Detroit Tigers @ Arizona Diamondbacks


det_medium

Jeremy Bonderman
RHP, 2-4, 4.80
Ari_medium

Dan Haren
RHP, 4-2, 3.04

Baseball-Reference.com preview [opens in new window]

With one hit and no walks in 25 at-bats, Jeremy Bonderman has a career on-base percentage of .040. Welcome to the National League, Mr. Bonderman. You have fun at the plate tonight, because Gary Sheffield will not be around to DH for you in this series. Yes, the joy of interleague play beckons, bringing with it fierce local rivalries like the Yankees-Mets, Dodgers-Angels and...Tiger-Diamondbacks. After all, there's only a couple of thousand miles between America's fifth- and eleventh-largest cities and we have so much in common, after all. One is a crime-ridden, polluted, failed exercise in urban planning. And the other is Detroit.

The Tigers have been spectacularly underwhelming this year, failing to achieve the success expected. This is mostly because of a pitching staff which has a collective ERA+ of 81: three of their regular starters, Rogers, Verlander and Robertson have ERAs north of six, though we only see the last-named this series. Big off-season acquisitions Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis have both disappointed, more or less: the former is on pace to drive in less than 90 runs, compared to the 110+ of the past four seasons, and Willis pitched only five innings before hitting the DL.

That said, the offense still has the potential to be dangerous, and I'd be happy to settle for two out of three, with tonight certainly being one of those, behind Dan Haren. The Rockies series went a good way to righting our ship, which was looking wobbly against the Cubs. Hopefully, we'll do better against this batch of opponents from outside the division.

calling out bondy

Seriously, replacing sheff in the lineup with bondy may be a blessing in disguise for the Tiges, at least we might be able to ask him to bunt and move a runner along for the first time in about 2 weeks…

very funny
Tiger-Diamondbacks. After all, there’s only a couple of thousand miles between America’s fifth- and eleventh-largest cities and we have so much in common, after all. One is a crime-ridden, polluted, failed exercise in urban planning. And the other is Detroit.

Some good ol’ fashioned humor there Jim… thanks for the laugh!

Today’s lineup:

C. Young cf .256
S. Drew ss .295
O. Hudson 2b .297
C. Jackson 1b .331
J. Upton rf .322
C. Snyder c .284
E. Byrnes lf .214
A. Ojeda 3b .370
D. Haren p .111

Wolf is still in the 2 hole and Augie gets the start at 3b against the RHP Bonderman.

Byrnes back in, at #7. Something’s gotta get that guy back in the groove again…

Those other guys:

C. Granderson cf .234
P. Polanco 2b .273
G. Sheffield lf .196
M. Ordonez rf .310
M. Cabrera 1b .264
C. Guillen 3b .291
E. Renteria ss .260
I. Rodriguez c .271
J. Bonderman p .000

It could be interesting to watch Bonderman perform in the batters box.

by foulpole on May 16, 2008 9:05 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Ya know, with the way Bonderman has been pitching, Detroit might be better off having a DH pitch and hit than Bonderman pitch and hit.

Never underestimate the ego of a major league hitter. Thought process goes something like this: “Sure he threw out everyone else that tested him but I am a God and he is 20.” And for the smart ones, at least they aren’t in scoring position.

Gracie gets charged with run

Mark Grace jinxed it by doing his spiel on AL aversion to small ball. He said something about baserunners just sitting back and waiting for the HR. Twenty seconds later the HR arrived.

Well...

If somebody’s gotta do it - and I’d greatly prefer if no one did it - it might as well be Cabrera, since I’ve got him.

Still not happy about the 3-0 hole though.

Great to see him break out – I take credit, having removed the Byrnes watch from the site. But it should really have been a two-run shot. Upton is such an infuriating player: he can do something brilliant, like that throw to get the runner at second, and then do something utterly lame and incompetent, looking utterly lost on the base-paths.

2 on, nobody out.

We can do this…. Detroit’s bullpen isn’t extremely effective.

Bonderman leaves.

Max Scherzer is all out of bubblegum.

hey Byrnes!

what about a 2-hit night?

- The Question is: Who cares!?

FWIW...

That might be the first +1 you’ve ever given me.

I’m touched…

Whoa... whoa.... whoa...

Don’t jinx it. I’m pretty sure that even I could get a 2 hit game vs. Detroit’s bullpen.

Middle ground, guys

It’s a positive, just not that much of a positive.

Damn damn damn

Snyder nailed at third – still have two runners on with one out

Yeah

that was unfortunate, but still.

Excellent evidence

For why bunting is a stupid idea.

I hate small ball...

Whenever you hear someone proclaiming the virtues of the bunt, they always sound as if it’s a sure thing. It isn’t.

Ick.

Bunt attempt goes about three feet and Snyder’s out at third. Silver lining: speed on the bases is a little better, I guess?

Definitely
