The Tigers get headaches:

The Tigers split their four-game weekend series in Baltimore, but Saturday night's 11-10, 10-inning loss could stick with them. As John Lowe pointed out in the Detroit Free Press, Saturday's game was the second this year in which the Tigers lost after taking a 6-0 lead in the first inning.

"11-10, that's exactly what a lot of people thought might happen to that team," a rival executive said Sunday. "This is what the doubters thought would happen."

It didn't help that the starting pitcher Saturday was Nate Robertson. With Jeremy Bonderman out for the year and Dontrelle Willis likely not returning, either, the Tigers will need Robertson to become a winner.

"Look, he is what he is, a fifth starter," said one scout who doubts Robertson can do it. "And fifth starters aren't that good."
