Tigers fever is at almost unprecedented levels and there is only one publication to get you ready for the wild ride 2008 promises to be. While other preseason annuals cover all of baseball and never focus on the team you love, Tigers Corner 2008 is a publication that goes beyond the basics and provides the through and intensive treatment of the Tigers that diehard fans crave. It is the most in-depth and informative guide to the upcoming season available and with over 100 pages of thorough Tigers analysis--and full-color, high quality photography--it is unlike anything else available anywhere.

The Tigers are experiencing a real renaissance after winning the AL pennant in 2006 and drawing over three million fans in 2007, but they come back into 2008 thirsty for the World Series championship that has eluded them since 1984. New acquisitions Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis add a booming bat to the middle of the lineup, and a veteran 20-game winner to team up with Bonderman and Verlander, and the sky seems to be the limit for the Bengals.

Tigers Corner 2008 starts by investigating the 2008 team through scouting reports and insider information is exclusive to Tigers Corner and will bring fans up to speed on the new team quickly. Also included is an in-depth look at GM Dave Dombrowskis bold offseason moves and how he mortgaged the future for a shot at glory. Further, an extensive feature on Magglio Ordonez and his 2007 batting championship is included, comparing it to the batting crown won by Norm Cash back in 1961.

The book also revisits Tigers history, including paying homage to the 1968 champions. Thorough and far-reaching interviews with 68 heroes Willie Horton and Jim Northrup are included. A recounting of the epic division battle waged in 1987 with the Toronto Blue Jays and a re-examination of the incredible 1968 and 1969 Cy Young season of Denny McLain are provided as well. Tigers Corner evaluates the entire organization as well with a look at and ranking of the team's top prospects, a feature on prized prospect Rick Porcello, and a sit-down interview with Double A manager Tom Brookens.

It is all packed into 112 pages of information written by Tigers fans with Tigers fans in mind. At the reduced price of $12.99 Tigers Corner 2008 is unmatched for the level and amount of information it presents and is an essential guide for every Motown baseball fan. AVAILABLE ON NEWSSTANDS THROUGHOUT MICHIGAN ON MARCH 4. SHIPPING FROM MAPLESTREETPRESS.COM ON 2/15.
