Cleveland Indians at Detroit Tigers, Jul 10, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
Cliff Lee (4-8, 3.45) vs. 
Edwin Jackson (6-4, 2.59), 7:05 p.m. EST
After taking two out of three from the AL Central's fourth-place team, the Tigers try to end the unofficial first half of the season with a strong showing against the fifth-place Indians.
Cliff Lee hasn't won in his past four starts for the Tribe. His last two, in particular, didn't look so good, as Lee allowed 10 runs, 19 hits, and five walks in nine total innings. Lee has lost both of his starts against the Tigers this season, but he's given up only four runs in 15 innings. In nine career starts at Comerica Park, he has a 3-2 record and 3.42 ERA.
Since his last start on Saturday, Edwin Jackson was named to the All-Star team for the first time. Inexplicably, he's winless in his past five starts despite giving up three or fewer runs in each of those outings. Actually, it's not hard to understand at all, considering the poor run support Jackson continues to receive from his lineup. Despite striking out a season-high nine batters in six innings against the Twins, he took a no-decision when the bullpen couldn't hold a one-run lead (nor could the Tigers' offense provide an insurance run).
Jackson has faced the Indians one other time this season, shutting them out over seven innings in a 4-0 win at Cleveland. At home this season, he has a 3-1 record and 2.94 ERA in seven starts.
Let's Go Tribe has your SB Nation opposing view for this weekend's series.

Hopefully with the extra time off Porcello can come out fresh in the second half and take the ROY (assuming that they already have a special, better award set aside for Weiters)

He stepped off a little quickly, touching the bag first and then catching the ball. Hard to tell in real time and I haven’t seen a replay.

The ear is fun, cuz sometimes it feels like you're bleeding inside it. Yikes.
I wish I played more sports as a kid. The worst that happened to me was at drumline practice, our section leader thought it would be funny to chuck a drum stick towards the practice area, where it promptly rebounded off my snare and into my mouth. Which started to bleed profusely immediately. Funnn times.

All right, now.
Do not let Rodney pitch next inning.

concur
No longer a save situation, therefore Rodneycoaster = suckage city.

Would you rather
have Thames hit a two run homer making this a non-save situation or go scoreless in the eigth making this a save situation for Rodney (which seems to be the only situation he pitches well in).

Choice C:
A steady closer.
Goodness knows we need one after Jones and Rondey. Think of the fans Tigers!
