July 2nd kicks off the feeding frenzy for international players. With the Tigers not spendng as much in draft, it’ll be interesting to see if they make more of a splash this go-round.

Justin Verlander’s average fastball has been over 94mph for June. Good enough for 6th fastest in the bigs. So that’s good.

Big League Stew, a blog by Kevin Kaduk deserves a spot in your daily reads due to the nice blend of information and entertainment. He’s been doing a review of stadiums and he covers Comerica, with some contributions from me.

Another fielding stat. Renteria doesn’t show up on the top or bottom lists, leaving him somewhere in the middle.

Brandon Inge and Pudge Rodriguez rank as the two worst players in terms of win probability added over the last 3 years. To the tune of 9 losses each.

I 2nd guessed the timing of the DL stint. What I didn’t know at the time is that Inge aggravated the injury pillow wrangling. That’s one thing about being on the road, hotel pillows are a lot less aggressive.

If Inge has such a low win probability, and he goes to the DL, does that mean our chances to win just went up?
Considering Edgar Renteria is still a member of the team, no. His WpA is -103,469 to the tenth power.
