The key will be to make the "big guys" on the corners move their feet,and come in to chase balls and make plays off balance. Young in left field is going to kill the Tigers with his defense.

It's not that the infielders don't like to come in..they can't!! LOL Too big and heavy. Though to be honest, Cabrera has done remarkably well considering he had to learn to be a 3rd baseman again. Fielder is a garbage 1st baseman. Period. Too short.
Delmon is a trainwreck for defense. Which is why he's been a DH. Having no DH in the playoffs for away games definitely hurts the Tigers.
