Mark DeRosa on not using Mason Miller against Venezuela: "Honoring the Padres. Had we taken the lead, he was coming in, but I wasn't going to bring him in to a tie game." (via @BNightengale)

Luisangel Acuña would be the benefactor from any injury to the OF

Venable on Brooks Baldwin, who has not played since March 6: "He’s got some elbow soreness, throwing to some bases the other day. There’s some elbow soreness. Kind of day to day right now, will be evaluated."

From this morning:
Can you imagine a rotation with Tarik Skubal and Valdez as your 1-2 punch? It would bring back memories when Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer were leading their powerful rotation during their glory days.
While it may seem to be far-fetched, the Tigers have to face reality, too. They are not going to fork out $400 million and sign Skubal when he hits free agency in 10 months. They will have a gaping hole in the rotation. So why not be proactive and grab his replacement a year early? This would give them a rotation of Skubal, Valdez, Jack Flaherty, Casey Mize, Reese Olson and Drew Anderson to start 2026.
They would have the team built for a deep October run. Who says no?

soooo Skubal lost his arbitration case?

BREAKING: Star left-hander Framber Valdez and the Detroit Tigers are in agreement on a three-year, $115 million contract, sources tell ESPN. Valdez, 32, gets the highest AAV ever for a left-handed pitcher as well as the highest for a Latin American pitcher. Huge move for Detroit.
