Detroit Tigers fans don't actually think the team is a contender, do they?

Yet, somehow they're just behind the Indians for second in their division in late June.

Are fans actually buying into the 2018 Tigers as contenders? Here's what some people are saying with the team at 36-37 and on a five game winning streak since Miggy's season-ending injury.
