Jeremy Bonderman (SP) DET - Cold
August 10, 2007
News: Bonderman was hit up for 7 earned runs over 6 innings against the Devil Rays. The Tigers went on to lose 8-2, and Bondo took the loss.
Views: Any Detroit fan will tell you that Bonderman is a true head case. He is his own worst enemy, and seems to be fighting himself more then anything. He looks uneasy on the mound despite his stuff looking fine. He is 0-4 in his last 5 starts, giving up 3,5,10,6, and 7 ER's respectively over this slump. Bonderman will probably miss starting against Oakland, making his next start against the Cleveland. Follow that up with potential back to back starts against the Yankees, and the outlook is not good for Jeremy. I'd recommend shopping him around, but his value is probably the lowest its been for 2-3 years. Now may be a time to stash him on his bench and hope he gets back on track.
