Yes, tho Miner did well last night, he and Nate have both shown me at least, that they're not really relievers.

I agree, I don't think he's going anywhere. IF they were going to eat another contract, I think it would Nate's, but I don't see that one coming, either. They have to re-arrange their staff soon, but it will be a Miner or Galarraga moving out, just because of the contract situations of the others. Verlander, Jackson, Porcello, Miner, Galarraga, Robertson, Willis, and Bondo are all really starters… no need for eight of them.

Dontrelle is starting to remind me of Steve Sax – he knows how to throw the ball where he wants it to go, but sometimes it just doesn't go there. His issues seem primarily control related, hopefully Rick Knapp can figure him out long-term. A lot of people are getting on the "Cut Dontrelle" bandwagon, let me tell you a little secret – not gonna happen my friends. There is absolutley no way the Tigers are gonna eat that deal. They'll have him working the concession stands before they cut him.Nice piece JP.
