All-Star voting is a popularity contest, we know this much. While it’s nice to think that the All-Star Game is about skill and showing off who is best of the best, the reality is that it’s often a chance to spotlight the best-loved players as opposed to perhaps the most deserving. Without a complete overhaul […]
The Detroit Tigers dropped the second game of their three-game series against the Houston Astros at Daikin Park on Tuesday night, 4-2, in a game that saw them struggle against Hunter Brown in his return from the injured list. It certainly did not help that Colt Keith and Gleyber Torres were both absent from the […]
Toledo Mud Hens 2, Rochester Red Wings 1 (box) Troy Watson gave the Mud Hens a pretty good outing, and the bullpen held a slim lead to take the first of six in Rochester on Tuesday. Watson fired five innings of scoreless ball, allowing just one hit while punching out three Wings. Andrew Navigato opened […]
This was a low-scoring game until the eighth inning saw the Astros blow things open and ultimately win the game 4-2. The Tigers’ starting pitcher for tonight’s game should feel right at home taking the mound in the former Minute Maid Park. Framber Valdez spent his first eight years in the majors with the Houston […]
Guess who’s back. After throwing a live BP session on Monday, Justin Verlander has been announced as the Detroit Tigers starting pitcher for Sunday’s game against the Chicago White Sox. Keider Montero will be moved to the bullpen to open a spot in the starting rotation. Hopefully Verlander showed better stuff in his bullpen session […]

Outfielder Brett Callahan has been an interesting though unheralded Detroit Tigers prospect for a few years now. Initially, he caught our eye with good pull power and a strong throwing arm. Over the last few seasons, his complete game has really come together. After a modest start in his Double-A debut this spring, he’s caught […]
The Detroit Tigers took the series opener against the Houston Astros, 9-3, at Daikin Park on Monday night in a game that saw AJ Hinch’s team strike out 18 times but still nearly put up double-digit runs. Only one of those Ks belonged to Colt Keith, who homered in his other three at-bats and racked […]
After a pair of disappointing losses and a rainout at home against the Guardians, the Tigers hit the road for the Lone Star State, the Bluebonnet State, the Home of the Whopper (I assume) for the opener of a three-game series against the Astros in Houston. It didn’t exactly go as the Tigers initially envisioned […]

The Detroit Tigers’ road series against the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field was cut short on Sunday by bad weather, resulting in a de facto sweep by the home team over the two games they did manage to play. It is a bit of a shame, since the Guards would have been without their three […]
St. Paul Saints 14, Toledo Mud Hens 10 (box) It may look like a football score, but Toledo fell to St. Paul 14-10 on Sunday. The Mud Hens drop the series against the Saints, 5-1, with five straight losses. The good news is Max Clark had a three-hit game, as did Ben Malgeri, who was […]
The 2026 MLB amateur draft is now less than a month away. After all the preseason chatter and rise and fall of hot draft prospects, we are finally getting down to the point where draft board start to firm up. At the same time, this is when the gamesmanship really picks up, with teams hiding […]
The Detroit Tigers have not had much luck this weekend, dropping two straight to the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field, including a 3-1 loss on Saturday afternoon in Tarik Skubal’s return from the injured list. While the offense put up nine hits, the team reverted back to its unclutch ways, going just 1-for-13 with runners […]
St. Paul Saints 6, Toledo Mud Hens 1 (box) Toledo outhit St. Paul on Saturday, but the Mud Hens still fell to the Saints 6-1 thanks to nine walks. All six runs for St. Paul came with Carl Edwards Jr. on the mound for Toledo. Edwards had five of the nine walks and gave up […]
The Tigers’ ace returned to the mound looking healthy, but a little rusty as well. The lineup stranded a bunch of runners, and then largely went to sleep in the middle innings as the Guardians took the game 3-1, clinching a series victory on Sunday. Tarik Skubal returned the mound just five weeks after hitting […]

The Detroit Tigers dropped the opening game of their weekend series against the Cleveland Guardians, 3-2, on Friday night in a game that saw the good guys manage just two hits — both solo home runs — plus a good deal of bullpen action after Jack Flaherty left the game early with an injury. Speaking […]
St. Paul Saints 10, Toledo Mud Hens 9 (box) Dylan File was mauled in this one, and while the Hens fought back, it wasn’t quite enough on Friday. File gave up six runs over the first four innings of work to put the Hens behind from the start. Max Clark absolutely hammered a solo shot […]
After a series victory at home against the Twins, the Tigers headed around the corner of Lake Erie to take on another division rival in Cleveland for a three-game weekend series. The Detroiters could only manage a pair of solo home runs in a losing effort, dropping the opener 3-2 on Friday night. Jack Flaherty […]

If you’re anywhere in the vicinity of Cleveland this weekend, you might want to see if you can get yourself a ticket to the Guardians game on Saturday, because Tarik Skubal is back, baby! The Tigers’ ace has been gone fewer than 40 days, but it felt much, much longer as the team fell into […]
The Detroit Tigers wrapped up their homestand on Thursday afternoon with an 11-0 shellacking of the Minnesota Twins to give the team its seventh win in nine tries so far in June. Already, AJ Hinch and Co. have exceeded their win total for May with just under 2/3 of the month remaining. Not too shabby. […]
St. Paul Saints 1, Toledo Mud Hens 0 (box) Pitching was sharp on both sides in this one as Sawyer Gipson-Long posted his best start of the season while the Hens were held to four hits. The right-hander fired five scoreless innings of one-hit ball of his own in this one. Gipson-Long allowed two walks, […]
