Tigers survive live BP
Pretty quiet session today before the rains came. The only bit of excitement came from Todd Jones lost a pitch high and had Gary Sheffield diving to the ground to duck. No harm done.
"I always have a hard time pitching to my teammates," Jones said.
The sessions are usually set up to let veteran pitchers throw to veteran hitters.
Kenny Rogers, Jeremy Bonderman and Nate Robertson were the starters throwing today. Both looked good. Virgil Vasquez continued to make a good impression, spotting his pitches low in the zone. Porcello and Bautista will pitch tomorrow, as will Dontrelle Willis and Matt Mantei.
Shef got a BP brushback, nice... I'm looking forward to see what the Tigers can do this year. On paper, their team is flat out scary...

Does anyone edit the posts to the Tigers' site?

I don't believe this. This is one of the very few MLB sites that even HAS a blog and people complain.
See how many edit errors you find in the stories on the main site. I'll take the word of the professional editor I'm married to when she says Jason is the best writer on MLB.
