How many stars does it take to build a playoff team?

Let’s examine two seemingly contrasting truths: The Detroit Tigers are having an excellent year. One of the best in the majors. The Detroit Tigers are having a terrible year. One of the worst in the majors. Can those ideas really be true at the same time? How? You’ve likely heard that Dillon Dingler and Kevin […]

At the same […]
