Miner Starting, and my answer for Middle Relief




I'm reading around several Tigers blogs, and it seems like the big question is, how do we upgrade the rotation? I'm on the get rid of Armando bandwagon, and I think the answer is Zach Miner. Think back to a couple years ago what he did as a starter in place of Maroth, and in starts since. He's been as solid as anyone, and a good middle reliever for us this year. I think the time has come to give him the ball and see if he can earn a spot. Which leaves the question of who can be the middle reliever, since Robertson has proven he can't handle it, and Miner is our only legitimate option there.

My friends, I have the answer, and you've already seen him. Lucas French, he did decent in his MLB debut, and he's posting solid numbers as a starter down in AAA... in fact, I'm not entirely against him being the starter, but with a pair of rookies already in the rotation I think we need to go with someone with starting experience. Miner brings that to the table, and I think Armando is running out of time fast, Miner is already here, still having success in his current role. Give him a shot, and bring in French for middle relief, option Armando down, or finally cut the money bleeding out of Robertson.
