In 2005, the Toledo Mud Hens won their first Governor’s Cup (the International League championship) since 1967. The team then repeated in 2006 despite barely making the playoffs (they needed to win a one game playoff just to get in). The skipper of both of those teams was former Tiger manager Larry Parrish, who was highlighted recently at Minor League Baseball. Good stuff.
Brian,
I was browsing the Net when I ran across your blog and found it not only entertaining, but informative.
After reading the insightful dialogue I was curious if you might be interested in contributing to the new launch of our baseball section this season.
Gridiron Grumblings, a fantasy football website since 1995 is building out into a year round hub and will launch a new site, January 15, renamed Sports Grumblings, and add MLB, NBA, and the NHL.
If this interests you in any fashion or form, and increasing the traffic of you personal blog is something you are looking to do, please let me know so we can discuss the possibility of you contributing and covering the Tigers.
If not, then know I will check in on you from time to time and read your tasteful blog.
Happy New Year
Tony Finn
