Jeremy Bonderman must be stopped

Tue, 13 May 2008 16:00:41 +1900

There are only three things I want to talk about that actually pertain to this game. The first is Gary Sheffield doubling off of The Farns, which I found inexplicably hilarious. I don’t even know why. Just, Gary Sheffield! And The Farns! Two great crazy tastes that taste crazy together. Somewhere in there is humor. The second is the bullpen, which today contributed 5 scoreless innings ...

Endangered species: Chuck Hernandez?

Tue, 13 May 2008 16:00:41 +1900

Well, someone has to pay for the lack of pitching in Tiger Town. Popular finger pointing , however, goes past the teflon leader Jim Leyland and, rather, to one of his coaches: pitching coach Chuck Hernandez. Which, you know, isn’t real fair in my mind. I understand why the idea comes up. For one, this guy’s looking for a job and has a proven track record doing Hernandez’ ...

Leyland hopes to add Zumaya, Rodney soon

Mon, 12 May 2008 11:58:39 +1900

Progress reports from Lakeland on Joel Zumaya and Fernando Rodney have Tigers manager Jim Leyland anticipating the possibilities. Zumaya (right shoulder surgery recovery) and Rodney (right shoulder tendinitis), the eighth- and seventh-inning setup relievers, could be facing batters soon during their rehabilitation stints. "We're not going to rush them and get greedy," Leyland said ...

Bonderman stays away

Mon, 12 May 2008 19:24:17 +1900

Jeremy Bonderman turned in another disappointing performance in his latest start against the Yankees. It seemed to follow a pattern than Bonderman has established and has led to the worst set of peripherals in his career . Let’s go batter by batter through the first inning to see what went wrong: Bonderman against Damon: Things started out well for Bonderman. He got a first pitch ...

Bondo's peripherals going south

Mon, 12 May 2008 01:31:52 +1900

Watching Jeremy Bonderman, from 2004 through the first half of 2007, you got the feeling that, while maddeningly inconsistent, he was very close to developing into a top pitcher. He had two good fastballs (four seamer and two seamer) and one of the best sliders in the game. His fielding independent statistics were excellent - high strikeouts, low walks and lots of ground balls with relatively

Tigers wait on Sheffield, Cabrera to turn corner

Mon, 12 May 2008 15:24:56 +1900

Miguel Cabrera and Gary Sheffield are expected to be big boppers in the middle of the Detroit Tigers' batting order. Neither has supplied the expected power numbers, but Sheffield has shown signs that he's coming around. Sheffield was 5-for-11 (.455) with two doubles and three RBIs in his last three games of the homestand, which ended Sunday with a rained-out game against the New York ...

The Official Site of The Detroit Tigers: News: Tigers waiting for Cabrera to bust out

Sun, 11 May 2008 02:56:48 +1900

DETROIT -- The Tigers' new $153.3 million man has not lived up to expectations. But that's not to say he won't eventually. Tigers first baseman Miguel Cabrera, a four-time All-Star who was acquired in a December trade with the Marlins, sports a .252 average with six home runs and 22 RBIs this season. He is 6-for-35 in his past nine games, and he hasn't recorded a home run or RBI since May 1. ...

Leyland joins drills in field with Miguel Cabrera | Freep.com | Detroit Free Press

Wed, 7 May 2008 13:30:11 +1900

Jim Leyland got hands-on Tuesday in trying to make Miguel Cabrera a better first baseman. Leyland supervised a roughly 10-minute pregame drill in which Cabrera, positioned at first, took 35 throws generated by a machine placed at second base. Leyland, who put the balls into the machine, made the throws go high and low to first and to each side of the bag. The Tigers manager said he'd be ...

Cabrera's hot, but Tigers' Leyland wants more

Sat, 3 May 2008 19:32:38 +1900

Miguel Cabrera entered the weekend with a nine-game hitting streak. After driving in just two runs in his first 12 games as a Detroit Tiger, he had 20 RBIs in the next 16 games. Jim Leyland wants more, but only because the Detroit Tigers manager believes that Cabrera can do more. "I'm going to tell him that I want to see him bear down every single at-bat for one week, and show how good ...

According to Leyland, it came down to having off days the next two Mondays. Because of that, Justin Verlander was scheduled to start Wednesday at Kansas City with an extra day of rest, then would've had another extra day of rest before his next start. The decision was that it's best to keep Verlander on his normal routine. "I need to get Verlander going," said Leyland, who added that Verlander ...

Does the 40 games mark matter?

Mon, 12 May 2008 17:49:10 +1900

Does the 40-game mark matter as much as we all pretend (due to Sparky Anderson’s desire a team not be judged until then)? Maybe. Maybe not. Around 40 games in 2007 , the 4 American League playoff teams would have been Boston, Cleveland,, Los Angeles and Detroit (wild card). The 4 National League playoff teams were the Mets, the Brewers, the Dodgers and the Padres. World ...
