Latest blog entries from Detroit teams across every league
The Detroit Lions have made their first round pick and the fans and analysts are weighing in. With the 17th overall pick, the Lions selected Clemson’s Blake Miller. At 6-foot-7” and 317 pounds, he’s sure to be a physical presence on an offensive line that sorely needs some manpower to give quarterback Jared Goff all […]
The Yankees captured a good win on Thursday against the Red Sox. Cam Schlittler looked great once again, pitching eight innings, and a rally in the seventh on the backs of Cody Bellinger and Aaron Judge propelled them to victory. Although the schedule was light around the American League, there were still a couple of […]
Happy Friday, everyone! Extra happy that the Tigers do not need to play the Brewers today. Their exceptionally short trip back to Detroit is over and they’re on their way to Cincinnati to play the Reds this weekend. We’ve got some fun news bites to keep you occupied until tonight’s game. We’ll break down the […]
Round 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft is in the books, which means it’s time for every draft analyst to firmly declare who “won” and “lost” the draft and hand out grades for each pick. Our own Ryan Mathews provided his detailed analysis and opinion of the Detroit Lions’ selection of Blake Miller here, but […]
Detroit Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman kept it real at his latest press conference, stating to the media attending that his hockey team hasn't reached expectations because 'they need better players'. A huge statement from Yzerman, who is certainly on the hot seat this summer to turn things around in Motown. Yzerman's going to be very aggressive on the free-agent market and the trade market, and after acquiring Justin Faulk from the St. Louis Blues before the trade deadline, he'll need...
It was a roller coaster ride in the lead up to the Detroit Lions pick at No. 17. Despite some smoke from insiders suggesting that Brad Holmes was looking to move up in the draft, Detroit stayed pat and made their first selection in the 2026 NFL Draft. The Detroit Lions selected Clemson offensive tackle […]
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers bounced back nicely on their road trip against the Marlins and Tigers, and they’re now back in Milwaukee to host Paul Skenes and the Pirates this weekend. In some scary news, team No. 2 prospect and MLB No. 21 prospect Luis Peña reportedly collapsed in the dugout late […]
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 […]
The Detroit Lions used pick No. 17 in the 2026 NFL Draft to select Clemson right tackle Blake Miller as they continue to revamp their offensive line. Miller should instantly compete with Larry Borom for a starting role at right tackle, and the early expectations are that the rookie should be the favorite to win […]
While the Detroit Lions may not have been explicitly targeting an offensive tackle in the 2026 NFL Draft, they had to be happy without how the board initially fell. Through the first eight picks, there wasn’t a single offensive tackle off the board. However, the Cleveland Browns took Utah tackle Spencer Fano with the ninth […]
The Detroit Lions selected Clemson offensive tackle Blake Miller with the 17th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Miller was a player we profiled often on Pride of Detroit, and you can read some detailed things about him in the following articles. But here are five things you need to know about the Lions’ […]
With the No. 17 selection in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions have selected Blake Miller, right tackle from Clemson. Miller finished with elite scores on our GRIT Index (measuring a player’s character) and RAS (9.90, measuring a player’s athleticism) and should compete with Larry Borom for a starting right tackle role this season. […]
It’s finally time for the 2026 NFL Draft, and it’s a big one for the Detroit Lions. After a disappointing 9-8 season, a modest free agency period, and a lot of waiting, the Lions have nine picks this weekend to create some positive buzz and add some important players to the team’s roster. Lions general […]
Box Score The Brewers nearly won a pitching duel between Tarik Skubal and Brandon Sproat, but the bullpen couldn’t hold the lead. Milwaukee is now two games over .500 after dropping the final two games against Detroit. Rookie standout Kevin McGonigle led off the bottom of the first with a double. Sproat got the next […]
Steve Yzerman, general manager of the Detroit Red Wings, made it perfectly clear on where things stand with his team heading into the offseason at his end-of-year press conference. All it took was four words: We need better players. Steve Yzerman opens his Red Wings season-ending press conference addressing what this team needs to do to improve. “The most obvious would be need better players. We need to improve in particular areas, goal scoring, particularly five-on-five,” he said. Yzer...
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 […]
If you’re an elite young ballplayer looking for long-term financial security, you picked the right time to be alive. On April 15th, Kevin McGonigle of the Tigers inked an eight-year, $150 million contract extension which will keep him in Detroit until 2034. Eight days before that, Pirates phenom Konnor Griffin signed a nine-year, $140 million […]

The Brewers are about to face both reigning Cy Young winners in back-to-back games. Yes, you read that right. Reigning AL Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal is on the mound today in Detroit, and tomorrow the Brewers return home to a warm welcome from 2025 NL Cy Young winner Paul Skenes. Per Sophia Minnaert, this […]
The 2026 NFL Draft kicks off on Thursday night, and the Detroit Lions hold the No. 17 overall pick. To help Lions fans gauge what time the Lions might make their selection, we’ve looked at the last few years of data to estimate the anticipated time frame. However, our estimations need to be met with […]
Last April, I wrote a similar piece, operating under the premise that Brad Holmes—the unpredictable, best-player-available, talent-evaluating wizard that he is—might veer from commonly mocked and reported projections at Pick No. 28. One of my “surprise” candidates ended up being the eventual selection in Ohio State defensive tackle Tyleik Williams. The goal then, as it […]
It’s always a weird time of year doing these things. Yes, there are still plenty to talk about with Husker athletics, but not having something every day makes it a lot more difficult. Other than that, there is a hodgepodge of things going on, but when your teams suck (Bulls and Flames), the playoffs just […]
With the NFL Draft now just hours away, rumors continue to emerge surrounding the Detroit Lions. We’ve already heard reports that the Lions are enamored with Kadyn Proctor, that teams are thinking about trading ahead of Detroit to grab a tackle, and that there could be an early run on offensive tackles before the Lions […]
In Wednesday’s Brotherhood Playoff Action, Detroit beat Orlando, 98-83, and OKC tamed Phoenix, 120-107. Detroit didn’t have too much trouble with Orlando in this one, though Paolo Banchero scored 18 points and also had 6 rebounds and 8 assists. With just three points, Wendell Carter didn’t have a great game, though his rivalry with Jalen […]
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 […]
