well it seems that we need some bullpen help lately and martinez is doing a pretty solid job at carolina and we all know what heis capable of. i say send down andino and bring martinez up.

 

And we also need to hope that matt lindstrom gets throught this tough time hes having.

 

is it just me or do other people here have absolutely no faith in logan kensing??

Instead of calling up Martinez...call up Eulogio!

De La Cruz was projected as the Tigers future closer, to begin with.

 

De La Cruz has also earned a spot on the roster, as he continues to pitch very well...in AAA (a hitters' league, at that).

I agree, call up Eulogio (NOT FRANKIE) De La Cruz if anybody.

Let's re-Sign Joe Strong, and give him the closers spot LOL, he'd prob even do a better job then gregg at this point.

Nah dude lets bring back Dennis Springer and have him throw knuckleballs in the 9th. Hitters accustomed to the usual high heat in that circumstance will be completely hopeless when they see that thing dancing all around.

 

I would prefer to have Carlos Martinez finish the year at AA though. Before he got called up in 06 he had only a handful of innings above A+. His stuff is awesome but a little seasoning down there can only help. Next year he should definitely get a shot to land a role in the pen. Our bullpen has been a bit shaky lately and Lindstrom has me concerned with his control but we should give it a bit more time. No one has gotten Jorge Julio bad just yet.

i think Lindstrom's woes this year are Freddy fault, he's not being used frequently enough to stay sharp.

For one night, against Atlanta, Joe Strong was King Kong...it was a truly beautiful and miraculous thing. His father cried. His manager cried. Preston Wilson cried.

 

I did too. I remember it like it was yesterday.

most true fans do, that's why we remember him.

It may be that Cruz winds up in the pen (yeah, when we traded for him he was said to be a future closer) but one would think after all the time spent stretching him out to be a starting pitcher and with success that he'd be wasted pitching an inning every three days out of the pen.

Maybe he's not sharp enough to be used frequently. :lol

 

seriously though, if he needs work and he has options, send him down like they did to Tank and bring up DelaCruz
