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

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