I can’t think of any Tiger pitcher in a long time who’s had the expectations that Jeremy Bonderman has and he kicks off his spring season today. It’s hard to believe just four years ago in the Spring of 2003 he was beginning his run to make the team as a 20 year old. Now whenever someone talks about Bonderman, they sometime use Cy Young award in the same sentence.
Also getting some time on the mound will be Wil Ledezma, Joey Eischen, Tim Byrdak and Yorman Bazardo. I’m particularly interested in seeing how Bazardo does this spring. Roy Oswalt will get the start for the Astros so you’ll have both team’s aces going. The game is at 1:05 and if you have MLBaudio, you can pick the game up because the Astros are broadcasting the game on their network. I’ll probably get to tune in for the beginning of the game. There’s also a night game (which I’ll probably also miss) between the Yankees and the Twins.
