He's right-hander Matt Anderson, a reliever from-Rice University whose fastball travels in the mid- to- Olivares throws another 0 upper-90s a speed reached by few major league pitchers.

Ryan Anderson is the left-hander from Dearborn; Divine Child who has the height (6-feet-10) and perhaps the potential of Randy Johnson, the fearsome Seattle Mariners left-hander. Besides the two Andersons, the Tigers apparently are considering two other players for the top pick: J.D. Drew, an outfielder from Florida State, and Darnell McDonald, a high school outfielder from' Colorado. Tisers officials refuse to comoare the four olavers. but for several reasons, Matt Anderson makes more a r.

.1 .1 1 1 .1 -i and seventh innings. But a four-pitch walk to Luis Alicea leading off the eighth got the Tigers' bullpen up and throwing. Olivares then fought off the Angels, striking out Gary DiSarcina and Tony Phillips on 3-2 pitches and getting Darrin Erstad on an inning-ending groundout "I thought I was probably one pitch away from being out of the game," Olivares said. After Olivares survived the top of the eighth, the Tigers gave him breathing room with a four-run rally in the bottom of the inning, helped by three walks and a wild pitch from Angels reliever Mike James. First baseman Tony Clark turned in the game's defensive gem in the first inning.

Clark dived to his left and knocked down Jim Edmonds' hard grounder down the line. Clark scrambled after the ball in foul territory, and while on his belly made a no-look, behind-the-back flip toward first base. Olivares, who had sprinted off the mound to cover the base, speared the throw barehanded as he stepped on the bag for the out. "I didn't have time to think on the play just react," Clark said. "But Omar is an outstanding athlete, and I knew he'd be there if I could get him the ball." Bell said he had never seen a play like that "I had given up on it," Bell said.

"It was a great play on both ends." WEDNESDAY'S GAMES Baltimore at Detroit, 7:05 Chicago at Boston, 7:05 New York at Toronto, 7:35 Milwaukee at Minnesota, 8:05 Cleveland at Kansas City, 8:05 Anaheim at Oakland, 10:35 Texas at Seattle, 10:35 SUNDAY'S RESULTS DETROIT 13, Texas 5 CLEVELAND 7, Baltimore 6 KANSAS CITY 4, Seattle 3 (11) Milwaukee 11, CHICAGO 7 MINNESOTA 7, Oakland 6 (10) TORONTO 4, Anaheim 3 (11) Boston at New York, rain (Home teams In CAPITALS) NL STANDINGS BY GENE GUIDI Free Press Sports Writer Omar Olivares has heard the rumors, just as he did last summer, A number of contending teams in need of starting pitching are interested in someone like Olivares, who could make a lot of major league rotations look better. And the Tigers, always with one eye on the future, are willing to listen to offers. Olivares' value rose a little higher Monday when he pitched his second shutout of the season, a four-hit, 6-0 victory over the Anaheim Angels. The victory underscored the improvement in the Tigers' pitching from a year ago. They have four shutouts in May; last May, they had four wins for the month.

Olivares (3-3) allowed only two runners to reach second base while lowering his ERA to 3.05. "I'm happy to be right where I am pitching for the Tigers," said Olivares, 29. "I'd like to stay here because they were the team that gave me a chance Oast season). They gave me the ball every five days, and that gave me confidence. "I think good things are going to happen here, and I'd like to be a part of that.

But I'm older now, and I understand the business side of baseball, too. I don't have any control over that" Olivares, a right-hander, kept the Angels off-balance all afternoon by mixing an effective change-up with his fastball and slider. "Our guys were saying that he had good movement on all of his pitches and was working both halves of the plate," Angels manager Terry Collins said. "I've known Omar for a long time, and the difference is the command of his change-up. He's always had one, but I've never seen him be that effective with it." Olivares had to be sharp, because Angels left-hander Chuck Finley (2-4) wasn't giving the Tigers much in the early innings.

The Tigers broke through for the game's first run in the fourth inning when Brian Hunter drew a leadoff walk, went to third on Jody Reed's single and scored on Travis Fryman's sacrifice fly. Hunter also tripled and singled and scored three runs. Hunter has reached base in 10 straight games and has scored nine runs during that span. "Brian is playing so good right now," Tigers manager Buddy Bell said. "He brings a lot of energy to this team.

What I like about him is, he never takes anything for granted." Hunter's leadoff triple in the sixth led to the Tigers' second run. That looked like it was going to be plenty for Olivares, who set the Angels down in order in the sixth TIGERS AVERAGES iwi uivui man ivjaii miu.i un, Matt Anderson is a college pitcher and he's a' reliever. College pitchers generally are considered less of a gamble to draft than high school pitchers because they are further along in their physical development. Matt Anderson can't use the chance to go to college as a negotiating tool. And Matt Anderson fills the position ninth-inning closer that is the single most essential for an aspiring champion and yet is the most difficult to develop.

The 6-3 junior from Rice also has advantages over the other two candidates. Unlike McDonald, Matt Anderson doesn't have a football scholarship from the University of McDonald plays centerfield for Cherry Creek High School in Englewood, Colo. He's also an accomplished running back, and his chance to play major college football could drive up his signing price. Unlike Drew, Matt Anderson isn't represented by Scott Boras, the agent who already has indicated Drew could seek upwards of a $10 million signing bonus. The Tigers are interested in negotiating from the $2 million bonus that Pittsburgh gave pitcher Kris Benson, the first pick in last year's draft.

Matt Anderson is represented by the Hendricks brothers, the Houston-based agents who are known for doing about as well for their clients as Boras, but with less contentious negotiations. Tigers officials haven't yet decided on Matt Anderson. They are engaged throughout this week in draft-related meetings with their scouts and scouting supervisors. It's unlikely they would make any firm decision on the No. 1 pick before late this week.

The draft begins next Tuesday. Scouting director Greg Smith said that during this week's meetings, a player or two could join or depart the list of No. 1 finalists. "We're going to have some passionate discussions" Smith said. HOMECOMING: Angels manager Terry Collins knew he had some supporters at Tiger Stadium on Monday.

Collins, who is from Midland and an Eastern Michigan graduate, left 24 passes for the game. "I had great memories growing up a Tiger fan," Collins said. "I remember when I was a young kid coming here to Tiger Stadium and seeing Ted Williams hit two homers." HEAVY METAL: Former Tigers catcher Chad Kreuter, now with the Angels, had a tough time getting through airport security on his way to Detroit. "All that metal in Chad's shoulder kept setting off the metal detector," Collins said. Kreuter suffered a severe left shoulder dislocation and multiple fractures during a home-plate collision last July while playing for the White Sox.

He needed about $40,000 worth of plates and screws to reconstruct the shoulder. BY THE NUMBERS: Omar Olivares' four-hit shutout extended to 23 his streak of innings without an earned run allowed at Tiger Stadium The Tigers have won six straight against the Angels in Detroit. The Angels have failed to score in both of Chuck Finley's two starts against the Tigers this season.
