Latest blog entries from Detroit teams across every league
The Texas Rangers scored a run but the Detroit Tigers scored five runs. I regret to inform you that the Rangers were back on their bullshit. A mystifying Achilles’ heel for the starting staff so far this season has been a persistent struggle to get the third out in early innings. That particular bugaboo certainly […]
After a rough day of injury news and in the wake of another messy start from Jack Flaherty, the Detroit Tigers needed to settle things down. Keider Montero was the man for the job, and he got it done with another quality start. Dillon Dingler supplied the power, and the Tigers put together a relatively […]
On May 1st in 2004, Detroit Red Wings superstar Steve Yzerman was struck in the eye by teammate Matthieu Schneider's second period slapshot in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semfinals against the Calgary Flames, falling the captain and silencing fans at Joe Louis Arena. Yzerman endured a four hour surgery to repair a fractured orbital bone and scratched cornea missing the rest of the playoffs

No NFL Draft is perfect, and Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes is not immune to the occasional miss. And while we here at Pride of Detroit are far from professional scouts, there are certainly times in which our outlook doesn’t align with that of Holmes. So in today’s 2026 NFL Draft roundtable discussion, our […]
Good morning, LSB. The Rangers scored late to beat the Tigers 5-4. Shawn McFarland writes about Zeke Duran’s big night and big catch. On the downside Brandon Nimmo is still being bothered by a pesky hamstring. The Rangers provided injury updates on Chris Martin, Robert Garcia and Carter Baumler. Still waiting on a Wyatt Langford […]
Rangers 5, Tigers 4
Steve Yzerman did not mince words at his season-ending media availability last week. "We need better players," the Detroit Red Wings GM said. "We need to improve specifically in certain areas. We can talk about goal scoring. We need to improve in that area, particularly five-on-five." Ten consecutive seasons without a playoff appearance will sharpen a man's language, and Yzerman was not sugar-coating what he saw in his own roster. Elliotte Friedman said on the 32 Thoughts podcast that pe...
The Detroit Tigers opened up their six-game homestand with a 5-4 loss to the Texas Rangers on Friday night. Jack Flaherty floundered once again and the offense simply fell short after clawing back from a 4-0 deficit. On Saturday night, the two teams will do it again, with right-hander Keider Montero taking the mound for […]
The Texas Rangers scored five runs while the Detroit Tigers scored four runs. The Rangers escaped the dank, musty confines of The Shed and immediately started scoring some runs. That included a real first inning, lead-grabbing unicorn with Josh Jung plating the game’s first tally with a two-out RBI single to show that his torrid […]

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf is not facing any criminal chargers stemming from an incident with a fan during the team’s Week 16 win over the Detroit Lions. “No charges will be filed against Steelers player DeKaylin Metcalf for incident with a Lions fan at game in Detroit in December, Wayne County Prosecutor Kym […]
The Knicks have gone to six games in the first round in each of the last three seasons, but not all six-game playoff series are created equally. While the Sixers and Pistons fought tooth and nail for all six games (especially Detroit), there are six-game series that aren’t as competitive as it sounds. This was […]
The Buffalo Bills picked Penn State defensive tackle Zane Durant in the fifth round at No. 181 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft. They acquired the selection in their trade back with the Lions earlier in the fifth round. This is the seventh piece in my rookie profile series, which is providing a detailed look […]
Another week, another Baseball America staff draft to cover. Why not? I love the draft, probably because it was the only chance for hope for much of the Al Avila years; even now, with the Detroit Tigers in first place, I can’t shake the habit. So here we are yet again. A ‘Staff Draft’ is […]

In a recent article, NFL.com’s Gennaro Filice named Keith Abney II a sleeper for Detroit. The Arizona State cornerback was drafted in the fifth round this year at pick No. […]
Every year, the lead-up to the draft feels like it takes forever. Then, draft weekend arrives, and the three-day process flies by in the blink of an eye. The 2026 NFL Draft was no different, and for all four teams in the NFC North, the emphasis on improving and separating themselves from the other teams […]
The Atlanta Braves lost the series finale yesterday against the Tigers, and although the offense was to blame for only scoring two runs, Joel Payamps was partly to blame as well as he came in and blew a one run lead in the eighth inning, and then to add insult to injury José Suarez came […]
The Detroit Lions’ 2026 NFL Draft—like any year—is bound to have a profound impact on the overall roster. Some players will see their stock rise with the additions. Others may now have a tougher route to the roster or a starting job. Here are six winners and three losers when it comes to players who […]
Happy Friday, everyone! The Tigers eked out a win against the best team in baseball yesterday afternoon. With Cleveland off on Thursday, this meant that the Tigers were able to get back to a .500 win percentage and also tie the Guardians for first in the AL Central. The team now heads home to hopefully […]
Now that the 2026 NFL Draft is in the rearview mirror, it’s time to look ahead to the next big item of the NFL offseason—the 2026 schedule release. Back in the day, prior to social media being the force that it is now, the NFL’s schedule release format was fairly low key. There were no […]
