Guillen hits for the cycle, Casey homers, Verlander gets win No. 14, Tigers equal their victory total from last season – it was another great night for the Detroiters. Heck, Brent Clevlen even hit two homers. Clevlen, 22, has been considered one of the Tigers better prospects, but has struggled this season in Double A. He was recently called up, and some speculate it was so teams could get a look prior to the trade deadline. With the deadline passed, we’ll see what his role is down the road.
Placido Polanco, a terrific No. 2 hitter, is batting .397-0-8 with 8 runs in his last 15 games. He always puts the ball in play, striking out just 1 time during that span. He’s got his average back above .300, at .301. Much underrated/overlooked, like Guillen.
