Mike Pelfrey gave up two unearned runs in an 8-2 win over the Tigers on Thursday. It was his first regular season start since Tommy John surgery last April. And it was a pretty typical Pelfrey start, as he scattered five hits and two walks while striking out one and inducing 13 ground balls. He threw a total of 97 pitches, but should be ready to pass the 100-pitch threshold soon enough. "Big Pelf" may not have much fantasy value, but he should be a decent innings-eater for Minnesota.
