Looking to salvage one game of their best of four in Minnesota, the Tigers got a good start from Jack Flaherty and they wasted it. In the process, an outfield collision late in the game sent Parker Meadows to the hospital, though early signs are that he’ll be okay though likely to miss some time, […]

St. Paul Saints 4, Toledo Mud Hens 3 (F/13)(box) Pitching ruled the night as neither club could string anything together in this one. They eventually needed four extra innings to decide it. On the plus side, Sawyer Gipson-Long looked pretty good in his return to Toledo, while Max Clark’s on-base streak reached 10 games as […]

Another chilly day for a game in Minnesota (honestly, scheduling games before May in the midwest is really a fool’s errand, but that’s baseball for you). The Tigers, currently on a three-game losing streak, were looking to break up the bad luck with Framber Valdez on the mound. They’d be facing off against Bailey Ober […]

The losing continues for the Detroit Tigers, who dropped their third straight on Tuesday night to the Minnesota Twins, 4-2. To make matters worse, it was the second-straight Tarik Skubal start wasted in defeat. The ace southpaw struggled in his third game of the 2026 campaign, lasting just 4 1/3 innings while giving up four […]
Toledo Mud Hens 1, St. Paul Saints 0 (box) The Mud Hens welcomed back their home crowd with a well pitched game and just enough offense to everyone home quickly and out of the cold with a victory on Tuesday afternoon. Lael Lockhart Jr. got the start and the lefty set down the Saints in […]
After a pair of disappointing losses, the Tigers looked to right the ship on another chilly evening in Minneapolis. Despite having their ace on the mound, and the Twins putting together a far-from-fearsome lineup these days, those bats did enough to knock our starter around and secure a 4-2 victory for the Minnesotans. Tarik Skubal […]

The Detroit Tigers opened up their four-game road series at the Minnesota Twins on Monday night with a 7-3 loss. Casey Mize struggled in the frigid temperatures, while the bats also went cold. Tuesday night offers an opportunity to knot things up with the Twinkies behind the best left-handed pitcher in the world, Tarik Skubal. […]
It only took a week for Major League pitchers to realize they had a problem: how on Earth do you get Kevin McGonigle out? Examining his minor league track record gives no obvious answer. As a 20 year old last year, he posted a combined .305/.408/.583 slash line and a 1.28 BB/K ratio between High-A […]
On a frigid night in Minnesota, the Twisn perservered while the Tigers continued to make a mess of things, falling 7-3 in the first of four in the Twin Cities. The Tigers continued to draw tons of walks and then fail to cash in baserunners, while the usual rollercoaster that is Casey Mize followed a […]

The Detroit Tigers were unable to complete the sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals at home on Sunday night, falling 5-3 to end their first homestand of the 2026 campaign. Now, the Motor City Kitties go back on the road for a four-game series at the Minnesota Twins starting on Monday. After nine games played […]
Syracuse Mets 4, Toledo Mud Hens 3 (box) Toledo led for eight innings, but a ninth-inning collapse allowed the Syracuse Mets to walk off the Mud Hens, 4-3. After tons of offense yesterday, we got an old-fashioned pitchers’ duel through five in Syracuse. Carlos Pena looked sharp in his first start of the year, giving […]
A day after the Tigers secured the series victory — but lost Justin Verlander to the Injured List with a hip problem — they went for the series sweep on a chilly, breezy Sunday night. A costly throwing error by a Tigers pitcher against the Cardinals (déja-vu, anyone?) undid an early lead and sent Detroit […]

The Detroit Tigers have opened up their 2026 home schedule with a pair of wins against the St. Louis Cardinals and are looking to finish off the sweep on Sunday night in front of a national TV audience. Originally, Justin Verlander was supposed to make his Comerica Park debut in the finale of the three-game […]
It’s 2026, which means baseball is partially governed by robots. More precisely, the Automated Ball-Strike (ABS) system is in place with the challenge system. Lots of ink, including our own, has been spilled on the new system; personally, I’m a fan of this intermediate step between letting CB Bucknor do whatever he wants and replacing […]
Syracuse Mets 9, Toledo Mud Hens 7 (box) Toledo and Syracuse traded runs over the first five innings before settling at a 7-7 tie in the fifth. The Mets took the lead for good in the sixth and added an insurance run in the eighth, eventually beating the Mud Hens 9-7. Joander Suarez didn’t give […]
The Tigers made it 2-0 at home and 4-4 overall with a convincing show of power on Saturday. The pitching, particularly Jack Flaherty, was pretty sketchy, but four home runs from the Tigers set things right in a game that devolved into a slop fest in the bottom of the eighth and top of the […]
