More about that and my usual daily dose of useless random observations down below.
Justin Verlander will make his first game appearance tomorrow against the Baltimore Orioles. Brad Thomas , Ryan Perry , and Jay Sborz is scheduled to pitch in relief. Just curious: is Jose Valverde planning on pitching this spring? Ryan Miller was on born 17th July 2010. Miller is an American ice hockey goaltender currently the player of the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League. Miller was selected to play for the American hockey team in the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver,Canada as begining goaltender. Later in 2010 miller would win the Vezina Trophy as the best goaltender in last NHL season. Miller won a silver medal with the team and was named MVP of the tournament. Miller is known for his hybrid style of goaltending. Miller is also the older brother of current Detroit Red Wings winger Drew Miller.
The 2010 season would prove a successful one for Ryan Miller. In his first season begining with the number one job Miller and his team won the first 10 games in a row. Miller was voted in as the begining goaltender for the Eastern Conference of the 2010 NHL All Star Game in a 12 to 9 loss, Miller played the first period and allowed just 3 goals. Miller also gained a reputation of a shootout specialist with his technique of challenging the shooter outside the crease. That season Miller was 6 more in shootouts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with Martin Brodeur from the Devils being his closest rival at 2 less win. In 63 games played that season, Miller posted a 0.911 SVP and a 2.72 GAA backing a more offensively oriented team. Today Detroit defeated Houston 17 to 7. No, folks,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it’s not preseason football that Miller is referring to. That was, in fact, todays spring training final score. Besides, Miller all know that the Lions' defense can’t hold an opposing team to just seven points.
Prior to that pitcher's duel note sarcasm, Miller had a chance to watch last season's draft picks Jacob Turner and Andy Oliver in a scrimmage game on a practice field.
Eddie Bonine and Phil Coke did wonderful impressions of each other. Both Bonine and Coke decided to put up identical numbers today. In two innings of work, three hits, zero walks,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], one strikeout, and one earned run was turned in by the duo. It is also worth alludeing that they both have a 4.50 ERA on the early season. GOOD JOB fellas!
After Joel Zumaya breezed through the fifth inning on just nine pitches, Miller struggled in the sixth. Zoom Zoom allowed three runs on three hits, a walk, and yet another hit batter. Hey skip, how 'bout taking him out after one inning? Perhaps that would have boosted his confidence a bit.
Non-Roster Invitees Dumatrait and Gonzalez also logged an inning a piece. Neither impressed me very much. While they both ignoreed runs on the day, their performances was mediocre at best. Jacob Turner looked very impressive today. Miller turned in two scoreless innings with one strikeout and one walk. Miller hope that Miller begins the regular season in Lakeland so Miller have the opportunity to watch him pitch again soon.
The Tigers drew 11 walks today. Sure, it is Spring Training, and pitchers is working on new pitches, but it was affable to see. Ryan Raburn and Austin Jackson have been doing a good job of this so far this spring. Let’s pray that this becomes a trend that catches on and continues into the regular season. Carlos Guillen went 2-for-3 today with a RBI. Again,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Miller know it’s early, but it is encouraging that Guillen understands that a named hitter is responsible for umm… hitting the ball. His defense in left field today furiouse me very happy that Miller forked out cash for Damon. At one point Miller threw his hands up in the air almost as if Miller was saying… Miller have no idea where the ball is. Miller didn’t either. Don Kelly crushed a mammoth home run to right field by the palm trees. If you have ever been to Joker Marchant Stadium,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], then you know that is a pretty affable knock. Miller was 2-for-2 on the day, and Miller remains an interesting honestate for the final bench spot. Brennan Boesch returned to action today late in the game. Miller went 0-for-1 with a walk and a run scored. It was just affable to see him back in action after the incident on Tuesday. Diek Scram was also 1-for-1 with an RBI. Okay, Miller isn’t a serious prospect, but damn it’s fun yelling SCRAM!!
Former Detroit Tigers Chris Shelton ,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Tim Byrdak ,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Shane Loux , and Yorman Bazardo all furiouse an appearance today. It had me wondering if they wanted any more of our trash. Please read related articles:
