Chicago White Sox at Detroit Tigers, Jul 24, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
Bartolo Colon (3-6, 4.23) vs. 
Eddie Bonine (0-0, 9.00), 7:05 p.m. EST
After getting a big, much needed victory in Game 1 of today's double-header, the Tigers can put a little breathing room between themselves and the White Sox with a win in the nightcap.
Bartolo Colon makes his first start for the White Sox since June 7, after going on the disabled list for inflamation in his left knee. In that last start, he served up four homers (eight hits total) in five innings to the Indians. Colon has faced the Tigers 21 times in his career, compiling an 8-9 record and 5.28 ERA. At Comerica Park, he's 4-4 with a 6.23 ERA.
Eddie Bonine gets the call up from Triple-A to make a spot start for today's double-header. This season with the Mud Hens, he's posted a 2-4 record and 4.67 ERA in 12 starts. Bonine began the year with the Tigers, making the team out of Spring Training, but didn't pitch that well in a long relief role. In four appearances, he allowed eight runs and 16 hits in eight innings, and was eventually sent back down to Toledo when Joel Zumaya was activated.
Bonine faced the White Sox in one game earlier this season. Pitching in relief of Zach Miner, he gave up two runs and five hits (one of them a home run by Carlos Quentin) in 2.2 innings. But if Bonine doesn't have it, the Tigers have a fully rested bullpen ready to go after Justin Verlander pitched a complete game this afternoon.
Three changes in the lineup for Game 2. Marcus Thames starts in left field, Dusty Ryan gets the nod at catcher, and Ramon Santiago plays at shortstop. Carlos Guillen is once again the designated hitter, after going 1-for-4 this afternoon in his first game back.

Leyland should just give the bullpen the entire day off
How ’bout it Eddie Bonine? JV did it, are you gonna let him show you up like that, and fail to go the distance?

Over/under the number of games before Magglio as a platoon partner is completely gone is set at 9.5.

He becomes a permanent bench resident?
by rook34 on Jul 24, 2009 6:27 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions 0 recs
Nah, just that Leyland will abandon the splitting playing time thing at some point. I, unfortunately, think that’ll mean Magglio over Clete more often than not (like 3 out of every 5 games).

I went to my first game earlier today.
I discovered great, free parking on Alfred street off Woodward. Highly recommended. A man right behind me was screaming “Strike him out, Verlander!” every single batter and “Hit a home run!” for every Tiger. It reaffirmed my belief that baseball is, for the most part, better watched on tv.

I came up to the gate behind the scoreboard in left. guy told me i had to button my jersey because the shirt wasnt allowed in. I did so without much problem, walked about a quarter of the way around the stadium and unbuttoned it because it was a stupid rule and i have never had a problem wearing it before. Guys were following me, stopped me immediately, escorted me out and caused a scene about it. I was with my sister and girlfriend, very embarrassing.

An actual, honest-to-gosh letter on real paper. No one does that anymore, so it carries a lot of weight.
Point out that you could understand if there has previously been a policy against it, but you had worn the shirt several times and had never had an issue before. Tell them it is disappointing for a long-time season ticket holder to be treated in such a seemingly arbitrary and certainly inconsiderate fashion.
“Disappointing” is always a good word to use, because it makes people feel bad.

it's pretty much bad everywhere
A couple of my sister’s friends were both laid off (the wife now has a new job, but at a lower pay rate than before) but here husband is still unemployed, and they are both accomplished engineers and live around Chicago (which is a little better than some other areas). This country has been hemmhoraging employment. :(

That was hilarious.

The landlady finally settled it for them when she told them she thought they were Jewish.
(That and the one when they made Thanksgiving dinner.)

I think they were hoping for near-immediate help from a couple of those guys, such as with Ryan Perry. But yeah, I’d agree, draft starters and move them to relief later on.
