Where does the Tigers organization stand after the trade deadline?

Well at least it’s over. If you like a storm of rumors and a trading frenzy that last a whole weekend, the MLB trade deadline is right up your alley. But for fans of a team that had high hopes, failed, and sold off, you really just want to rip the band-aid off and move […]

Tigers head to Seattle to take on Mariners on Tuesday

The Detroit Tigers got a breather after sweeping the Athletics in Sacramento last weekend, pulling them to within four games of .500. Along the way, the trade deadline happened, with Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize being shipped out to help restock the farm. Next up for the Motor City Kitties on their nine-game West Coast […]

Grading the Detroit Tigers trade deadline moves

For all the drama surrounding the Tarik Skubal sweepstakes, and the will they or won’t they position the Tigers were in as the trade deadline approached, the Detroit Tigers ultimately kept to just two notable trades. They got good value for both Skubal and Casey Mize, but at the same time didn’t really address their […]

Tigers trade RHP Casey Mize to the San Diego Padres

Well, the Detroit Tigers didn’t necessarily need to trade Casey Mize, and so they held out until moments before today’s 6:00 p.m. ET trade deadline. Right at the buzzer, a deal was announced, sending Mize to San Diego in exchange for the Padres #2 ranked prospect, 21-year-old left-hander Kash Mayfield and 27-year-old left-handed starting pitcher […]

2026 MLB Trade Deadline final countdown open thread

Well, we’ve finally arrived at trade deadline day. The entire major league calendar is wiped clean with no games today, so that everyone can focus on what will probably be a very wild day around the league. With the Tigers having already dealt Tarik Skubal, there isn’t really another obvious major deal set to go […]

Jackson Jobe rehabs again with West Michigan

Columbus Clippers 6, Toledo Mud Hens 3 (box) Toledo dropped a fifth game agaisnt Columbus on Sunday behind a rough start from Carl Edwards Jr. The Clippers take the week, 5-1. Edwards hasn’t been very good as a starter for Toledo this year. With today’s five earned runs, he’s at a 9.25 ERA through seven […]

With Tarik Skubal traded what else should the Tigers do at the deadline?

The Detroit Tigers finally bit the bullet and moved Tarik Skubal for a pretty good prospect package late on Saturday night. Only time will tell how this turns out, but they did get a nice mix of talented young players and a high risk, high reward acquisition in River Ryan. With the August 3rd, 5:00 […]

Tigers maul the Athletics again for the sweep

Keider Montero fired six shutout frames and the Tigers bullied Athletics pitching again to win 11-0 and complete a three-game sweep. The Tigers scored 32 runs in this series. No one player was really the hero as the offense pounded out 12 hits and drew nine walks, but Eduardo Valencia continued to rake, contributing a […]

Tigers seek a road sweep of Athletics on Sunday

The Detroit Tigers took the second of their three-game road series against the Athletics with an 8-6 win on Saturday night. Max Clark hit his first major league home run and Framber Valdez threw a quality start, but the bullpen almost gave another one away in the late innings. Looking to seal the sweep in […]

Josue Briceno homers twice, Lakeland wins in extras

(F/8) Toledo Mud Hens 8, Columbus Clippers 6 (box) It was another rough one for Sawyer Gipson-Long, but Toledo’s offense and bullpen held things together to get the first win of the series. SGL only lasted 1.2 innings, giving up four runs in the second inning on a homer, a walk, a double and two […]

Scouting the prospects traded to Detroit for Tarik Skubal

On Saturday night, just a little before midnight, Jeff Passan of ESPN broke the news that the Detroit Tigers and the Los Angeles Dodgers were finalizing a trade for ace left-hander, Tarik Skubal. In return, the Tigers receive 21-year-old corner outfielder, Zyhir Hope, 27-year-old right-hander River Ryan, and 21-year-old right-handed pitcher Brady Smith. First reaction? […]

Max Clark cracks first MLB homer as Tigers survive late scare

After Friday night’s easy win with you-know-who making his big-league debut, Saturday night’s contest was a little closer than it should have been. Obviously the bigger news of the evening was regarding a certain other you-know-who on the Tigers, and that will be dissected in-depth for years to come, I assume (cf. the Smoltz/Alexander trade). […]

Tigers look to clinch road series at Athletics on Saturday

The Detroit Tigers opened up their West Coast road trip on Friday night with a 13-1 blowout victory over the Athletics in Sacramento. Max Clark shined in his major league debut and the bullpen successfully shut down the opponents. On Saturday night, the Motor City Kitties can clinch the weekend series behind left-hander Framber Valdez, […]

Thayron Liranzo’s late homer powers Erie

Columbus Clippers 9, Toledo Mud Hens 4 (box) Lael Lockhart Jr. and Beau Brieske were both hit hard in this one and the deficit was too much to overcome. Max Anderson walked, stole second for his fourth swipe of the year, and scored on a Corey Julks single in the top of the first. Lockhart […]

Max Clark makes quite a splash in his major-league debut

The opener of a three-game series in Sacramento saw a highly anticipated big-league debut which absolutely did not disappoint, and a low-scoring game was blown wide open in the late innings as the Tigers won 13-1. Casey Mize was supposed to be the starter but was scratched because (a.) he might be traded, (b.) his […]

Tigers kick off West Coast road trip against Athletics this weekend

The Detroit Tigers kick off a nine-game West Coast road swing on Friday night against the Athletics in Sacramento. The good guys got a breather on Thursday night — and will get another one on Monday before moving on to take on the Seattle Mariners — so hopefully the team is well rested after its […]

Hayden Minton, Lucas Elissalt, and Cale Wetwiska post strong starts on Thursday

Columbus Clippers 9, Toledo Mud Hens 5 (box) The Hens once again had their starter blown up by the Clippers to lose their third straight in this series. Dylan File was torched for five runs in the second and one more in the third before departing the game. The Hens actually pounded out 12 hits […]

2026 MLB Trade Deadline Open Thread

The 2026 MLB trade deadline is set for Monday, Aug. 3, at 6 p.m. ET. For the Detroit Tigers, the deadline has been an item of contention, as the team just cannot seem to position itself for a legitimate run toward the playoffs. After a brutal May that saw the Olde English D win just […]

Max Clark to be promoted for his Detroit Tigers debut, per report

On Thursday morning, Emily Waldon of Baseball America and Just Baseball Media reported that the Detroit Tigers plan to call up top prospect, center fielder Max Clark, in advance of their series with the Athletics in Sacramento starting Friday night. Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic Detroit confirmed that report later. With outfielder Matt Vierling seemingly […]

Max Clark and Josue Briceño go yard, Ben Jacobs strikes out 8 for Whitecaps

Columbus Clippers 9, Toledo Mud Hens 7 (box) Relievers Luke Taggart and Jack Little were lit up for seven runs in the first inning. The Hens’ offense fought back all game long but couldn’t make up the deficit. Columbus loaded the bases against Taggart and he then walked in two runs before Little took over […]
