What if Juan Gonzalez had signed that contract. What do you speculate would have happened?

Bobby Higginson would have been more favorably remembered.

Perhaps we wouldn't have had to wait soooooo long for a World Series trip. I think most people would be speaking of the Tigers organization as a dynasty right now.

He would be more of a whipping boy than Matt Millen is today.

Depends on how healthy he would have been while here.

I think his highest attainment would have been Dimitri Young status. His lowest? Below Higginson status

In all honesty I think by now he still would be chronically injured and so insurance would be paying the majority of his salary. However, he wouldn't dare retire until it expired in a few years. He would be miserable, the fans would have someone to hate 10 fold what they put Bobby Higginson through and our "plan" would have continued to be to field mediocre aging vets that made us just good enough to win 75 games every year and not get a chance at an elite prospect.

I think I am the only person on this entire board who actually kind of misses Alex Sanchez. I used to love all his bunt base hits, his head-first slides into first. He even hit the occasional HR. Yeah his defence was awful, but I think I still liked him better than Nook Logan.

With that said, yes I obviously like CuGr better.

What if the Tigers had hired Ken Macha in 2003 instead of Tram?

Macha, Juan gone? Neither is the correct answer. That could drive one to be an Indians fan.

What if Tony Blair, Willie Blair, and Doug Bair are all related?

It's a long time between Tigers' games, isn't it?
