Galarraga

It will be interesting to see what happens when Willis comes of the DL.
I can't imagine sending Galarraga down to Toledo.
I imagine he will go to the bullpen until one of the starters stinks it up
one time too many. (Rogers? Willis?)

Frankly, if it were my call, I'd be sending either Rogers or Willis out to a
middle relief role, at least for a while, to see if that helps them work
some things out.

if he is a starter, and I think he is, then he will go back to Toledo
so he can continue to pitch

munkeyfarm only does two things here. insult skippy, and blow hot air. I'm
not saying that he WON'T be going back to Toledo, but, not be in Tigers'
management, I can't say with any authority what's going to happen.

==================================

skippy deserves the insults and scorn in these parts...this is a
newsgroup specific to detroit tigers baseball and a blind man could tell
that he rarely watches any of their games

it came out in the press today that the kid is guaranteed at least a
couple more starts...well, no shit!...i'm still a long way from going as
far as to call him our #1 starter, but it's obvious that he's currently
our BEST option...the thought of a team starved for quality outings
sending down their best option at any given time is preposterous...this
is not a clete thomas situation where it was clear from the start that
he was only holding down a spot until the clear-cut better incumbent
player came back...again, i'm by no means annointing him, and i realize
his second and third trips around the league will likely expose his true
worth...look no further than the '06 version of zack minor that was
undefeated for a key stretch in the middle of the season when we first
brought him up...looking back at how great people thought he was gonna
be at the time is hilarious...plus, we're dealing with a pitcher the
RANGERS of all teams wanted no part of...they've only been looking for
quality pitchers for the last 30+ years

semi-related: we need to put pitching coach chuck hernandez on the
chopping block...bondo, JV and nate have all regressed at too young of
an age...he should be the first person accountable, especially when you
look at the $$$ tied up in these still promising arms

Chuck Hernandez definitely needs to go. I wonder what Bob Cluck is doing
these days.

....which may mean that they don't know a quality pitcher from Shinola.
