Hilarious.

The Tigers have been in contact recently with the agent for free-agent right-hander Derrick Turnbow, the Detroit Free Press reported. Turnbow earned 63 saves for Milwaukee in 2005-06. Turnbow, who turns 31 on Jan. 25, pitched in only eight games this year because of right shoulder trouble and control problems. He walked in 6 1/3 innings.

Isn't he with the Pirates now?

He walked in 6 1/3 innings.

 

This is a funny ESPN typo. It's like they wanted to say "He walked (OBSCENE) in 6 1/3 innings."

Or perhaps it was meant to say "He walked in 6....through 1/3 IP." Sounds about right.

The Pirates have shown interest in Turnbow, but have not signed him. Turnbow will most likely not sign with anyody until after he works out for teams in mid-january. On top of the Tigers, and Pirates, the Giants, and Rockies have shown interest in him as well. If he ever regains control, and gets that breaking ball back he could have alot of success again. Granted that is a huge if, regardless of how he ended his tenure here in milwaukee, I wish him the best, and hope he finds success again.
