The Atlanta Braves look to continue as the only team in MLB to not lose a series after going 10-3 after thirteen straight games in their own division. The Tigers have been good in their own right being in first place in their division while sporting one of the best top three rotation arms in […]
Patrick Kane is one of the most notable pending unrestricted free agents (UFAs) heading into the summer. If the future Hall of Famer ends up hitting the market instead of re-signing with the Detroit Red Wings, he would generate a ton of interest. Due to this, let's take a look at three teams that could sign Kane if he ends up being a UFA on July 1. Colorado Avalanche If Kane wants the chance to play for a top contender, it would make sense for him to sign with the Avalanche on a sh...
On Saturday night, Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes said the team had not yet made a final decision on the fifth-year options for running back Jamir Gibbs and linebacker Jack Campbell. But it appears that decision has now been made. According to FOX 2’s Dan Miller, the Detroit Lions will be activating Gibbs fifth-year […]

The Braves lead MLB with 5.72 runs scored per game. To put that in perspective, if they continue to score this many runs per game […]
It’s almost impossible to judge the true value of a draft pick in real time. People love labeling selections as “reaches” or “steals,” but that kind of talk is more guesswork than anything else at this point. What actually matters is how a player performs over time on the field and that obviously takes time […]

It is quite likely that the last two days will the slowest of the entire season for the Cincinnati Reds. Despite winning the overall series (and being on a roll overall), the Reds spent Sunday afternoon dropping the series finale in Great American Ball Park to the Detroit Tigers. Compounding things was the manner in […]
The Detroit Lions surprised many by taking a wide receiver in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, and they may not be done adding to the position. According to a couple different reports, the Lions are hosting at least two veteran receivers for free agent visits on Tuesday. Per Aaron Wilson, the Lions […]
The Tigers are somewhat intimidating, I’ll admit. They come into this series sixth in wRC+, but second (above the Braves) in xwOBA. Their rotation is fourth in fWAR, and the Braves will not see their one starter that’s been bad so far (Jack Flaherty). Those two things suggest something considerably weighty for the Braves to […]
As the calendar flips into another playoffless May this week for the Red Wings, we don’t have any breaking news, or much on the immediate horizon, for that matter. But we do have plenty to talk about stemming from the Red Wings’ locker cleanout media availabilities, as well as the first round of the NHL playoffs. Let’s get started. And if there are intriguing matters not covered here, drop them in the comments. Maybe we can roll out a mailbag-type article or two while we await the busy se...
Monday was likely a welcome off-day for the Atlanta Braves, a rare off day in the middle of a home stand for the team to catch its breath and reset. Fortunately, a resetting is not due to a lack of quality play as the Braves have the best record in baseball. However, the quality of […]

The Detroit Tigers wrap up their nine-game interleague schedule this week by heading south to face the Atlanta Braves starting on Tuesday night. After taking two out of three from the Milwaukee Brewers at home before dropping two of three at the Cincinnati Reds, the Motor City Kitties move on to face the top team […]
St. Louis Blues forward Jordan Kyrou is a prime trade candidate to watch during the offseason. The skilled forward has been in the rumor mill for a long time now, and it is clear that he could use a change of scenery. Because of this, let's look at three teams that could look to acquire Kyrou during the offseason now. Detroit Red Wings Adding another top-six winger this offseason should be one of the Red Wings' top priorities. Because of this, it would not be surprising in the slig...
The NBA Playoffs continue tonight with three more games on tap! In the Eastern Conference, the Detroit Pistons will try to avoid falling into a 3-1 series hole against the rejuvenated Orlando Magic.

A recent report from The New York Post’s Jon Heyman suggested that the San Diego Padres might return to their former Seidler-spending ways this offseason, even getting into the bidding war for the services of Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal. Skubal has long been sought after by other clubs, and teams like the Los Angeles […]

Detroit Tigers infield prospect Hao-Yu Lee had a pretty rough spring. After a slow start in camp, he headed off to represent his native Taiwan in the World Baseball Classic. An oblique strain suffered before the tournament even began caused him to miss the opportunity, and then it lingered, costing him the first week of […]
Red Wings boss Steve Yzerman made it pretty clear at the season-ending press conference: The team needs a significant change to get to the next level. In fact, he said, frankly, "We need better players." And if the offseason target is new, "better" players, then some current Wings will undoubtedly have to be moved out of Motown. Max Bultman of The Athletic names no less than seven Detroit players who may have played their last game with the team. We'll go through his list, from most like...
With the 2026 NFL Draft in the rearview mirror, it’s time for the annual tradition of immediately looking ahead to the next draft cycle to see what your favorite team might do (they almost certainly won’t) in the next offseason. While this exercise is meant to be fun and entertaining, I always recommend using it […]

After a gut-punch of a loss on Friday night, and a generalized shellacking on Saturday, could the Tigers salvage at least one win from their three-game series in Cincinnati?
