Jason Beck, the Tiger’s beat writer for MLB.com, recently published a mailbag column. He answers questions about the trade value of a close to free agency semi-veteran versus a prospect that hasn’t even hit the majors yet. He also touches on why all of the good prospects are at Double A and not Triple A and the one thing I was surprised to see was that he thought Andrew Miller was going to start the season at Lakeland (High A). There’s a lot of good stuff in here.
Where did you expect Miller was going to start?
I thought Lakeland and have read that from others, give him the Verlander treatment. I guess keep him down there until Erie warms up is the thinking.
--I did think Triple A but you’re probably right. No need to rush him.

[…] Brian and Eric have both mentioned Jason Beck’s latest mailbag and each has taken something different away. Me, I didn’t know that the Tigers are trying to make a starter out of Eulogio de la Cruz. […]
