"The Tigers placed SP Dontrelle Willis on the 15-day DL Monday with an anxiety disorder, but Willis believes the problems are mechanical, not mental. "I've talked to everybody, and I don't feel like I have any nervousness out there," Willis said. "I've got so many moving parts that if one's out of whack from time to time it happens. This is not the first time I've had control problems, but I've been able to overcome it, so I'm not worried about it." Willis has been his usual gregarious self during a three-game interleague series against the Cardinals, constantly joking with teammates. He even punctuated many of his comments about going on the DL with laughter. The team plans to recall right-hander Alfredo Figaro from Triple-A Toledo on Saturday to fill Willis' turn in the rotation against the Brewers (Sportsline)."
How are the Tigers getting away from this. Willis is even coming out and saying that he is not suffering from anxiety. I just don't believe this for a second. He just sucks, and he knows it. Anyways maybe if Dice-K can't get himself going the Sox can get say he was feeling anxious and put him on the DL...
