I'm afraid your Detroit Tigers just set themselves back another five years.

Now Trammell can go manage another team into the playoffs for consecutive seasons like his predecessor Garner.

now rumor is that Leyland will be the next one.....wonder if Pudge will start bitching again.
I always wished Trammel and Whitaker were Yankees.
Is Leyland that much of an improvement over Trammell? Going from a 47 year old to a 60 year old who hasn't managed in 6 years is kind of odd for a "rebuilding" team.
I think Dombrowski is looking at the fact that Leyland brings winning experience with him...Trammell was a gamble as an unknown as a manager as he was hired after being a hitting coach..Tigers have a good core, it's whether or not they can get everything moving in the right direction....I like management expected them to be a club that hovered closer to a 79-83 record than a 71-91
Tram probably took them as far as he could. We'll see what Leyland has left.
I didn't know that Detroit had a MLB team???
My kids rock the flock!
Garner lucked into a great situation in Houston. He had more talent than he clearly had at Detroit or Milwaukee, and the fact that he was a former Astro and fan favorite didn't hurt, either.Originally Posted by Scott D
Trammell doesn't have that going for him, considering the Tigers were the only team he played for in his career.
I didn't know Leyland was still alive.Originally Posted by OUthunder
