They just might keep him in AAA for emergency use or like mentioned above, place him on waivers. I guess what bugs me is all the talk about him still being the Tigers future 1st baseman. Well, that was a bunch of BS. Not even a callup for Shelton. They just might keep him in AAA for emergency use or like mentioned above, place him on waivers.

By using them instead of the "regular" players, the regulars will get rusty. Maybe if someone needs a couple days off to recouperate, but that's about it. I have mixed feelings about so many callups.

But ya know what: I think our Tigers are tougher for having gone through that. And I think it's a Good Thing. Particularly in the area of pitching. Some of our middle guys -- Durbin, Miner, Grilli, Seay -- these guys have got a whole lot tougher I'd sooner seen Seay take the mound to finish the Mariners last night than Rodney. Zoom got the job done but it wasn't pretty. Actually it was the Tiger fieldiers that got the job done. We may see a few different faces around regular, finishig up here in Sept. and likley next season and some of this is going to be related to the enthusiasm and dedication that the individual players have. the energy level brought to the game by the players does make a difference. ya can't measure enthusiasm by numbers and stats but guess what: the fans sense it, and so does our trusty manager, Mr Leyland Go Tigers!
