Verlander's next start will be skipped to rest him/keep his innings down. Wilfredo Ledezma will take his place for that turn in the rotation.

 

Verlander's next start will now be against you guys...

 

Pretty smart. Rest the young guy while there is a big lead and keep him fresh for the playoffs. IIRC, didn't he have a two week layoff at the all star break as well?

Verlander to miss start with tired arm

 

 

Justin Verlander will miss his start on Sunday because of fatigue in his right arm.

It is getting to be that time of year. Verlander, the league's first 14-game winner, has already thrown five more innings (135 1/3) than he did in 2005. He belives the current problem is nothing he can't pitch through. Still, the Tigers will skip him one turn, something they could do a couple of more times before the regular season is over. Wilfredo Ledezma will start in his place on Sunday. Aug. 4 - 6:58 pm et

 

 

 

 

It starts

Detroit Pitching has an ERA of 4.90 since the All Star Break.

 

If the White Sox didn't have an ERA of 5.70 since the break, you guys would be in real trouble. And if you hold that the rest of the season, the kitties will be in real trouble by September, because we will not be that bad in August.

Maybe we won't be that bad either? :huh I'm not anymore confident in Garcia and Vasquez than I am in Rogers and Verlanders arm.

Garland - 3.42

 

Buehrle - 8.86

 

Garcia - 4.73

 

Vazquez - 7.79

 

Combined - 5.49

 

This looks pretty good for the Sox considering our guys have been looking better as of late. We don't need stats to know our offense is better than theirs. So here is our glimmer of hope. (These #'s do include today's games.)

WIthout that odd inning in Minnesota Bonderman's would not be that high..

 

ANyhow, I am not worried. Take Rogers out and it is near the Sox's.

Too bad he is the Tigers number 2 guy.

The 5 ER today weren't too kind to his ERA either.

Damn I hate the Tigers.

 

Casey Blake nearly gave the game away. Cleveland still up though. :)
