Here are the lastest Tigers moves…
- The Tigers put Jeremy Bonderman back on the DL, this is bad for the Tigers and they are missing out on a good arm. Bonderman may take a couple of starts to get back to normal but I think he will. Bonderman’s only concern his his velocity, he should still be able to throw a bit of heat and he needs to. Ryan Perry got recalled for Bonderman, he will do well out of the Tigers bullpen as a seventh or eighth inning guy who nails down the win.
- Marcus Thames came back off the DL for the Tigers. He will be a great upgrade and a nice bat in the middle-end of the line-up, his power will help spark the Tigers and he should still be able to hit 15-20 homers. Thames will give the Tigers power and production. Jeff Larish got sent down for Thames. He will be missed as a great lefty bat with pop, he should be back up soon and he will do good for the Tigers when he is back.
- Don Kelly got called up for the Tigers. Kelly has a solid bat and should get some hits and give some production at the bottom of the line-up. He is also versatile and will do okay at almost any position. He was kind-of fast in 2006 but he has added some weight and should be a bit slower. He is a small power-speed guy which is always a good combo. Clete Thomas got sent down in order for this to happen, his bat will be missed but he should be back soon, he just needs to improve on hitting a good fastball and not swinging for the fences on every fastball he sees.
