Just a few links for you today as it seems to be a slow journalistic day for the Tigers.
Earlier this afternoon, Dontrelle Willis took the mount against the Reds and struggled with his control. The Tigers did defeat the Reds 5-4 in this split squad contest backed by both Carlos Guillen and Pudge Rodriguez's fourth homers of the spring. Willis pitch 2.1 innings, giving up two hits and four walks giving up one run. Jason Grilli pitched Willis out of a jam.
In the second split game this afternoon, the Tigers defeated Cleveland 4-2 in 10 innings. Young guns Denny Bautista and Rick Porcello both pitched two scoreless innings for Detroit. First baseman Jeff Larish knocked in three of the Tigers four runs in the ball game.
Justin Verlander continued his spring dominance, while Miguel Cabrera and Pudge both were hot at the plate in a 4-3 win over the Nationals yesterday.
The Free Press shines a light on Edgar Renteria and how Braves manager Bobby Cox hated trading him away. This article really makes Renteria sound like a class act and helluva ball player.
More on Miggy's ball game yesterday and how his quad injury didn't affect him.
And another link to a Cabrera article from the Detroit News. I can't get enough of 'em.
Danny Knobler gives his insight on Todd Jones and Fernando Rodney.
Video of the Day: I hope we do this to the Yankees every year:
