Title: MLB - Kazmir vs Verlander
Post by: Sunstroke on June 12, 2006, 03:34:18 pm

If you like watching good young pitchers go at it, find a good seat for the D-Rays and Tigers matchup tonight. Scott Kazmir battles Justin Verlander in what "could" be as epic as the Pedro-Webb pitching gem we had just a few weeks ago.

Verlander is at home and has a better overall squad supporting him. I'm thinking Tigers win 1-0, on a 9th inning error by Julio Lugo or Joey Gathright. Over-under on total number of hits combined...seven.

I got Tampa 4-3. Thanks for the heads up. This should be a good one.

Kazmir gets rattled when runners get on.  I think that Tampa doesn't have the sticks that Detroit does right now.  Kaz is the better arm, Ver gets the "w" tonight.

Kazmir is a chump.  Look for Verlander to take this one easily.  Kazmir can only hope he can some day be as strong as Justin Verlander.

The young pitcher match-ups I really want to see in the AL right now all revolve around my three favorite AL rookie starters:

Justin Verlander vs Francisco Liriano
Jered Weaver vs Francisco Liriano
Justin Verlander vs Jered Weaver

Give me any of those and I'm not leaving my comfy chair until it's over.  ;D

Kazmir has to get his pitch count down. I hope he wasn't listening to Al Leiter when they were both on the Mets.
