Maybe they should start off with Jones, then put Bonderman in for the 2nd-9th innings!

Believe me, I already thought about this. Anyway, a 1-2-3 1st inning for Bondo. Maybe this is the turnaround point on his season (whatever is left in it).

More of the same from Tigs. After leaving runners at the corners in the 1st they only get 1 run out of bases loaded one out situation. Now Tigers have 1 run on 5 hits.

The offense finally wakes up. 5-1 Tigers.

Tigers have claimed lefty Clay Rapada off waivers (from Cubs), which completes an earlier trade.
The transaction involving Rapada satisfies the Aug. 23 trade in which Chicago obtained outfielder Craig Monroe and cash considerations in exchange for a player to be named.

Rapada, 26, was 7-2 with 17 saves and a 3.58 ERA in 55 relief appearances for (AAA) Iowa.

Tigers finally win a game on the strength of their top 4. The bottom of the lineup didn't show up for the game. But a win is a win and now maybe they can string a few of them together. Otherwise, September is going to be meaningless.

Bondo can preform in Toledo if he doesn't do it here. Let's pretend his name is Flip Saunders and I'll bet he's moved tomorrow.

Why rip on Bondo tonight? He finally had a good game.

Agree. Bondy finally turned in a good performance. If anything send Andrew Miller back to Toledo,try Zach Miner as the 5th starter. Also try Guillen at third and send Inge to the bull pen to play catch with the relievers. Also force Pudge to take the first two pitches if he ever comes up with the bases loaded.

Miller is already at Lakeland. Vasquez has been called up to start.
