okay sounds good I will look to follow your guy's lead as well as hopefully adding some legit insight myself.

Denny Bautista in for the Tigers...good stuff, but has struggled in the past in the majors.

Strike zone pretty tight at the moment.

Single to left field to start the inning. Uh Oh.

 

[MattMillen+]

is that the same one that used to play for the Royals?

 

[JakeT.]

Bautista has good stuff and should work out of this inning. I feel confident.

Same guy. Still young. I think he does good this year.

 

[MattMillen+]

he was nasty coming up... hope he finds some control

Fly out to warning track. Runner stays on first. One down.

Gotay batting. Bautista not exactly throwing strikes. WALKED.

First and second, one out.

Michael Abreu coming up. Homered yesterday in game vs UM.

2-1 count, still no control. Need a ground ball. Foul ball. 2-2 count.

 

[JakeT.]

Bautista always has had issues with walks but I think his stuff will have a little more control this year. His WHIP won't be anything special but his ERA should be much better than previous years.

Ground ball, double play! Tigers win!

 

[JakeT.]

Ground ball, double play! Tigers win!

Congrats Mike. Way to start the season in style! :toast:

Absolutely. I'm on the Rockies as well, so lets root this one in. Watching on MLB.TV, but getting a choppy picture/feed because my internet is sucking.
