Detroit vs. Everybody: Are the Tigers the team to beat in MLB?

If you picked the mighty Los Angeles Dodgers to be the first team to win 50 games this MLB season, you weren't alone.

You were also wrong.

If you picked the Detroit Tigers, congratulations! We're not sure we believe you, but we'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

The Tigers won their 50th game on Tuesday, a full day before the Dodgers, and they got there thanks to big contributions all season from ace Tarik Skubal, the red-hot Riley Greene and the resurgent Javier Baez, among many others.
