The Gambler returns

Kenny Rogers is slated to pitch Friday for the Tigers after two rehab starts in the minors. Hopefully, he is ready and not rushing. Detroit is still winning games, thanks to its mind-boggling offense, so the team could afford to be cautious.

But this comment from Jim Leyland is telling:

"Anytime you get some guy back with the quality of a Kenny Rogers, obviously you're tickled to death, because it solidifies your rotation more and you're not grasping for straws like we have been all year," Leyland said. "We need to get our pitchers straightened out. It's still a mess."
