I know it’s still early, but it would be great not having to begin our sentences with “I know it’s still early”.
Is Inge keeping his hands up? He appears to be off to a promising start.

Looking at the boxscore from today’s game, I am shocked, shocked at the performance of the usual suspects. I know it is still early and there are money issues, but I hope the team leaves camp with the best 25 players rather than the top 22 or 23 and a few high salary guys.

But wait! I thought Willis was looking “tremendous”!

How do I edit my picture? These mazes are giving me headaches. I’ve got one of Paws in a compromising position.

Not very encouraging. Leyland would probably say “Willis and Rodney may walk a few this year.”

Dontrelle got lit up, as did Rodney (1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 0 K, 1 HR). At least Willis only walked one of the 9 batters he faced.

Nice effort from Dontrelle today, didn’t get anybody out when he came out for his second inning. Gave up two unearned runs his first inning, two earned ones his second.

Detroit IP H R ER BB SO HR ERA
Willis 1.0 3 4 2 1 0 0 18.00
Lambert 1.0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.00

I bet Shelton was using PEDs for just April of 2006. There’s no other explanation.

If he had continued on his April 2006 pace, he’d be at 1,000 career HR.

Chris Shelton homered for the Mariners today. I miss that magnificent mole-looking fellow.

David: ‘hot’ is a bit of an understatement.

Kevin: Yeah sounds like a plan. I usually try to make it to every Tigs/Rangers game if I can.
