Stanley's Tiger tale


Former Wild Things starting pitcher Patrick Stanley has signed with the Detroit Tigers.

Stanley played for Washington in 2006 (8-4, 2.72) and had his 2007 season cut short by an injury. He played last year with the Newark Bears of the independent Atlantic League. Stanley had a big first half of the season with Newark and made the all-star game before tailing off in the second half. For the season, the right-hander had a 10-8 record - he had a six-game winning streak - with a league-leading 151 strikeouts. His 4.90 ERA was seventh-best in the league, which tells you something about the offense in the Atlantic.

This is Stanley's second stint in affiliated ball. He spent two years as a relief pitcher in the Colorado Rockies' system before joining the Wild Things.
