Answering who will be the Detroit Tigers DH in 2012 is not an easy thing to do. The Tigers have many candidates, but will need to find the one that is the most effective.

Prince Fielder is headed for Motown. After biding his time this offseason, the game's top remaining free agent agreed to a massive nine-year, $214 million deal with the Detroit Tigers.

Free agent first baseman Prince Fielder and the Detroit Tigers agreed Tuesday on a nine-year, $214 million contract that fills the AL Central champions' need for a power hitter, a person familiar with the deal said.

CBS first reported the agreement. The person told the Associated Press that the deal was subject to a physical.

The Detroit Tigers hopes of capturing a second straight American League Central title in 2012 took a big hit today.

Even though the Detroit Tigers have been in the mix, and rumored to be after many free agents at Baseball's Winter Meetings in Dallas, it is starting to look less likely that they will make a big splash there.

This may not sound like a huge deal, usually when a team signs a backup catcher it does not resonate much with its fans.

So far, it has been a pretty mixed bag or results for Detroit Tigers prospects in the Arizona Fall League.

The Good News for the Detroit Tigers is that Catcher Alex Avila one the American League Silver Slugger Award as the Cather.

That last loss, 15-5 to the Texas Rangers, has really soured my outlook on what this team was able to do during the 2011 regular season.

Sure the Detroit Tigers won 95 games in the regular season. Sure they won their division and advanced to the ALCS, but this is a team with some very real needs.
