shut up he's pitching really well
He left two pitches right over the heart of the plate to Hamilton and Young...
For some reason ESPN's standings include Playoff % already. The Sox, Twins and Royals are all at 0-0 and each have the following chance to make the playoffs:
Sox 20.4
Twins 6.4
Royals 35.9
How exactly are they figuring this out? haha
Even if the Tigers walk off in the bottom half, a Valverde blown save is fine by me. Perfect last season, and blows his very first chance at a save this year? GOOD.
I think he's overrating the Tigers rotation a bit. Outside of Verlander everyone is pretty inconsistent, but certainly with potential to be good if they fix that problem, I will give him that.
Very excited about Wilkins this season. He's got a nice lefty swing. Should take over for Konerko in '14 if Kenny doesn't trade him for Ichiro or something stupid...

Tigers named Drew Smyly as their fifth starter.
Hmmm a no name pither. So his first start against the Sox? 7 IP 2 H 0 R sound about right?
