it, the more I have trouble believing the '08 Tigers could even stretch that series to 7 games.
