Paging bullpen support for the Detroit Tigers
It’s a given year, and a given baseball season, and so the Detroit Tigers’ bullpen is a problem. Despite a nice run of 3-1-1 in their last five series, things still feel too precarious for any comfort. The club has the 19th best ERA and the 23rd best FIP out of their relief corps currently. […]
Casey Mize is pitching better than ever in 2026
Casey Mize has had an interesting career since being drafted 1st overall in 2018. Despite career highlights that include a Minor League no-hitter in his AA debut and a 2025 All-Star Game appearance, Mize has often felt underwhelming for a one-time top prospect. Some of that is due to injuries like Tommy John surgery wiping […]
Rainer notches three hits, MacDonald finishes a single shy of cycle
Toledo Mud Hens 2, Omaha Storm Chasers 0 (box) Toledo and Omaha each had five hits on Saturday, but the Mud Hens were the only team to score in a 2-0 win over the Storm Chasers. Sawyer Gipson-Long outdueled Mitch Spence in a battle of minor-league veterans. Both went five innings, but Gipson-Long was better, […]
Game 29 Preview: Tigers try to prevent a sweep at the Reds on Sunday
The Detroit Tigers have dropped the first two games of the weekend series at the Cincinnati Reds after their 9-2 loss on Saturday night. Jack Flaherty looked completely lost on the mound while solo shots by Kevin McGonigle and Spencer Torkleson were all that the offense could muster. On Sunday, they turn to right-hander Keider […]
Reds 9, Tigers 2: Bad Jack strikes again
Jack Flaherty had zero command of anything in this one and was mauled for six runs in two innings of work. Even accounting for Flaherty’s usual rollercoaster nature, this is two in a row where he really couldn’t put the fastball remotely where he wanted it with any consistency. Kevin McGonigle and Spencer Torkelson homered […]

Game 29 Preview: Tigers look to even series at Reds on Saturday

On Saturday, they turn to right-hander Framber Montero to even things up in the Queen City against their NL foes. The 25-year-old hurler has been […]
Rayner Castillo spins a gem in Whitecaps victory, Kelvis Salcedo returns to Lakeland
Toledo Mud Hens 4, Omaha Storm Chasers (box)(F/5) This one lasted just long enough as the Mud Hens seized the lead in the bottom of the fifth, and then the game became official as rain washed out the rest of the day. Lael Lockhart Jr. was uncharacteristically wild in this one, walking four. He gave […]
Reds 9, Tigers 8: Bullpen breakdown, Queen City shakedown
The Tigers continued their string of games against National League Central opponents on Friday night, in the opener of a three-game series against the Reds on the banks of the Ohio River. There was a big early lead which evaporated, and then a nice comeback for a late lead, but one final home run doomed […]

The Detroit Tigers continue the interleague portion of their early schedule this weekend with a trip to Ohio for a three-game series with the Cincinnati Reds starting on Friday night. The Motor City Kitties are coming off a series win over the Milwaukee Brewers at home. After getting spanked in the opener, 12-4, they bounced […]
Tigers 5, Brewers 4: Spencer Torkelson is a walk-off hero
It’s our second early game of the week, but thankfully this one wasn’t so early we needed coffee to get through it. The Tigers were hoping to come away with a series win, and with Tarik Skubal on the mound, that could only help their case. They had a great game on Wednesday night, and […]

Ben Jacobs spins another gem for Lakeland, Corey Julks remains hot in Toledo
Toledo Mud Hens 8, Omaha Storm Chasers 2 (box) The Mud Hens bashed four home runs in support of Ty Madden and cruised to victory over the Storm Chasers on Wednesday. Madden got himself into a jam with some walks in the top of the first, but escaped with just a run allowed. He went […]
Game 26 Preview: Tigers turn to Skubal to clinch series vs Brewers
The Detroit Tigers managed to bounce back in the second game of their weekday series against the Milwaukee Brewers, earning a 5-2 win behind a strong outing by Casey Mize and Spencer Torkelson’s first home run of the 2026 campaign. Kenley Jansen made things a bit too exciting in the final frame, giving the fans […]
Tigers 5, Brewers 2: Spencer Torkelson’s home run drought ends, pushes Tigers to a win
After a brutal outing against the Brewers on Tuesday, the Tigers were hoping to come back stronger in tonight’s game. They had Casey Mize on the mound, who has looked good this season, and the Brewers were opting to go the Opener route, something that would either mess with the Tigers completely, or work in […]
LHP Enmanuel de Jesus optioned to Toledo, RHP Burch Smith called up to the Tigers
In the wake of his disastrous performance in Tuesday night’s loss to the Milwaukee Brewers, left-hander Enmanuel de Jesus has been optioned to Triple-A Toledo. RHP Burch Smith has been recalled.

Mapping out what a Colt Keith breakout would look like
Detroit Tigers infielder Colt Keith is rolling in the early going of the 2026 season, and after two years of incredibly slow starts to seasons, that’s a positive development. On the other hand, Keith’s hot hand early on has led to a lot of frustration in the fanbase with the fact that manager AJ Hinch […]
Game 25 Preview: Tigers look to even series up with Brewers
The Detroit Tigers returned to Comerica Park — where they had won eight of their first nine games — on Tuesday night to open up a three-game series with the Milwaukee Brewers. Unfortunately, things did not go quite as planned, as the visitors spanked the Ole English D to the tune of a 12-4 defeat. […]
