After losing seven straight and finally snapping that streak late two weeks ago to win a series against the Chicago White Sox, the Tigers split a two-game series with the competitive Chicago Cubs and continued their tormenting of the Cleveland Indians, winning two of three games to improve to 7-2 against the Tribe this season.

Though only playing five games this past week, from June 8 to 14, the Tigers managed a winning week for the first time in a while, finishing at 3-2. The Tigers also seem on the verge of getting injured guys back that will help, after Justin Verlander came back and pitched well on Saturday.

Predictably, we have more heroes than zeroes in this week’s column and we will start with the zeros first.
