Neither Benoit nor Valverde should pitch in this ballgame.

I wonder if they let the new guy throw the last inning.

5 run cushion might be the best odds he'll get.

Neither Benoit nor Valverde should pitch in this ballgame.

I agree you go mop up guy.....period..And save the other two..

Completely agree but Valverde hasn't pitched in a few days so bank on it he'll be in there in a non save, smokes has become an X and Y guy.

Well then it goes to the organization in that case.

For fucks sake, the guy was signed to be a Triple A filler.

 

[tigermud]

now watch him throw 50 pitches so we can't use him tomorrow.

Only our top 4 guys have been on base more than once today.

Santiago and Eldred both fail to reach at all.

 

[Thumb]

Oh well.

Wouldn't be a game with a rollercoaster ride.

 

[lonesometiger]

Valverde in the 9th?

 

[biggunsbob]

Jim is a dumb shit..

 

[johnny2x2x]

Come on Jose!!!!

 

[biggunsbob]

God guys who cares about Eldred... Give the 31 year old a chance.... He may hit a few homers and help the club...

 

[hellifino]

Valverde is a damn closer Jimmy, get in the fucking ballgame you idiot.

 

[dpinsea]

Looks like papa grande still doesnt like non save situations.

 

[tigermud]

Jim is a dumb shit..

A manager has to know his team and use it correctly. I don't care for this black and white style smokes has morphed into.

 

[biggunsbob]

whats the freaking pitch count?

I could say the same thing about Raburn.

You don't use a closer in a 5 run game.. Period and i don't care about his lack of work..

 

[jimrice]

You guys get mesmerized by "save situations". Tigers need this win and the Yankees could easily put a 5 spot on a crummy reliever. I have no problem with using the best reliever here.

 

[biggunsbob]

I could say the same thing about Raburn.

Only if it July or later and he does not play 2nd base..
