Tweak delays Willis rehab
Posted: Monday May 05, 2008 06:53AM ET
Dontrelle Willis threw a bullpen session in the Metrodome on Sunday morning. It appeared the Tigers' left-hander was on course for his second rehab start, Wednesday night in Toledo. But a few hours later, the club announced that Willis had "tweaked his knee" while fielding a grounder in his first rehab start for Triple-A Friday night and that his rehab stint with Toledo is now on hold. Willis said later Sunday he hadn't reported any new trouble with the knee to the club following Friday's game.

It's because you have flacking sucked for us in just a start in Detroit Dontrelle- we are now making things up to keep room for minor league pitchers to start...

Report Offensive CommentWho didnt suck the first couple weeks of the season? Give this guy some run support for his first few starts and get him a few quick wins to boost the confidence, I think he will be alright, even against AL hitting. Comerica is a pitchers park...

Report Offensive Commentyeah, keeping Galarraga around isn't a bad thing. Willis needs to get healty, though, and see just what he can do for us.
