08:21 AM ET 05.03 | Detroit Tigers left-handed reliever Daniel Schlereth has no one to blame but himself, and he knows it. [Schlereth said Wednesday] it was his "own stupidity" to try to work through pain without telling anyone that he had an arm injury. Schlereth had allowed eight earned runs in seven innings when the Tigers sent him to Triple-A Toledo. On Friday, he had an MRI that showed he has inflammation in the shoulder's rotator cuff, said Kevin Rand, the Tigers' head athletic trainer. Schlereth then went on the Mud Hens' disabled list without having appeared in a game since he joined them. Rand said Schlereth's ailment is also classified as shoulder tendinitis.

When his shoulder heals what will his excuse be then? Dude is horrible. It???s pretty sad when Phil Coke is your best reliever. Tigers need to do something quick.

Coke has been good, but Dotel has been their best reliever and it's not close. 0.00 ERA in 9 appearances, 10+ K/9 and a 0.69 WHIP.

the reality its odvious, i'm disappointed in the tigers tranning staff, can't you see when a pitcher its linjuried? if you noticed, every time that the pitcher gives up 5 runs in a third of a inning,,,, it should tell you, that he has to be injuried!!!
