AUTHOR TALK: Your Detroit Tigers - The Great, The Good, The Top 400
In Your Detroit Tigers: The Great, the Good, the Top 400 veteran scribe Tom Gage —with commentary from former Tiger Alex Avila—gets down to the hard work of deciding the best of the best Tigers stars of all time, from the franchise joining the American League in 1901 to the present.
It's a journey through Tigers’ history that is precise, clear-eyed, and performance-based. No heartstrings here, and no subjective cases to be made. Gage deploys algorithms individualized by role: 14 performance metrics for hitters and eight for pitchers.
The 400 Tiger tales shared within represent the most extensive ranking of the Tigers ever undertaken. Who deserves to be first? Who should be 10th? Or 20th? How about 120th? Your Detroit Tigers is a book no Tigers fan should be without, certain to entertain, educate, create new perspectives, and result in endless debates.
