Sheff sits
He said his legs were feeling good, but Leyland said he'll give him today and Monday off just in case. If he's feeling well, he'll play Tuesday's split-squad game at home against the Reds.
Leyland also didn't want to take a chance with Miguel Cabrera and his sore leg. However, he keeps saying that Cabrera needs at-bats to get his timing. Thus, he's at DH.
Brandon Inge gets the start at third base in his first game played since the Dodgers lost Andy LaRoche.

They are, but I think it's just on the flagship in Detroit.

I know the Pirates are playing a lot of farmhands but Robertson and Aki were intimidating today. I think Lopez has a good chance to stick if he continues to impress.

I know that I am in the minority here, but I believe in Todd Jones. He gets the job done way more often than not. He deserves our respect and support. That being said his spring has been a little ruff, but this blown save was not completely his fault and seeing eye single, and an error by Clevelen, it is a different game. And according to the radio guys they really thought that Clevelen should of made a play on that other double, and probably should of been an error as well?? Jason what do you think?? Anyway Freddy Guzman was the hero today, and Nate had a heck of a game!
Guillen starting to see the ball and Brandon is having really good at bats as well. Again I will be on the record saying that we need him, and I hope that he catches again soon.

So, looking at Spring stats for the American League- Todd Jones' ERA is #372 out of 383 pitchers. And of those 11 guys he's ahead of, he's pitched at least 2 1/2 times the number of innings as any of them.
