In my opinion the Tigers best young starting pitching are prospects are the two kids down at high A ball in florida Luis Marte and Rick Porcello. Both have the power arm high K potential DD likes. I think we are stuck with this slow pitch softball lineup we have until they are ready sometime next season or 2010. That would leave you with still a relatively young staff in which time Bonderman would be 30, Verlander 31 and the kids would be 24 and 22. It doesn't paint a very good picture for the staff the next year, but as the coach said " they are who we thought they were".
I hate to be a nitpicker but I'm not sure where you're getting the ages of Bonderman and Verlander from; in 2010 Verlander will be 27 and Bonderman will be 29.

okay my mistake but that only solidifies the point even more.
i guess that's why DD is sitting in the Owner's box taking dow 7 figures a year, and considered one of the best GMs in baseball, and you Iffy are relegated to bitching about him on this blog site after stealing a respected journalists moniker.
