After a busy weekend, I'm back to give you some links to the Tigers happenings over the past few days. Score-wise, it was a rough weekend for Detroit.
This afternoon, Kenny Rogers was solid but the Tigers fell to the Reds 5-3. Miguel Cabrera had two RBIs and two walks, but the rest of the Detroit offense was pretty stagnant today.
Yesterday, Dontrelle Willis was on the hill and had one rough inning, giving up three runs in a 7-2 loss to Tampa Bay. Willis at one point appeared to be injured after shaking his arm, but apparently he was just trying to get loose. Quite the scare for Jim Leyland, though.
In the Tigers other split squad game on Sunday, they fell to the Mets 7-4. Yorman Bazardo got the start and gave up one run in each of the first three innings. Carlos Guillen showed some more spring power with a two run home run in the sixth.
MLB.com covers Curtis Granderson and his role as a leader for the Tigers on and off the field. I need to buy a Granderson jersey soon.
The Tigers home site also has a good interview with Leyland. The Skip seems so consistent in everything he does.
SI.com says that Brandon Inge is now unlikely to get traded. That's fine with me. Injuries happen, and he will be able to fill so many different holes over a long season. And the Free Press wonders if Inge staying is good for Ryan Raburn.
Here's more on Willis' arm scare from the Free Press. A big sigh of relief here.
Roar of the Tigers takes a look at our bullpen and the one spot left open. Which reminds me, my bullpen preview will be coming soon, once things finally get resolved by Leyland.
Rob Parker of the Detroit News covers Todd Jones, or as I like to call him, the roller coaster ride.
