The last time the Tigers were in Baltimore (don’t worry, I’ll stop these “last time the Tigers” things soon), Orioles fans staged a walk out protesting Peter Angelos ownership. It was a game I happened to be at. [...] [...] PREGAME: It’s Opening Day in Baltimore, a day of renewed hope and optimism for O’s fans.

None of the others (including Comerica IMO) really come close (I haven't been to San Diego, Philly or St. Louis yet), though the view from the upper deck at Coors field is pretty impressive.

If you don't use Zumaya for 2 inning at a time, who do you bring in for the other inning? I suspect the answer is . . . Rodney. I think using Rodney and Zumay for 2 innings at a time on an alternating basis rather than 1 inning each on a regular basis is the way to go. Both have a tendency to be a little wild when they first enter a game. Better to deal with that once per game than twice. Hmmmm.

For a pitcher, the bottom line is runs allowed. When the game is on the line, would you rather bring in Fernando Rodney and his 1.16 WHIP and 3.44 ERA, or Joel Zumaya and his 1.18 WHIP with a 2.00 ERA? ...wait I think that's exactly what happened... And now that I mention it, I don't like the habit of using Zumaya for 2 innings each outing. If you leave the bases loaded every inning, after 9 it’s still a shutout.

Other than the 5 BB, I don't know what else could be complained about....it's a 3.00 game ERA for chrissakes across 6IP.
