Balta1701 Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 1, 2011 -> 03:24 PM) Question on the Tigers...do they have any bad contracts after this year? Aren't Ordonez and Inge gone after this year? Come on man, the Google isn't that hard to use. No, their bad contracts end after this year. They have good money tied up in their good players, but start off at $72 million this offseason, $81 if they pick up the option on Valverde. They did pare back a lot of salary last offseason, but not as much as they could have...they spent money to bring guys like Ordonez back.

LittleHurt05 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 1, 2011 -> 12:36 PM) What inning will the Tigers come back today? I'm thinking they skip the dramatics and take the lead in the 5th. Damn, off by one inning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When would he have used Benoit? They were losing by the 7th, he pitched two innings two days ago, and they have six straight games against the Sox & Indians coming up.

Sorry, meant the throw-away part with holding Verlander back and then going with Turner, Perry and Coke. I'm not complaining, if they pitch Verlander in this game, it's likely another win for them we'd have to make up the rest of the way. BTW, is Al Al expected back soon?

Speaking of Coke, these are his numbers in August as a reliever: 12 IP, 8 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 20 K So much for converting him to a starter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is ironic, because it was being argued that Crain should have been used yesterday instead of Frasor, when we were three runs down instead of two.

Being off the following day and the fact he faced one batter over the previous four makes kind of makes a big difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
