Low Yield Bond
The Tigers could not ask for more from Jeremy Bonderman. He gets off to a great start, going seven innings, striking out seven and only throwing 102 pitches. He had great control, walking only 2 having 73 pitches result in strikes. Pena, another Oakland import, is 2 for 3 today as well. Those deals may finally be working out for the Tigers. It's 9-2 Detroit in the 8th.
Update: Dmitri Young finishes the day four for four with five RBI and three home runs. He was also plunked. He's not quite perfect, he only has a 3.250 slugging percentage. :-) A great day for the Tigers as they win 11-2.

3 bombs for Dimitri Young. Maybe Detroit will actually be good this year.
great game!!!!
bonderman looked great. dmitri ROOLZ!!!
lima didn't look like the guy who shut out the cardinals in the playoffs - more like the astro freaked out by the juicebox in 2000... he gonna miss LA
I'm rather surprised to see the Tigers playing Bombs Away! today with the Royals. Jeremy Bonderman appears to have matured a LOT from last season. If the Tigers have consistent games like this, they could be a sleeper team in the AL Central. We should wait and see tho, it's only Day #1.
