The Detroit Tigers surprised MLB watchers by securing their 50th win before the favored Los Angeles Dodgers. Contributors like Tarik Skubal, Riley Greene, and Javier Baez have powered their success this season. Experts weigh in on the Tigers' potential, questioning if they are truly the best team in the American League and if they could handle a postseason showdown against teams like the Yankees. With the competitive landscape of the AL, it's unclear who will emerge as the frontrunner come October, leading to a discussion on matchups for a possible Tigers-Yankees ALCS.
If you picked the mighty Los Angeles Dodgers to be the first team to win 50 games this MLB season, you weren't alone. You were also wrong.
But are they really as good as they've played so far? Are they even the American League's best team? Could they defeat the Dodgers in the World Series?
This feels like a season in which, by the time we get to October, there's not going to be a clear-cut front-runner in the AL.
If we zero in on a possible Tigers-Yankees ALCS, I like the interchangeability of the Detroit staff, which we saw in action late last year.
