1ST PITCH IS IN 7 DAYS!! We dug into the AL Central today and found some value with 2 team totals. The White Sox should win this division again but their team total is right where it should be and the division winner is juiced too much for my liking. I have the 2 teams below that I ended up finding value in their team totals.

Detroit Tigers
The Tigers are coming off one of their better seasons in recent years winning 77 games and while they lost a couple pieces to free agency, they made up for it and more by signing star SS Javier Baez, LHP Eduardo Rodriguez, RHP Michael Pineda and trading for their starting catcher, Tucker Bardhart. In year 2 of manager AJ Hinch, the Tigers look to make a playoff run for the first time in a long while. The young pitching staff can only get better with the additions of Rodriguez and Pineda, on and off the field. It is underestimated how important it is to have veterans in the clubhouse that features a very young and promising core. Which is also why I love the additions of Baez and Bardhart. Detroit will be calling up their future 1st baseman and center fielder at some point this season, 1B Spencer Torkelson, who may become the Tigers best hitter the day he arrives and CF Riley Green will help bolster the already talended outfield for Detroit. Barring injuries, there is only one way for this team to go. Take Over their 77.5 team total -110
Minnesota Twins
The Twins are entering 2022 after a disappointing 2021 season as they missed the playoffs by only winning 73 games. A big part of that was due to their starting pitching who ranked 20th in the league in WHIP and 24th in FIP last season while their bullpen gave up 1.33 HR/9 in the second have of the season, which also ranked 24th in the MLB. They really struggled after the all star break and it showed on offense when they dropped from 9th to 20th in wOBA and 7th to 18th in wRC+. First things first, they need Byron Buxton to stay healthy for a change. Other than that, they will need this team to mesh as there are a bunch of new faces and, other than new SS Carlos Correa, its hard to say whether any of the new faces are upgrades. C Gary Sanchez will take over as the starting catcher but will be a big liability on defense while Gio Urshela will take over 3rd base and Sonny Gray to be inserted into the rotation but its fair to say their best days are in the past. I just don’t see how this team has improved by more than 10 games this season. Take Under 83.5 wins -106
