It doesn’t get completely surreal until the Tigers break out of the gate fast, and stay in first through 19 ges. At this point, they are a serious contender. Experimentation is not easiest when you either are getting waxed and you have nothing to lose, or you are holding onto a surmountable lead and need a boost; its hard when you’re so far ahead you are afraid to tinker, but the Tigers, at least Rolfe, always knew that if they were going to hold on, it would been by the thinnest of margins, that they needed reinforcements. His journal is not filled with disappointments it appears he knows are human limits of his existing roster, especially on the pitching side. Calvert stunk, and Rolfe wasn’t getting a great deal of help from the non-starter arms on the roster — no one was reasonably consistent in finishing off ges. Here was that part of the te…an injured veteran starter who got a little ‘pen work, four established mediocrities Rolfe squeezed some above-their-norm work out of, and three kids (one of whom went on to have a respectable career):jazz guitar string

I asked editor Willi Anderson who had read all the materials if there’d been any discussion he’d omitted and he explained, no, there hadn’t been a single mention. What does it mean when a driven manager doesn’t even grasp at the chance to improve by adding a serious player?
