papelbon for castellanos wil be in play if phils are out

still think they would have been better off signing kevin gregg of the cubs, we will get a closer, not worried, just hope we dont have to give up too much like castellanos

Papelbons contract might make the price lower than Castellanos.

Yep. Won't take players, just insane contract absorption to get Pap or Cliff Lee out of Philly if the Phils fade. They'll take Toledo's worst 30-year-old bum and some Little Caesars coupons.

no coupons necessary at Little Caesars and don kelly sounds about good to me

give them credit for the deep deep dish though, its halfway decent
and the hammer at red wings games is the best lil caes pizza around, even if its $13

Out of all the cardboard pizzas, they might be the cardboardiest. Obviously sold a lot of 'em though.

Disappointed by this sensible move. Benoit will probably be fine. Any rumblings of Smyly getting closing opportunities, or do they like him more in that multi-inning role?

He's going to be a late inning guy now. I think they said Downs moving to middle relief.
from Free Press:
Leyland made clear today that he now considers Smyly a late-inning reliever. He said Darin Downs, who has been used in some late-inning spots, is more likely to be used earlier in games as a long man

Just like the beginning of the season, Leyland has the perfect opportunity to unshackle himself from bullpen roles. Just tell those guys to be ready, don't call us, we'll call you.

I wonder if Verlander's extra pitches the last few seasons are beginning to catch-up to him as he doesn't look the same as he did a couple seasons ago?
At least the Tiger's have a stopper and true ace in Maxx.

First time in I can't remember, Tribe misses Verlander in a series in this one on deck if the Tigs stay on rotation. Big 4-gamer coming up this weekend, boys, still early but should be fun.

Porcello gets to sit out six games for beaning Ray's Zobrist. I didn't see this play and if anyone has a link to view it, it'd be appreciated. The problem was this started with Rodney going upstairs and nearly adding a welt to Ka-boom's face. When I saw that, I was thinking there's going to be payback. Don't get me wrong, I love my Florida teams but what he did was 100% WRONG!

schilling laughed this off, citing in 2009 75% of verlanders fastballs were 95mph or higher, this year his rate is at just 25%. said its just a mental thing, but bottom line is he has lost a lot off of it over the years. should be interesting to watch.
detroit187

if you notice as well, he will often nod or tip his cap to the pitcher in his first at bat of every game and at times will tip his hat to the dugout of the opposing team in his first at bat quite often. dude is awesome.

Sanchez is a really good pitcher and the Tigers should thank the idiots of Miami for sending him to them along with Omar.
Detroit got to fill two spots while the Marlins, are well ... you know.

ya I had always seen the first one, just never noticed the K one
like he's basically saying "you got me" just love that he does it, made me like him more than I all ready did

Verlanders specifically said he found out what he was doing that was making him not have control of his fastball which is probably why his rate is down -- he doesn't have his control and knows it.
also schilling is an assclown

agree schilling is an assclown, but he did state facts about the speed of his fastball and the regression over the years. lets see what he brings not just tonight, but going forward. i have faith.

Fireballers always burn out a little faster (except for Nolan Ryan), but not this fast. For whatever reason, Kate Upton maybe, JV hasn't been on his game. I bet he comes around. As an Indians fan, I'll confess to a literal sigh of relief we're missing him this weekend. I'd rather take my chances against Mad Max on Monday.
