Great job O's :clap:

Cabrera was a monster, glad I picked him up on my fantasy team yesterday. :D

Anyone think Jaret Wright will able to lead us to .500?

I only was able to check the game on MLB gameday. But the thing that sticks out to me.

Stat of the day

Not this early. I'll think he'll pick it up a little later in the year with more time with Leo again, and the ability to play in warmer temp's might help him.

I think he'll be a .500 type pitcher this year, but I think he'll probably be pretty crappy early in the year, and pick it up a bit down the stretch.

Don't think Wright will last 5 innings tomorrow. Tigers like to work the count so its going to be a long night for him.

Actually, the Tigers have a pretty free-swinging team. That said, I agree that Wright will struggle to get through 5. I don't think he's as bad as he has shown, but something is wrong with him mechanically or perhaps he is hiding an injury, I'm not sure.

I said that because Cabrera had 70 some pitches through 5 innings. They were working the count on him.

True. But of course he had no walks for the first time in 2 years :D

Still, you're right in that they did make him work at times, especially in the beginning.

Man, WTF happened to the offense.
