10. DETROIT TIGERS
The Detroit Tigers are at 12-10 and in 2nd place, three games off the pace in the American League Central Division. The Tigers are 9th in baseball with a +13 run differential, and have won three games in a row heading into Saturday action.
Miguel Cabrera has begun to heat up, which is going to make a tough lineup even more difficult for opposition pitchers to navigate. DH Victor Martinez, 2nd baseman Ian Kinsler, 3rd baseman Nick Castellanos, right fielder J.D. Martinez, and surprising catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia are already off hot.
Jordan Zimmermann has been their best starting pitcher by far, and setup man Justin Wilson has been lights out. If the Tigers are going to climb in the rankings and the standings, they are going to need more from starters Justin Verlander and Anibal Sanchez, closer Francisco Rodriguez, and outfielder Justin Upton.
