Three Degrees Of Pat Caputo 8-24-11
Three controversial decisions made by Tigers manager Jim Leyland lately that have proven to be correct.
1. Not starting Justin Verlander Sunday vs. the Indians (Tigers won both Sunday and Monday, when Verlander started at Tampa Bay).
2. Putting Brandon Inge in the starting lineup vs. left-handed pitching. (The Tigers have won both games Inge has started since returning from Toledo).
3. Using Jose Valverde in a non-save situation Monday, which kept him from being used Tuesday. (Tigers won both games).
