20 Game loser
Detroit is on the verge of having two 20 game losers, Jeremy Bonderman is 6-18 and Mike Maroth is 6-19. Davy Lopes, former coach of the Brewers, took some heat for benching free swinging shortstop Jose Hernandez who was well on his way to obliterating Bobby Bonds single season strikeout record in 2002.
In light of this what do you think Alan Trammel should do? Personally, I think you put Maroth on the DL and let Bonderman pitch again since he's still 2 losses away from the record. These guys are young and inexperienced and play for the worse team in baseball. A season like this may very well hurt their emotional development and limit their potential.
