| September 2, 2005 Tigers manager Alan Trammell stated Thursday that the club didn't expect to call up Justin Verlander now that rosters have expanded, according to the Detroit News. "It's not 100 percent no," Trammell said. "But it's not looking like we'll bring him up. At this point, the (Florida) Instructional League is more likely -- so he doesn't do anything to try to impress here." Verlander has been bothered lately by a "tired arm." |
