Rotation set? A step in the right direction.

I don’t know what to think about Dontrelle Willis’ start tonight.  I was excited before the game, though I was ready for a total implosion.  Here’s what we do know:  right now, Detroit has found its left handed starting pitcher.

Congrats to the D-train.  It was exciting to watch; it seemed like the entire team was pulling for him.  As Detroit tries to pull away from the division, maybe this the type of motivation they need.

Personally? If I were Dontrelle I’d retire tomorrow.  He’s got 25 years of motivational speaking and a Disney Movie sitting ahead of him.  That’s assuming he’s 1-0 for 2009;  at 3-10 its not much of a story.
