I'm not sure if that's true, but I'm developing a chronic lack of confidence in his stuff. Jim likes him a lot all of a sudden this year. Maybe he feels bad about going with Durbin instead last year.

He was pretty decent in a relief role in '07, and he was at least equal to what Maroth would have been (probably better) as a starter in '06 so you know he's got ability. And he's shown signs of being good this year. Of course he's also shown the ability to give up 7 runs in 1/3 of an inning. Miner has been a bit of an enigma this year.

Maybe deceptively good, but his ERA during the losing streaks was 1.59 (I think). The curt statement by Leyland makes me think Cruceta's done for, but save the napalm for Miner. Every time I think he might be OK after all, he isn't. Chris, something interesting about Cruceta is that he put up some good numbers when the Tigers were at their worst.

For example: "Wow, Francisco Cruceta makes me want to shower in napalm." or "Wow, I wonder if Casey Fossum can sustain an infinity ERA."

I'm guessing he hasn't been claimed yet but still may be. Someone else here surely knows. David G, I’ve been looking for info on Cruceta and can’t find any.

That's the kind of performance that can turn the season around. I mean Billfer's. Dolsi stinks. No, really, I don't know if I can recall a pitching performance this season that made anyone here go WOW, not simply "good job" It's about time. Gil can't do it all, tiff, but it might be his turn to do a little more of it. Nice blog, Blake. I've only glanced at it before, read a little further this time and enjoyed it. And I shouldn't complain about Rodney. He's pitching and striking guys out. If Mr. Sexy continues to shine, maybe they'll take their time with Rodney like they probably should.
