Tigers-Marlins

Does it really change the balance of power in the AL Central? Cabrera is tough, I'll grant, and that lineup is scary. But, do we really expect a guy who had an ERA over 5 last year to come to the AL and get significantly better?

Unfortunately, it appears that the Tigers are trying to win now in the same window as the Indians, and the Tribe can't keep up the spending arms race. If that kind of spending starts in the Central, we could be looking at 40 years of White Sox and Tigers. Salary cap, please?
