Per mlive.com, Nate Robertson, he the possessor of a 7.71 ERA in 2009 and a 6.35 ERA in 2008 and also the lucky recipient of a guaranteed contract beyond this year, thinks he can return to the Tigers this year.
Robertson said everything went well with his June 30th surgery to remove masses from his left elbow. "I should be back, hopefully, in September," Robertson said.
I am hoping that the Tigers' response goes something like this: "Take your time, Nate. No reason to rush anything. Did you notice we are in first place? Hey did you know that Sandy Koufax retired at age 30? He really did."*
*In the interests of full disclosure, I do have a slight bit of guilt here as Nate was very nice and accommodating to Computer Boy a few years ago at Tiger Fest.
