MLB.com beat writer Jason Beck answered more reader questions in a mailbag column yesterday. He spends the most time on why Andrew Miller was sent to Lakeland and he fields the question nicely. I thought he’d start the season at Erie but his explanation for his Lakeland start is the best I’ve seen.
He also touches on where the Tigers offense is relative to the rest of the league this spring and he also fields a question from a guy from my hometown (Southgate) about whether Ivan Rodriguez retires if the Tigers win it all.
The Pirates are taking it to Justin Verlander. It’s 3-0 in the third inning.
