For long reliever, it says Andy Wilk and his name is Adam.

Thanks for catching that!

With Wells hot, is there any chance that the Tigers option Dirks and bring up Danny Worth to start at second? Raburn is not going to last much longer there, and Santiago won't either.

It's a possibility and not a bad idea. Heard that Carlos Guillen is going to start a rehab assignment, however, so they might try to hold off until he returns.

The Tigers are not batting Cabrera third. The lineup begins as Jackson-Boesch-Ordonez-Cabrera-Martinez.

What are the plans with Duane Below in the short-term? All in all, his start yesterday was decent. Albeit v Oakland

I think he earned another start. There really isn't any reason to go with anyone else until he struggles. Then they can try Wilk or Oliver again. With that said, I have a feeling they'll be going after a starting pitcher before the trade deadline.

The Tigers appear to have switched Penny and Scherzer in the rotation.

Whats with the Doug Fister pending hes in the starting rotation?

Jason - MLBDepthCharts.com said... August 4, 2011 at 10:15 AM  

Forgot to move him over after they cleared a spot for him. Thanks for the heads-up!

Fister pitched after Scherzer and before Penny.

Rotation is now Verlander-Scherzer-Fister-Penny-Porcello

Chance Ruffin is still on the Tiger's 40-man roster on the team's official site. Did he really go to Seattle?

I definitely jumped the gun. I'll move him back if it's not announced today that he's the PTBNL.
