The Detroit Tigers and Seattle Mariners have had very different fortunes over the past decade. The Tigers have enjoyed arguably their most successful stretch in club history, winning four division titles and appearing in two World Series. They have won more games than any team in baseball since 2011, an impressive feat in any era.
Meanwhile, the Mariners have not appeared in the postseason since 2001. They have just three winning seasons in the past 12 years, including an 87-75 campaign in 2014 that saw them finish one game behind the Oakland Athletics for the second AL Wild Card spot.
