Baseball (Detroit pitching)?

Yes he will, most certainly.  He will get some chances when Jones pitches too much at the least and will sometimes get reliever saves (more than one inning).  If you are asking long term, Rodney won't get saves unless Todd Jones goes back on the DL or has a horrible season (think Keith Foulke from last year).\n\nIf you are talking from a fantasy perspective, I would still hang on to him.  I have him too (but not Todd Jones) but am going to see what happens over the next few weeks.  If Jones does well from the start, drop Rodney.  If he falters, Rodney will take over.  He's the closer of the future.  They only want Jones now because they forked over so much money to have him close.

lol don't cut hamels....he's pitching TODAY.  your pitching is top notch....i don't see anywhere you can improve there.\n\nif you had to improve somewhere, it would be your hitting...howard, dunn, ortiz for power...suzuki, lopez for speed....looks solid to me.  if anything, i'd say you need another SB threat.  corey patterson is someone that might be available who has stolen a ton of bases.\n\nbut dam...the guy in 1st must have one hell of a team if you are in second...

Pitching is the only thing we really need,I hope they made a really good bid on this Matsuzaka!! I heard Andy Pettite Had dinner with Joe Torre Last night,And i read in todays paper,he said if he pitches next yr he wants to come back to the yankees,Roger Clemens if he plays next yr,WILL FINISH HIS CAREER IN BOSTON!! From what i read in todays paper If we don't get Matsuzaka,We'll go after Zito,And i belive Pettite is going to come back.Don't forget we have this Kid Phil Huges,Whos also going to be a GREAT PITCHER! And We'll get something for Sheffield\n4 clubs called about him,But Cashman wants to trade him to an NL Team,,Because he's pissed,and he can hurt us in the long run if we trade him to an AL Team,

Win-Win situation.\n\nThe Yankees get rid of a 38 year old outfielder they had no use for. They also pick up much needed pitching help.\n\nThe Tigers pick up a desperately needed bat. Shef also has a history of performing very well in the playoffs, something the Tigers could have used in the World Series. In return they give up pitching, something they already have a lot of depth in.\n\nBoth teams win, the rest of baseball loses.

Yeah I think it makes it harder for the AL pitchers to get though an inning. Who would you rather face Ortiz or Clemens when it come to batting. I think you might be right cause the AL has been dominate over the years in pitching, Just ask Matt Clement who hasnt caught up to the AL STYLE in 3 years.

I'd take the second one.  Some decent power there with Dawson, Cepeda, and Killebrew, while the first group is more contact hitters for average.  Starting pitching not quite as good as the first group, but still with Marichal, Niekro, and Feller, a decent staff.  No real reliever though.

Easy.  HGH.  Baseballers do it all the time.   Just ask Jason Grimsley.

Stop getting hitting and get some solid pitching. The problem with pitching for the yankees is there is to much pressure. I have seen many a good pitcher crumble because of the pressure there.

WHIP is  walks + hits divided by innings pitched.   where have you seen the FWTW?  Have NO idea what that is.

Zumaya is the next closer for Detroit... period.  Rodney will not get that job back (unless injuries crop up).\n\nLowe is dern good.  He's in a pitcher's park & definitely seems accustomed to the NL hitters now.  \n\nVerdict:  Trade for Lowe!

If you havent picked up Justin Verlander (Detroit) I suggest you do. He's a young and talented fireballer. I have him on my team, and I aint gonna give him up for nothing.

As a member of Red Sox Nation, I am fed up with the middle relief.  The only ones that can be trusted now are Delcarmen and Timlin.  Taveras, Foulke, Seanez, and Riske are just plain bad.  Bring up Hansen.  Trade for some middle relief help from a bad team.  Something NEEDS to be done.

Anything is possible.  Pitching is key.

Honestly, I feel that you have too much starting pitching. You will probably top the Wins catorgory in your league but your ERA  and WHIP will be high and your Saves and K will be low. RPs almost always do better in those catogories.  Consider trading one of your starters for a closer with a high K/IP and a low WHIP and ERA. A high K/IP guy that might be available on the FA market is J J Putz. \nAlso, maybe you could trade some of that SP for some speed like Brian Roberts or Pods. Willy Travaras and Dave Roberts are often availible as a base stealers via FA.\nAnyway, good luck and have fun!

A lot of pitching, No. Enough pitching, yes. The Yankees are a perennial playoff team and I don't see that changing. Their offensive is so explosive that they can win with a sub-par pitching staff.
