On a lovely Saturday afternoon, the Tigers settled in for their final two games of the Mizzou Invitational — below-freezing temps canceled the Sunday matchup — hopefully letting the offense fly and the pitching do its thing. Well, friends, for the second day in a row, as was the case for the first game. The […]
By this time of year, we’re often a bit exhausted with prospect lists and rankings. Baseball America, Keith Law, Baseball Prospectus, MLB Pipeline, and our own re-ranking of the Detroit Tigers farm system are already a month or more in the books. But FanGraphs does a particularly detailed job for the most part, and often […]
From the start of Detroit Tigers described Dillon Dingler as close to returning to full action after an arthroscopic procedure to clean up his right elbow. Still, the status of their starting catcher remaining uncertain was a little bit disconcerting, though Dingler was notably present catching bullpens on the backfields over the past two weeks. […]
The Tigers released a full schedule for televised Grapefruit League broadcasts on Friday. However, we’re still waiting on the details for Tigers TV and how and when games will be broadcast on local cable providers. The club thought those details would be finalized this week, but apparently we’re not quite there yet. In the meantime, […]

MLB and the Detroit Tigers social media team are pestering players daily with light-hearted questions when not roasting Casey Mize and Tarik Skubal for their coffee obsession. MLB had kind of a fun one yesterday that had a few of us cracking up trying to think of the ideal actor or celebrity voice to use […]

The Orioles are 3-2-1 through their first six Grapefruit League games. They had a tie with the Tigers on the road back on Sunday. The two teams – with very different lineups, because it’s early in spring training and this one is in Sarasota instead – will be back at it again today. This game […]
Over the last decade or so, it has felt like the balance of power in baseball has been shifting in favor of the pitchers. Paul Skenes just posted an ERA under 2.00 again, our very own Tarik Skubal is gunning for his third straight Cy Young Award, and hoards of flamethrowing relievers come out of […]
Hello, friends. Today marks exactly one month until Orioles Opening Day! The team will be playing exhibition games from now through March 23 to get ready for that. After yesterday’s 4-3 victory over the Rays, the Orioles are now 3-2-1 in Grapefruit League action. Awaiting today is a 1:05 game against the Tigers that will […]

Today’s Jays’ game is not on TV, one of the few that aren’t on TV. The game is at Lakeland, Florida in the Tigers’ spring park, Publix Field at Joker Marchant Stadium which has to be up there on the list of longest ballpark names, as well as getting two sponsor names into it. It […]
Here are the lineups. For the Phillies: For the Tigers: Let’s talk about it.
Now that we get Statcast data from Triple-A, Single-A, and spring training games, it’s a lot easily to find notable details in pitching performances. Even when things go poorly in early outings as pitchers and hitters shake off the winter rust, you can still get a nice baseline on pitchers’ velocity and movement profiles, and […]
Spring training is officially here, and while it still feels a lot like winter in a lot of places, Florida and Arizona have been buzzing with activity this week. The Detroit Tigers are already four games deep into their spring training schedule with three losses and a tie, and have their first split-squad game scheduled […]
Happy Wednesday everyone! We’ve had real baseball on our screens, complete with curmudgeon announcers griping about players with too many chains, and hot Tigers’ prospects missing some routine fly balls (both Max Clark, sorry Max). But more important than any of that: we have been able to see and hear the Tigers play, which means […]
The Atlanta Braves will be continuing their spring training today as they face off against the Detroit Tigers in North Port, FL. What typically happens in these games is we get to see mostly players who are slotted to have significant playing time during the regular season. Reynaldo López is making his long-awaited return after […]

Three games into the Cactus League and the A’s have collected twenty-five hits, resulting in only four runs and zero wins. Their run differential currently sits at negative nineteen, better than the Detroit Tigers by a single run. The only team with more losses are the Milwaukee Brewers, and that’s only because they’ve played more […]
Something the Detroit Tigers have lacked for a long, long time is speed. Sure, they have some players who can run and plenty who grade out around average, but I’m talking about a real burner. A guy who is a threat to steal a bag every time he gets on base. At various times over […]

First Pitch (CT): 12:05TV: NARadio: Tigers – WXYT 1270Know Yo’ Foe: Bless You Boys We don’t normally include a lot of info on Spring Training games, but let’s try a new “what to watch” section since stats and results and ultimate don’t matter.
