That's the joke!

(For all his troubles, he still managed a 2.11 ERA last year)

Gave up more walks than strikeouts and gave up a runner and a half per inning, but pitched to the score, I guess.

[RandyMarsh]

Our last big pitcher signing Zimmermann threw 7 shutout innings in his first start with the team and we know how that turned out. 

Perhaps the opposite will happen with Erod since he struggled in his first start.

I can't believe the un-retired Inge's number for this guy 

[1776]

Can the Tigers build on the one hit attack to this point? 

[casimir]

The home crowd is kind of lethargic.  They need a streaker on the field.  Somebody text oblong.

"getting away with using Hutchison" should be a stat.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

[lordstanley]

On the board! 

[Motor City Sonics]

Miggy's up............TURN ON THE SNOW MACHINE !!!!!!!!

[Motor City Sonics]

TURN THOSE MACHINE'S BACK ON !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[romad1]

mollycoddling 

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

that's some BS right there on that interference call.

[Motor City Sonics]

WHAT THE EVER-LOVING FUCK IS THAT......................

[lordstanley]

That’s harsh!

[romad1]

under review?

[Motor City Sonics]

This is still sports, right?   

[lordstanley]

It seems more unsafe to restrict slides so much.

I resemble that remark!

[Motor City Sonics]

Why don't we just play video games instead of real games because someone might get hurt. 

Candy-ass bullshit right there. 

[Motown Bombers]

So what if he doesn't slide and take a throw to the face? 

[Motor City Sonics]

We won the division in 1987 probably because of a Bill Madlock slide

The argument is that he slid too late and then rolled into his lower legs................

[Scottwood]

That's tough. The Tigers will eventually need to stop batting one of their worst hitters in the 5th spot in the batting order.

That kind of injury would be fine.......I guess. 

[Motor City Sonics]

The Tigers lineup is kind of designed to continue being a threat 1-8, so other than the first time around does it really matter who bats 5th?      The have a non-power hitter at cleanup.
