Besides the recent posts by Billfer and Lee regarding Jeremy Bonderman 's struggles, my arch-enemy Samara expressed major concern over Bondo's apparent attempt to grow a mustache. I missed Saturday's game, so didn't see the growth above Bondo's upper lip. But I can see why some might believe it had an adverse affect on his performance that day. I have a bit of a different take on the...

Jeremy Bonderman turned in another disappointing performance in his latest start against the Yankees. It seemed to follow a pattern than Bonderman has established and has led to the worst set of peripherals in his career. Let's go batter by batter through the first inning to see what went wrong: Bonderman against Damon: Things started [...]

What is more confounding for the Tigers about Saturday's game? Is it that their American League-worst problems with right-handed starters arose again? Or is it that their own right-hander, Jeremy Bonderman, had his latest struggle -- one that caused Bobby Seay to warm up in the first and fourth innings, then relieve Bonderman in the fifth inning?

... The end. Let's instead talk about something much more important, namely THE HORRIBLE MUSTACHE THAT JEREMY BONDERMAN IS GROWING. I’ll start off by saying that I hope, SINCERELY HOPE that Bondo will shave it off since he pitched so poorly today. Baseball players are superstitious critters and the return of the Deadly First Inning may be cause enough for Bondo to take action against...

Tigers pitcher Jeremy Bonderman yielded five runs on six hits and four walks and the Tigers couldn't muster enough offense in their 5-2 loss to the Yankees this afternoon at Comerica Park.

PREGAME: Hey, it's Fox Saturday Baseball again, and it's the main game with Ken Rosenthal in town and everything. (I saw Rosenthal at the game last night and that is a tiny dude. So small it seemed like John Keating could dribble him). The Tigers will send out Jeremy Bonderman who still is [...]

Darrell Rasner (1-0, 3.00) vs. Jeremy Bonderman (2-3, 4.17) After essentially punting last night's game by starting Kei Igawa , the Yankees send another recently called-up minor leaguer to the pitching mound against the Tigers this afternoon for a national TV audience. Darrell Rasner , however, probably won't be pitching batting practice like Igawa did. In his first start with the big...

Tigers right-hander Jeremy Bonderman has one quality start, and left-hander Nate Robertson has none. Rookie right-hander Armando Galarraga has three. And the Tigers are a distant last in the American League in quality starts.

Justin Verlander was the one known commodity on the starting staff. (Other than Nate Robertson's mediocrity, and Jeremy Bonderman's early inning struggles�we knew those things too). He was the Tigers ace and he would work things out. Well, after banging my head against the wall for six weeks, I've decided that it hurts. I'm done sticking up for Verlander.

Ask and ye shall receive! Eric Seidman was able to hook us up with a clip of Jeremy Bonderman 's pitch caroming into the lens of the ESPN camera behind home plate last night. Just a bizarre play, and I love Pudge Rodriguez 's sheepish, "uh-oh" walk toward the camera, as if he was going to be the one who had to apologize to old Mrs. Graham for smashing her patio window. (I just, um, pulled...

That was the first RBI (and second) for Mike Lowell this season, as Lowell took a Jeremy Bonderman offering out to left field. Scoring ahead of him was Manny Ramirez, who had doubled to center to lead off the second inning. Lowell's last home run and last RBI came Sept. 29 of last year against Minnesota. That was the longest RBI drought of his career. It's now 2-0 Red Sox. Daisuke Matsuzaka...

PREGAME: It will be Daisuke Matsuzaka taking on Jeremy Bonderman. Matsuzaka shut out Detroit for 6.2 innings despite walking 4 the last time the two teams met. Bonderman is coming off a start where he went 7.2 innings and only allowed 2 first inning runs to the Yankees. The Tigers unveil their new [...]

Daisuke Matsuzaka (4-0, 2.52) vs. Jeremy Bonderman (2-2, 3.86) Usually I try to make these GameThreads all about the pitching match-up, but the big story coming into tonight's opener with the Red Sox is about the new batting order Jim Leyland promised we'd see. "Drastic," remember? Here is the starting lineup for your Detroit Tigers this evening : 1. Curtis Granderson, CF 2. Placido...
