7. We got one.
Dave Dombrowski built the first Marlins world championship team. And before that, he was with the Expos, leading them to win the NL East in a strike shortened season...the only team since 1990 to win a division title in the NL East except for the Braves. And of course, they had the smallest payroll, too.

Dombrowski is a genius. He took over at the beginning of 2003. It will take him 4-6 years to turn the Tigers into a force in the AL Central. Owner Mike Illich has an open checkbook and "will keep spending until the Tigers win." So far, it has been less than 3 years. The Tigers may easily finish over .500 this year for th efirst time in 12 years. In 2006, all bets are on them winning the Central.
