Verlander has been pitching GREAT this year.. granted many of you are thinking " what is tis guy talking about his ERA is OVER 6 runs a game....True true ... BUT in all of his 3 starts he hasnt allowed a run for the 1st 4 innings BUT he is running into problems with pitch count... His arm starts wearing around the 5th inning bc the guy is at that 100 mark.... key to this game is CLevland is NOT A PATIENT HITTING TEAM.. they swing and swing quick and VERLANDER throws strikes WHIP = 1.19,, he has only allowed 14 hits in 19.1 innigs... All of the runs and hits dayum near come in the later innings White sox scoring 6 runs in the 8th again scoring 3 and 2 runs in the 5th and 6th and kansas the same......Verlander will come out and get after it quick and pitch count wont be a problem against these free swinging Indians that cant HIT THE BALL...
ON The other side we have CARMONA whose ERA is awesome but he really has been shitty.... ALLOWING 17 WALKS IN 16 INNINGS his stuff is out of control and still hasnt recovered from last year's melt down... he doesnt have his A stuff...... only striking out 8 as well.. Carmona's bad play will catch up to him tonight as the tigers wil kill him... this game is pretty much a duplicate of the PHillies and Astros
CLeveland Bats are dead, Verlander goes right after the hitters ... a right hander for the Tigers held the Indians to 3 hits last night... and an even better right hander is coming out tonight... Indians only hitting .238 against righties
