ST GDT - Detroit Tigers @ Toronto Blue Jays - Lobstein vs. Redmond - 1:05 PM ET

[saskjayfan]

Redmond with a good start...reminds me of litsch. I think he belongs on the roster.

[John_Havok]

matt tuiasosopo made the 17 hour flight over to Australia for opening series, as soon as he got there they told him he was DFA'd and he had to make a 17 hour flight back

 

Must not be scrappy enough for Gibson.

[gruber92]

Melky is melting hot.

[fatcowxlive]

I can't wait to see our offence, it's too sexy

[gruber92]

Atta boy Bautista.. Seitzer effect?

Ouch. Yeah thats a dick move.

[John_Havok]

Edwin just missed that one

[fatcowxlive]

Edwin just missed that one

 

Don Kelly almost missed that one too haha

[John_Havok]

Lawrie a little jumpy today on those first pitches...

[fatcowxlive]

Wow the Tigers have 2 super utility players, Kelly and Lomberdozzi

[fatcowxlive]

Does this mean a possible contract to Drew from the Tigers?

[John_Havok]

Dombrowski already stated they aren't interested in Drew right now.

 

Granted that may change if their current in house options stink up the place

[John_Havok]

Redmond rally keeping the Tigers off balance... Very impressive so far

You're behind lol. Detroit didn't like his price tag and have moved on to other options.

 

Oops lol I am behind, I didn't even know that Iglacias is going to be out for so long lol

[gruber92]

This good start from Redmond so far worries me. He has no business being in the starting rotation,as it should be given to Rogers to start the year. Redmond looks like he can be an effective long man ( reminds me of Dennis Lamp ),which is extremely important this year for us. Rogers just has much better stuff.

[gruber92]

Thole showing he can catch other pitchers too.

 

Yeah, Thole looks really good receiving today.

[fatcowxlive]

Thole showing he can catch other pitchers too.

 

Also that he can occasionally hit! 2 bagger

I need to avoid becoming too optimistic about our rotation but I feel better about it than I did a month ago

 

Only the presence of Happ uspets me because I worry we'll take him for the rotation ahead of Rogers and Redmond, both of whom I think are better

[fatcowxlive]

Wonderful from Goins lol

[G-Snarls]

Melky is melting hot.

 

Damn that's good to see

 

Last year was so disappointing

[G-Snarls]

V-Mart didn't even budge

 

Redmond is a perfectly reasonable #4/5 starter and is making 490k. He's better than Happ who will make 5.2M.

I don't see much difference in Redmond vs Rogers from a results standpoint. Totally different pitchers in that Redmond is far more about mixing pitches and command, while Rogers is more of a power pitcher. Rogers has better overall stuff I think, but Redmond knows how to make his stuff play up.

Too bad we still have to pay Happ's 5 million regardless.

[G-Snarls]

Too bad we still have to pay Happ's 5 million regardless.

 

Unless we trade him and 1.75M to the Phillies for Mayberry Jr.

[John_Havok]

Wonder why Reyes is out after only 2 AB....

[ElNik2013]

Why did Reyes leave game, injury?

[G-Snarls]

Why did Reyes leave game, injury?

 

Jerry and Buck haven't said yet

 

Hopefully not

[fatcowxlive]

Great hit and run call!

 

Also great call on the stop at 3rd!

[G-Snarls]

Melky still hot

 

Rips a double

[Stangstag]

Melky WTF calm down
