Edwin Jackon's run support has been almost criminally bad, but it's worse when you consider the quality of opposing pitchers he's faced – It's Just Sports It's one thing that the Tigers don't score for E Jack, but considering how many times they've faced bad pitchers and not scored… Final Thoughts on the Fenway Fracas [...]

PREGAME: The Tigers come home and they get to face Zach Greinke People have been saying that Greinke is fading some. I just don’t see it. In his last 3 games he does have a 5.50 ERA, but he still fanned 21 and walked just 6 in those 3 starts. Six of the 11 runs [...]

14.08.2009 5 comments

Adam Wilk was Detroit’s 11th round pick from the 2009 draft. The left handed junior from Long Beach State was assigned to Oneonta where he fanned 34 and walked 5 in 37.1 innings spanning 7 starts.

Wilk was kind enough to answer some questions for DTW.

Game 2009.114: Tigers at Red Sox

13.08.2009 108 comments

PREGAME: Talk about leaning on your ace. Justin Verlander simply has to come up big today, and that means rebounding from back-to-back 5 run outings. The Tigers faced Red Sox starter Clay Buchholz once last year and got to him for 10 hits and 5 runs. He has a WHIP of 1.97 and I hope [...]
