PREGAME: The key for Detroit in tonight’s game falls on Justin Verlander’s shoulder. With a depleted bullpen, it would be nice for Justin to at least get through 6 innings, preferably with the lead. To do that he’ll need to be considerably more efficient than he was in his last start in Cleveland. He only walked 3 batters while fanning 6, but struggled with his control and pitched from behind in the count. And quite frankly, if Verlander doesn’t turn in 6 innings, it very well may prove to be the key to tomorrow night’s game as well.
On the other side Kevin Millwood takes the mound for the Rangers. In his first start off the disabled list he was touched for 10 hits, 9 of which were singles, in 5 innings of work.

fyi Robertson’s been sent to the DL; Miller will be called back up to take his spot starting sunday
YESSSS
I figured they’d do something like this. Remember when they sent Rodney for an upper body realignment? I love Nate, and sure hope whatever’s wrong can be made right.
Well, there’s a nice $10,000 donation by Sheff.
I don’t think Carlos is healed 100% either. Mario and Rod said Carlos says “he feels fine” but he said the same thing when he was playing in Seattle? and had TB and was dragging himself to the ballpark every day.
Nice start…
Make It 20,000 for Sheff!!
Payback time!
$10,000 for Carlos
Royals win!!
Good!!!! Did anyone else notice Pudge has the socks pulled up tonight.
OMG NEIFI BATTED 1.000!!!
I might be wrong, but I think in every one of Justin Verlander’s strikeouts, the third strike was a curveball.
Adam, he made a great play for Jonsey. Flashed that leather tonight!!
And, did you catch the last comment from the newscast guys after the game? Zach Miner is on the DL.
Seriously, is Sheff the Hulk? A day or two of media ripping on him, and he hits baseballs far. Throw at him, and he hits baseballs far. Baseballs don’t like him when he’s mad. We need to organize playoff volunteers to interview him about Bonds/’roids or key his car. Who’s takin’ one for the team?
