The Tigers just keep making great plays after great plays considering how bad they are defensively.

Most overrated storyline coming into the season. Teams are unsuccessful because their pitching is shytty or they can't hit. Their range might be lacking, but all these guys can glove the ball just fine. Defense doesn't play THAT big of a factor in a team's overall W/L record.

My point is, all the guys out there are professionals and can field just fine. Even shytty fielders will make most plays.

Swisher is supposed to be a pretty good fielder and he completely whiffed on two huge plays for NY.

It happens to every player and that storyline was getting blown WAY out of proportion for the Tigers coming into the season.

Fair point!! Oh, although Swisher makes plays out in RF, he tends to make you sweat out there.
