None of the guys have proven they're ready for a major league rotation, so it will simply come down to who has the best spring. If no one has a good spring, it'll go to V/Z because atleast they have shown that they'll eventually be ready for it. But Ledezma over Colon?

It’s a tossup. None of the guys have proven they’re ready for a major league rotation, so it will simply come down to who has the best spring. If no one has a good spring, it’ll go to V/Z because atleast they have shown that they’ll eventually be ready for it.

I understand the excitement and anticipation of Verlander. Personally I'd rather he start out in Toledo unless he's lights out in spring training. But Ledezma over Colon?

I don't know if it's that they hate us, as much as it wuld actually constitute work for them to think it through critically.

Wed, 04 Jan 2006 04:26:34 +0000 http://www.detroittigersweblog.com/2006/01/projected-lineup/#comment-1498 I'd be shocked if Logan starts over Granderson in center, too. Especially because, if you ask me, one of <i>the</i> stories of the Tigers' offseason is how highly valued Granderson (and Zumaya) are by other organizations. From what I've read, the Tigers could've been in on any of the big deals this offseason, if they'd been willing to part with those guys. No wonder they're still here.

There is no national respect, let alone following, for the Tigers, so these dedicated local blogs are godsends. All hail King Billfer! :) Adam,

I wouldn't mind seeing Pena start over Young but I agree it's not clear cut at all. I think if Young shows up in shape, then he'll get the regualr DH job with Shelton at 1B. If he's still out of shape, then Pena will probably play more. I’ll be pretty upset if Logan starts over Granderson next year.
