Detroit Tigers, Justin Upton, Michigan State Women's Basketball, Michigan State Men's Basketball, College Basketball Rankings, DeShaun Tate, and Michael Onwenu.

Well, it looks like Yoenis Cespedes will not be returning to Detroit, after all. However, to replace him, the Tigers did bring in Justin Upton, a 28-year-old outfielder and three-time All-Star. Al and Isaac give their views on whether the Tigers are doing enough to transform themselves into a winning team once again. Also, Michigan State basketball, both men's and women's, is glanced over. Who is missing from the men's team who might be leaving a big, although largely unnoticed, void? DeShaun Tate, an Atlanta-based college basketball radio producer and columnist, provides an overview of the national spectrum in this year of upsets. Finally, Al and Isaac play fair or foul on Michigan State's recruitment of Michael Onwenu.
