I'll evaluate him by the 4th, he usually gets rocked early, then settles in.    He'd better keep it close today though, cuz Bondy can be tough.

Check nuts and step up Freddy. 

We'll probably be able to evaluate him by the first time Shelton comes to the plate.

Road day game, Scorpion will come correct this afternoon..... no doubt in my mind. I say 7 1/3, 6K's, 3 ER, W.

 

Bonderman shows mercy.

 

Tigers lineup:

 

Granderson, CF

Polanco, 2b

Rodriguez, C

Ordonez, RF

Young, DH

Shelton, 1B

Guillen, SS

Monroe, LF

Inge, 3b

Pods is working the count atleast, even if he can't make contact.

 

Didn't do him much good.

Pods fouls out to Inge.

Pods gets the count to 3-0, takes a strike then pops out to Inge.

 

He needs to get more line drive swings.

11 pitches to 2 batters for Bonderman.

Iguchi K's.

step out and break his rhythm

Wow, Bonderman looking good. Our top 3 hitters looking real bad.

Thome K's on 3 pitches.

Offense is starting out hot today for the sox. That was quick.

 

Hopefully Garcia is throwing his good stuff today.

Bonderman is gonna be next to impossible to beat today.

Bonderman is gonna be next to impossible to beat today.

 

 

Its called elevating his pitch count, fouling off pitches, and getting into the tiger bullpen.

 

That should be the game plan today.

Garcia gets ahead 0-2, and then just like the top of the first the leadoff hitter pops out to 3rd.

Granderson pops out to Crede.

 

It also seems that Gene Lamont is the Tigers' third base coach. So that's what happened to him.

pitch speed on Freddy yet??

Freddy off to a good start with the first 2 batters.

Polonco hits a deep fly out to Mack.

Freddy looking a lot better thus far...hope he keeps it going.

Freddy off to a good start with the first 2 batters.

No radar gun on CSN.

Granderson pops out to Crede.

 

It also seems that Gene Lamont is the Tigers' third base coach.  So that's what happened to him.

Lamont was not a bad manager. Replacing him with Bevington was foolish.

Pods with as many errors as hits.

Hung one to I-Rod and Pods bobbles the should be single in left. ICK!

Rodriguez singles to Pods, advances to 2nd when Pods drops the ball.

 

Ordonez up.
