PrintNew York Yankees at Detroit Tigers, May 10, 2010 7:05 PM EDT
A peeved Andy Pettitte will watch his turn in the rotation go to long-man/spot starter/groundball specialist Sergio Mitre in the first of a four-game series in Detroit.
Vs.
Mitre's pitch limit will be around 75. He's never started against Detroit and only two current Tigers have ever faced him...
This is Willis' second career start against the Bombers. His first came in 2006...
Spot-starter Brad Thomas will go instead of Willis, who is feeling 'under the weather'... The Aussie has faced just one current Yankee, Randy Winn...

Thames at DH instead of in left...
That’ll be the play of the game according to fangraphs, swings the odds 89% in favor of the Yankees
The official Brad Thomas scouting report from Bless You Boys
He’s a “wanker” and the Tigers managed to win the last game where Thomas started and pitched 3 innings of four-run ball.
he is most definitely a wanker
Just keep winning

Interesting matchups this week...
Jazy v. Porcello is intriguing, neither of them has pitched up to his ability this year. CC v. Verlander is going to be sick
I kind of feel the same way
I also feel like, for all the crap he gets, he isn’t THIS bad, and he’s got to pitch better eventually.

A lot of fans went into the season hating the guy because of 04
Which I find ridiculous because without his first half in 04, who knows if Yanks even get that far.
yeah...
I could understand that attitude, MAYBE if it had been all Sox since 2004, like if we had picked him up after the ’08 season. But after last year that series should be far in our rear-view mirrors
I was pretty disappointed they got rid of him then, actually.
I don’t know how long you wait until he turns it around, though.
Usqueadbaugham! Anam muck an dhoul ! Did ye drink me doornail?
I was skeptical because of his 2004
And because of his lack of success in the AL. And his start this year hasn’t helped. But even at his worst, he’s not a 9 ERA guy, so he will definitely get better.
by long time listener on May 10, 2010 7:11 PM EDT up reply actions
he was league-average two of the three years
He’s only had one above-average year in the AL. If he winds up at league-average this year, I’ll take it.

Thomas in, Mitre up in the bottom half

wow I guess he actualy IS sick

I feel like we’re spending umpire capital by leaving the box on ball 4s before they are actually called. It happened a lot last night too.
It's nice to see Tex above the Mendoza line, incidentally.

Not like we are trying to get Halladay out of the game
Id rather knock him out of the game, then run his count up
That’s true enough. A long trip through the bullpen tonight, though, will pay dividends through the rest of the series.

Yeah I don't put a lot of stock in Spring Training competitions
managers see what they want to see.

Swish takes more walks
and is definitely a better, younger, fielder
Damon’s only advantage over Swish is foot speed.
I'm Lord Duggan and I approve this message.
eh check him compared to Swish
I’m not sure, haven’t looked at them side by side so far
101 mph
my god, thats some heat.
Still, that pitch was down the pipe. Thames needs to drive that at least to the OF
OK
They played some sloppy D in the first, and he was a little wild at times. But he was mostly good.
