Christopher Barger on the outlook for the Tigers from Laurie Mayers on Vimeo.

The Washington Nationals and the Detroit Tigers start their baseball seasons today, the Nationals at home against the Phillies and the Tigers in Kansas City. I am sorry not to be at either stadium on Opening Day, but will definitely catch Pudge Rodriguez in his current home later this season. The Tigers have upset some fans by trading star and all-around nice guy center fielder Curtis Granderson to the Yankees and by paying $8 million for evil aging Yankee/former Red Sox Johnny Damon. In any case, I saw social media evangelist Christopher Barger in Detroit last week (disclosure: client) and asked him about the coming season. (This is my first video; I’ll do better next time with the edits and the unsteady cam.)
