Over 100 pitches … he’s probably done.

Nice 1-2-3 inning from Hansen

Kid is filthy

I think he’ll be our 8th inning guy very soon.

Manny ain't the only bad man.

by tommy.otm on May 8, 2008 9:47 PM EDT up reply actions  

I'd love it

If he could develop into a consistent presence in the pen. If MDC breaks out of his funk, that’d be 4 pretty good guys (Paps, incl.), plus Aardvark for 2 more innings or so if necessary…

by nuthinboutnuthin on May 8, 2008 9:50 PM EDT up reply actions  

And Masterson too.

I look forward to a time when we don’t take the throw-eight-retreads-against-a-wall-and-see-who-sticks approach. I hopeful that it will come very soon. Paps, MDC, Hansen, Masterson, Bard, Oki for our lefty.

Manny ain't the only bad man.

Missed the game

Just got home. College sucks. Just 1 more out to go.

How good was Hanson?

Game over!

A win last night would have been great. But I’m OK with 3 of 4 on the road.

Justin's problem: he's not an ambi-turner

Is he injured? His mechanics seem a little off, and his stats so far have been Tavarezesque.

Hahahaha.

I heard some talk about him being the Cy Young this season. That’s funny now, but it wasn’t completely off before the season started.

He doesn't seem to be dialling it up like last year

and without him firing on all cylinders, the Tigers are in trouble.
