No. 7 Detroit Tigers

Standings: 4-2 (2nd in AL Central)

Outlook:The start to the Tigers season has been cut short with two of their games against the White Sox being postponed. The Tigers split the two games that were played then took three of four games against the Red Sox. The Tigers received two good outings from Justin Verlander who starts the season with a 1.35 ERA and 14 strikeouts. Detroit has been able to survive a dreadful start from Miguel Cabrera who hit .095 his first six games. The Tigers take on the Twins at home then go on the road for a series with the Indians. (Getty)
