Finally, a successful day going 8-4. Watching the Dodgers batting was worse than pulling teeth, they even had a players-only meeting yesterday held by Brian Jordan before the game. It worked for Odalis Perez and Quantril, but obviously no one else. They probably need some Jobu black magic to wake their bats up, or something. Got any ideas? Gagne looked very good and comfotable in the 9th, Tracy might be on to something here.
I hope if nothing else, these info are helping you make a decision on your own plays.
Early card.........
Indians-115 (Baez/Redman)x1 and Under9.5-115 (listed)x1.5
To say that the Tigers get off to a slow start is an understatement. They have fallen below .500 after 3 games in every season since '91. Lima was quoted as saying "It's like a curse. We start each year 1-7,1-9.....I hate it" The bats have not done much, either. Opening day in Detroit is always a big event (expected sellout), but it hasn't done much for the Tigers in terms of W/L, 2-2, 4 Unders last 4 yrs. Baez and Redman both had good spring starts, evidenced by their numbers......Baez 26IP, 9ER, 21/4 K/BB, Redman 17.2IP, 4ER, 13/4 K/BB. Baez has oustanding stuff, fastball up to 97, curveball in high 80's, with a splitter and change up. Redman more of a control pitcher, but with 4BB in 17.2IP in the spring, I expect him to be right around the plate with his pitches. Temp is going to be around freezing with occasional light snow, that wouldn't give advantage to neither the pitchers nor the batters.
Back with more, GOOD LUCK.
