Agree, Chisox favored to win Central with trade acquisitions and were playing well before that. Tigers have too many holes to go on a sustained 0.600 win stretch, especially with schedule. Only chance probably to win Wild Card, only 1 out behind Oakland, LAA, although LAA has now improved also with trades. Hope is that our recent trade will work out well also, but let's not hold our collective breaths. (I'm not too smart but with a $132M payroll, one would think that DD has to have one eye on rebuilding with young players - and getting rid of Turner is confusing)
