Latest blog entries from Detroit teams across every league
The NBA Playoffs are a fickle beast, and that remains especially true for the Eastern Conference Playoffs. Three of the four first round series went the distance, which saw the pre-playoff favorite Boston Celtics be eliminated after blowing a 3-1 lead to the Sixers. The number one seed Detroit Pistons staged a 3-1 comeback of […]
Rick Leach turns 69 today. In 1979, the Tigers picked him 13th overall. Leach reached the majors in the 1981 strike season, hitting .193/.320/.289 in 83 at-bats, mainly pinch-hitting with some first and right field. He played three seasons for Detroit without much success at the plate before his release. After leaving Detroit, the Blue […]
The stage is set for round two of the NBA Playoffs. Here are three ways the Cleveland Cavaliers can ensure victory over the 60-win Detroit Pistons. 1. Shrink the floor The Raptors and Pistons share a similar offensive profile. Neither team loves to shoot three-pointers, primarily because they aren’t very good at it. They’d prefer […]
The 2026 NFL schedule release is expected sometime in May, but we already know the 17 opponents for the Detroit Lions. Based on a repeating formula, the Lions’ nine home opponents and eight road opponents have already been determined. And based on that, strength of schedule can be calculated before the official schedule even drops. […]
Detroit Tigers pitcher Tarik Skubal will be undergoing surgery to remove loose bodies from his left elbow, it was announced today. Skubal, 29, won the American League Cy Young Award in both 2024 and 2025, having led the league in ERA both seasons. He has a 2.70 ERA in 43.1 innings over seven starts so […]
During Detroit Tigers’ ace, Tarik Skubal’s last outing, there was momentary concern as the pitcher shook out his left arm on several occasions. His velocity and command didn’t appear to be impacted and Skubal didn’t think there was anything really wrong. Unfortunately, as A.J. Hinch told reporters minutes ago, loose bodies were found in his […]
If you were plotting out the season before this weekend, taking two of three games against the Astros might have been a nice consolation prize. Losing two instead, when the Astros are a bad team – great offense, poor pitching – is of no consolation. The Red Sox sit 10 games back in the AL […]

There’s no such thing as “winning” the NFL Draft, but the closest a team can come to it is maximizing the value in each of their picks. Obviously, that simply means drafting the best players available to you, but every draft that challenge is easier for some teams than others. The more and earlier your […]
Tigers 7, Rangers 1
Hello and happy Monday, folks. The Boston Red Sox baseball club is at it again tonight. They travel to Detroit to face the Tigers in the first of a three-game series. First pitch from the Motor City is 6:40 EST. The best lefty on the planet will be taking to the mound, as Payton Tolle […]
The Detroit Tigers wrapped up a series win over the visiting Texas Rangers on Sunday with a 7-1 victory at Comerica Park. Spencer Torkelson went yard for the sixth time this season to give his team a lead that the bullpen would not relinquish. On Monday, the Motor City Kitties kick off the second half […]
It is safe to say that after the letdown that was 2025, the Detroit Lions needed to hit reset in 2026. They did not require a major overhaul, but there was a clear need to add affordable talent. With limited capital in terms of salary and draft picks, it was going to be a difficult […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers did enough to get past a plucky Toronto Raptors team that put up a much better fight than we thought going into the series. Now, they have their hands full against a 60-win Detroit Pistons team. The Pistons didn’t look like the juggernaut they were in the regular season in the first […]

They’ll be back in action right away as they start the second-round series against the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday evening. Here’s how the schedule looks: Games five through […]
The Detroit Tigers bullpen put together a really impressive game as six different relievers handled the Rangers without much trouble. Meanwhile, Spencer Torkelson supplied some power, and a parade of soft hits that found holes helped them pile up the runs and win this series two games to one on Sunday night. The Tigers have […]
The Tigers have a pulse. LSU (29-21, 9-15) got a desperately-needed sweep over lowly South Carolina (22-28, 7-17) to at least keep the Tigers’ postseason aspirations alive for another week. While LSU’s NCAA Tournament outlook is cloudy at best, one can’t help but think the future is bright thanks to some blossoming freshmen. Saturday (Game […]

Good morning, folks… The Texas Rangers fell to the Detroit Tigers by a score of 5-1 last night. The DMN writes that Kumar Rocker’s performance was a reminder of the non-linearity of progress. It could be worse, though…the Cincinnati Reds tied a major league record by walking seven straight batters against the Pirates yesterday. Brandon […]
