Good Report on Zumaya
Joel Zumaya's wrist isn't as bad as first reported:
The Tigers might have Joel Zumaya's heat even in the Midwest chill.
Detroit hopes the hard-throwing Zumaya will be ready for Game 3 of the American League Championship Series despite a tender wrist.
The rookie reliever injured his right wrist warming up before Wednesday's Game 2 in Oakland and underwent a magnetic resonance imaging exam after the team arrived back in Detroit on Thursday, a day off for the teams heading into today's Game 3. The test revealed only inflammation.
That's good news for the Tigers and bad news for the Athletics.

Leyland/Buttermaker: "...so Zumaya's okay. Now, we're playing the Athletics today. What does that mean?"
Team: "Bad news for the Athletics!"
