Beware the Tigers.

"Suddenly, with all the things we focus on around here, like the Yankees getting their rotation set for the postseason, or even the Red Sox getting healthy before October, is it time to wonder if the Tigers may be the AL's best team?

'Not a chance,' said an American League scout who has been following Detroit for much of the streak. 'I don't see them as close to the Yankees or Red Sox. They've just gotten fat lately against the Indians and White Sox, who are playing embarrassing baseball.'

With Justin Verlander at the top of the rotation, however, the scout says the Tigers are not going to be a fun matchup for any team in the ALDS."

Right.

The Yankees, Red Sox, Tigers, Rangers, and Angels will be a difficult ALDS matchup.

Somebody has to win. It might be the Yankees.
