The Detroit Tigers Quietly Have One of the Better Rotations in the AL

At the start of the year, everyone knew how good Justin Verlander was. But it was the last four starers in the back end of Detroit Tigers‘ rotation that brought questions.

Doug Fister was outstanding with the Tigers after the trade last year. Going 8-1 with a 1.79 ERA down the stretch. Max Scherzer showed glimpses of what he could be, but never showed any consistency. Rick Porcello had yet to find any kind of consistency since his rookie year. In the fifth spot the Tigers were turning to a rookie southpaw, named Drew Smyly to hold down the back end of the rotation.

If you take a look at each stater and what they have done this year, you will see the Tigers have one of the better rotations in the American League.
