Back in the Saddle, Again

After a brief vacation to gamble on sports and get as much comped from MGM properties in Vegas as possible, Detroit Sports Weekly is back in action. And what a week it is for Detroit sports. We are only a few days removed from the NFL Draft, and last night the Lions, Tigers, and Wings were all in action after having Monday off. Seems like the day off did everyone good, as all three of our teams were victorious.

Having some time off was also good for us here at Detroit Sports Weekly. We've got a few new things in the works and, as always, we're tweaking the design of the website. The lovable trainwreck we know as Wilkie should have a new blog up very soon, hopefully having something to do with golf since we weren't able to get his Masters preview up in time....but probably not. I am also trying to nail down a baseball blogger to keep track of our Tigers, who will definitely be interesting to watch all season long.

Today's Action:
The Wings and Pistons have the day off before they both try to close out their respective series' tomorrow.

The Tigers are still in NY with a 7:00 pm start tonight. Jeremy Bonderman gets the start for Detroit, while the Evil Empire sends Andy Pettitte to the mound. Pettitte has been pitching well so far this year with a 3-2 record and a 3.23 ERA in 30 2/3 innings. He's struck out 17, while only giving up 10 walks. We'll see how those numbers look after facing this strong Tiger lineup tonight.

The game can be seen on FSN Detroit (in it's entirety tonight) and heard on 97.1FM/1270AM
