Tigers send Durbin to the mound against Orioles

Apr 9, 2007 - 1:52 PM Detroit (3-2) at Baltimore (2-4) 3:05 pm EDT

BALTIMORE (Ticker) -- Postseason hero Kenny Rogers is on the shelf for a while. In his place is Chad Durbin.

Durbin takes the ball Monday when the Detroit Tigers visit the Baltimore Orioles in the opener of a three-game series.

Rogers underwent surgery on March 30 to remove a blood clot in his left shoulder and will be sidelined until July.

The veteran lefthander enjoyed an outstanding 2006 season for the American League champion Tigers, going 17-8 with a 3.84 ERA while starting for the junior circuit in the All-Star Game.

Durbin has not started a game since 2004 with Cleveland. He had no record in three appearances out of the bullpen in 2006 with a 1.50 ERA.

The Orioles will counter with Daniel Cabrera (0-1). The 25-year-old walked four in seven innings while allowing three runs to take the loss in his first start, April 3, against the Twins.

The tall righthander has a career 2-0 record in four starts against the Tigers despite surrendering 15 runs and 15 walks in 21 innings.
