It was no secret coming into the 2012 MLB season that the American League Central was one of the worst divisions in baseball. Most of the pundits automatically anointed the defending Detroit Tigers champions before the season even started, so it’s surprising to some (not me) that the Detroit Tigers are 17-17.
