| GDT: 8/4/09 - DET (55-49) VS BAL (44-61) - 7:05 p.m. ET --- VS --- Washburn adopts Tigers' pennant spiritDetroit (55-49) vs. Baltimore (44-61), 7:05 p.m. ETBy Mike Scott / Special to MLB.com08/03/09 11:46 PM ET DETROIT -- Embracing a pennant is something that the newest addition to Detroit's rotation is ready for. "This is what you play for," said Jarrod Washburn, who was an 18-game winner as part of the Angels' World Series championship team in 2002 and will be making his first start with the Tigers against the Orioles on Tuesday. Detroit manager Jim Leyland shared this important message with his team Monday afternoon before their four-game home series against the Orioles: Enjoy being in the midst of a pennant race. Detroit's struggles at the plate have been well-documented. The Tigers are 11th in the American League with a .257 average and 11th in runs scored. Many of those struggles are a mystery to Leyland himself. Yet the Tigers still find themselves in first place heading into Tuesday's game vs. the Orioles. And for that Leyland is thankful -- and excited. He wanted to get that message out to his players heading into the last two months of the season and it's something he hopes will catch on. "These are the moments you should embrace [as a player]," Leyland said. "Some of the greatest players in the game never got to play in a pennant race. I don't want our players to feel bad pressure. I want them to feel good pressure. "Let the little kid in each of them come out. This is fun. Competition is fun. You get to play against the best players in the world and just go out and play your game." Washburn has his opportunity to join the fun and make his presence felt. Making his Tigers debut at Comerica Park, Washburn is trying to continue the dominant midsummer stretch that made him such an appealing starter on the trade market in the first place. Washburn has allowed just three runs on 20 hits in 36 2/3 innings over his past five starts, all of them Mariners victories, including seven scoreless innings at Detroit on July 23 and a complete-game one-hitter against the Orioles July 6 in Seattle. A good debut from Washburn would go a long way, but Leyland knows one bad performance from his new starter or his team won't keep the Tigers from the pennant race. That's the great thing about the game of baseball from the manager's standpoint. "In this game you have the ability to turn the page and grind it out," Leyland said. "I still like our team a lot. But I want them to have fun, and if something bad happens, forget it and embrace [the game] again the next day." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pitching matchupDET: LHP Jarrod Washburn (8-6, 2.64 ERA)Washburn has allowed one run on seven hits over 16 innings against the O's this year. BAL: LHP Brian Matusz (MLB debut) Matusz joins the growing list of Orioles rookie pitchers this season when he makes his Major League debut against the Tigers. Although it had not been confirmed by the Orioles as of Saturday, it is likely the 2008 first-round Draft pick will get the start. Matusz has spent the majority of the 2009 season with the team's Double-A affiliate, the Bowie Baysox, where he's compiled a 7-0 record. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tidbits... Carlos Guillen continues to improve health-wise and should be able to play left field and bat right-handed soon, according to Leyland, although there is no set timetable in place. ... Pitchers Jeremy Bonderman, Nate Robertson and Dontrelle Willis are all on the disabled list and all were in the Detroit locker room on Monday afternoon. Bonderman and Robertson will join Triple-A Toledo for their injury rehabilitation assignments starting Tuesday. ... Detroit pitchers have struck out 7.14 batters per nine innings this season. That is the highest single-season strikeout per nine innings total by Tigers pitchers in franchise history. ... Detroit relievers have a 2.84 ERA over the past 21 games.------------------------------------------------------------------------ To track MLB play-by-play, to help post GDT outcomes: http://m.mlb.com/scores/ On the Internet MLB.TV Gameday Audio • Gameday • Official game notes On television • On radio• • XM Channel Schedule • Direct TV Extra Innings Schedule ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Up next (Probable Pitchers)• Wednesday: Tigers ( Edwin Jackson, 7-5, 2.64 ERA) vs. Orioles ( Jeremy Guthrie, 7-10, 5.37 ERA), 7:05 p.m. ET
