Tigers vs CC

DETROIT -- Apparently Nick Castellanos' two-way day Friday earned himself a day off.

Mike Aviles will make his first start for the Detroit Tigers Saturday when they host the New York Yankees in Game 2 of their weekend series at Comerica Park (1:10 p.m., FSD+, MLB Network).

Aviles will play at third base and hit eighth in the Detroit lineup, subbing for Castellanos, who was 4-for-4 and made a nice over-the-shoulder catch in Friday's 4-0 win over New York.

Aviles is hitting .360 off CC prolly has something to do with the start today for him over Nick IMO

Game Time weather forecast 30 degrees light snow expected

Snow in grand rapids wonder if it missed detroit?

 

[hellifino]

That's one thing I hated about Leyland,A guy would have a great day at the plate and sit the next game.When you got a player hot,play him.Wait till he starts to struggle then give him a day off. Fing stupid!

Not sure if Detroit got any last night or not, got a good 1-2 inches in the Lansing area. Another inch projected for tomorrow morning also. Then Spring is supposed to show up sometime next week I hear.

 

[gotime909]

Yeah, not quite sure I agree with sitting Nick. Especially vs a lefty

 

[gotime909]

God damn McCann's got a gun

 

[gotime909]

I hate Arod, but he went down and hit a decent pitch out. Fucker

God damn McCann's got a gun

Kept A-roid's homerun a solo!

Pelfrey looks pretty good out there today

 

[Mitchrapp]

Upton is just a little bit behind so far..

Yeah, wait till second time through lineup, balls are gonna start flying out. All the guy does is throw sinkers. He is not looking that good. More like, looking lucky.

Get used to this when Pelfrey pitches. The guy is just not a good pitcher.

As long as he doesn't give up 4 runs in the first 3 innings we still have a chance. All the terrible pitching last year ugggg

At 4 games in, time for faith. I didn't like the signing but willing to give him a chance. He doesn't need to be top drawer, he is a number 4/5 pitcher after all.

 

[stonecold2136]

2nd time through the line up can Pelfrey make it r get knocked out before like we seen so many times last year

 

[tigermud]

Tigers 9 up 9 down, fat boy doesn't throw hard enough bats out in front of everything, take a step or two up in the box and rip em

Soft tosen lefties still tigers nemesis

 

[Mitchrapp]

I thought he could have had it.

 

[gotime909]

I thought he could have had it.

Yeah, bad luck inning for Pelfrey.

 

[tigermud]

Pelfrey done, farmer coming in, pelfrey was terrible today
