OK, so the Tigers have had a little slogan for years. It asks: Who's Your Tiger?
A few years back my Tiger was Nate Robertson, not so much because he could play baseball but because he started a superstition in late innings where he and his teammates chewed gum if the team was behind. Like wearing the rally cap, it was supposed to help them come back.
After Robertson, I joked that my Tiger was Gerald Laird. But, let's face it, he sucked. And that's why he is the backup catcher for the Cardinals now.
My Tiger these days in Justin Verlander. He had a no-hitter into the eighth tonight. He already has two no-hitters in his career. Verlander rules -- my first winning Tiger.
