What is the rule on dead players?
Realistically, even for single A ball, 4 hits and two walks in 7+ innins is pretty solid. Considering the hits/walks had to be lumped together to make 4 runs he might be puttin gtogether some solid innings. I have a feeling that if he can get his touch and his confidence back, he could still be a good major league pitcher. I haven't given up on him..........yet.
I haven't given up on him either. I just don't think he'll be worth his contract.
If he can give us 12 wins, 4.50 ERA, and 190 innings for each of the last 2 years of his deal, I'll be very pleased.

Leyland says Dontrelle and Freddy Garcia will both get starts for the Tigers next week.
This looks like a real bust, but it won't be a huge deal. Every team has a few bad contracts they just dust under the rug(like the Yankees).
Starting tonight for the Reds.
