Greatest Tigers of All-Time

Will Justin Verlander Be A Hall of Famer?

Earlier in the week I updated what had become an annual blog entry for me around the greatness of Miguel Cabrera, who is undoubtedly already a Hall of Fame lock.  It got me thinking around looking in to Justin Verlander’s career and if there is potential to be elected to the Hall of Fame one…

The Greatest Detroit Tiger By Position: Center Field

As we continue on exploring the greatest Tigers by position of all-time, we move on to what I am guessing is a slam dunk before any research is done.  Before getting to the list however, looking back I’ve covered the all-time best Tigers catcher, first baseman, second baseman, third baseman, shortstop, and left fielder.  You…

The Greatest Detroit Tiger By Position: Left Field

Pushing forward, we move out to the outfield where I believe there will be some challenging calls at each position.  To recap however, we had an easy decision at shortstop, an ugly decision at third, and some very intriguing calls at second, first, and catcher. If you’re reading one of these entries for the first…

The Greatest Detroit Tiger By Position: Shortstop

After the ugliness of what is the history of Tigers playing third base, we move to what I am guessing is an easier decision with the Shortstop position.  If you missed the greatest Tigers catcher, first baseman, second baseman, or third base, you can catch up at any point by clicking on the hyperlinks. Again,…

The Greatest Detroit Tiger By Position: Third Base

Moving on in our exploration of the greatest Detroit Tiger at each position, we cover third base today.  To date, I’ve covered off on the Tigers best catcher, first baseman, and second baseman, with first base being the toughest choice so far. My only stipulation for being eligible for consideration is playing the position of…

The Greatest Detroit Tiger By Position: Second Base

As we continue exploring the greatest Detroit Tigers by position of all-time, we’ve already made a case for the Tigers best catcher and first baseman; we now focus in the middle of the diamond and second base. Qualifying requires a minimum of 5-years in the old English D, with a majority of time played at…

The Greatest Detroit Tiger By Position: First Base

Moving on from naming our greatest catcher of all-time for the Detroit Tigers, we take on naming the greatest first baseman of all-time.  If choosing a catcher was difficult, this proves to be one of the biggest battles outside of the right field discussion. With the only criteria of playing for the Tigers for five…

The Greatest Detroit Tiger By Position: Catcher

Last year I explored and readers voted on who should be in the Detroit Tigers Hall of Fame from past and present. This year, I’d like to take a look and give my thoughts on the best Tiger at each position. The main condition I have for consideration will be a minimum of 5-years in…

About Shaneo42

A Detroit Tigers fan through and through which started out around the age of 7 during the 1984 Tiger season and watching games with my dad. That year started an obsession for me with baseball, where I wanted to watch, learn, and play as much as possible to this day. I played some high school ball, rode the pine in college and co-created and wrote Pepper Baseball Blog for eight years. It's time for a fresh start for myself, the blog, and our readers hopefully as I write about the Tigers, Baseball, and my hobby Baseball cards. I hope you enjoy!
