Underachieved? Have you been watching a Tiger's team from the moon?
The only underachievement is due to injuries to Magglio and Guillen.
Anonymous,
Tell me another team with a better combo of front end starter and big-time hitter than Verlander and Cabrera? The Tigers could have easily six All Stars. And there only a few games above .500?

Agree Pat, but Verlander and Cabrera are having really good seasons so they are not underachieving.
6 possible all-stars? I don't know. A reach.
Boesch is having a good comeback and Jackson is recovering from an expected letdown.
Rayburn and Inge, yes but within their capabilities considering Inge illness. Rayburn, trade now to get what you can.
