This was a curiosity but it warrants some talk.  On August 7, 2006, the Tigers stood 40 games above .500 at 76-36.  Since that point in time, the Tigers have gone a combined 348-351 over the last four seasons and change.  They’ve had some moments (like a nice run in 2007 and the good first half in 2010) but they’ve basically been a .500 ball club for all but about 2/3 of a season since 2006.

Combine that with the money that’s been spent and it makes you wonder.
