Three Degrees Of Pat Caputo 1-22-11
Three factors that could make or break the Tigers' pitching staff in 2011:
1. The health of Joel Zumaya - He should be fully recovered, but his track record with injuires isn't good.
2. Phil Coke's adjustment moving from the bullpen into the starting rotation - He has three good pitches and is determined, but if it isn't broke, why fix it? Coke was so solid in the bullpen.
3. Which Jose Valverde shows up - The one from the first half of last season, or the second half version that wasn't nearly as effective?
