Alex Avila went 3-for-4 with a couple of doubles in the Tigers' 10-6 defeat of the Phillies on Tuesday. As disappointing in 2012 as he was impressive in 2011, Avila is a key player for the Tigers this season. With a .286 average, three doubles and eight walks, he's been productive this spring, though it's come with 11 strikeouts in 28 at-bats. The Tigers need more production from the bottom of their lineup, and Avila bouncing back as at least a .260-15 HR guy would go a long way towards accomplishing that goal.
