It has been a challenging time for all of us Tiger Fans hasn't it. Our beloved team has been in a bit of a slump over the last month and there's been days in which reading the Sports section has been traumatic, but...

But, they are still in first, they are still in the drivers' seat and there are 10 games left. It's starting to get safe to say that things are getting better for the Tigers, after all they have won the last two series, beating Baltimore and then beating Chicago so there is hope. Of course and this has to be par for the course, right on their heels is the Minnisota Twins. These guys have been the Tigers' nemesis for more years then I care to recall, but they are still looking up at the Tigers and I have to believe the Twinkies can't keep their streak going for long. Oh by the way, thanks Boston for turtling on the Twins, yeah you handed the AL East to the hated Yankees but couldn't you have put up a bit of a fight.

Still, ten games to go, that's all and the AL Central championship will belong to the Tigers.

You gotta believe.
