To Ride or Not to Ride?

The Klopfenstein's are 35 days away from Lakeland and Spring Training with the Tigers!  Hotel Reservations - Check!   Tickets - Check!  Motorcycle - Not so sure.  Really want to ride in Lakeland, but right now my trailer hauling vehicle is on it's last legs.  Not sure I trust that thing to pull the trailer through the mountains of KY, TN and GA at 75 MPH!  We will see what we do.  I can't believe how much they want to rent a truck for a week....do I just give in and buy a truck?

Can't wait to see what is in store for the Tigers this year.  Should be a good year, but the Tigers will miss Prince backing up Miggy.  In the 2 years Prince was there Miggy won 2 MVPs.  We will see what happens this year to be sure.

Will the Tigers get Max Scherzer signed before opening day?  Will he break the bank?  Does it make sense?  Will Andy Dirks have a bounce back year or was 2012 his swan song season.  Can Alex Avilia rebound from the last 2 years and hit .280 with 15 HR and 80 RBIs?  Can Torii Hunter have another great year in RF? 

My opening day Lineup:
 2B -Kinsler
RF - Hunter
1B - Miggy
DH - Victor
3B - Castellanos
C - Avilia
LF - Dirks
CF - Jackson
SS - Igleias
P - Verlander
