SO YOU WANT TO BE THE MANAGER.
Totally Tigers
Once again, readers get a chance to make their own decisions about the Tigers. So You Want to Be the Manager? offers you that opportunity.
The segment puts our readers to the test in determining how they would handle decisions as the skipper. So, let?s see what your next assignment is as Tiger manager!
(Comments may be extended for this segment, but please do not exceed 8 sentences in your response. )
Jordan Zimmermann returned from the injured list and made his first start of the season yesterday in St. Louis. His return certainly filled the need for an extra starter for the second game of the doubleheader, but the bullpen again was needed to finish things after the 3rd inning.
The Tiger bullpen has been run pretty ragged as so many Tiger starters have not gone deep into games. So where will Jordan be needed most?
With 17 games remaining, how would you use JZ for the rest of the season. It?s your call. You?re the skipper!
Please participate in the survey in order to state your case. Don?t forget to come back and check the results and include your comments that support your choice.
As the Tiger manager, how would you use Jordan Zimmermann for the rest of the season?
1. Insert JZ into the starting rotation.
2. Give him spot starts when needed.
3. Put him in the bullpen to add some more long relief depth.
4. I have had enough of JZ - let him cheer on his teammates from the dugout.
5. I'm not sure.
6. Other.
