Latest blog entries from Detroit teams across every league
Thomas Harding announced this morning that Rockies right-hander RJ Petit (No. 23 PuRP) has undergone Tommy John surgery after suffering the initial injury on March 4 against Team USA. Petit was selected by the Rockies in the first round of the Rule 5 Draft back in December from the Detroit Tigers. The 6’8” righty was […]
Too often, we judge a signing only by talent level and fit. But one of the bigger parts of free agency is finding value. Contract terms can be both telling about how the team views a new player and how good an addition they are. If a player is signed with no guaranteed money, you […]
Detroit Tigers’ infield prospect Hao-Yu Lee didn’t have the type of camp he was looking for this spring, but he remains one of the club’s best hopes for hitting help from the farm system in 2026. He was far enough ahead of the curve as a prospect that even now, after a full season of […]
A three-goal third period and a monster performance from Jeremy Swayman powered the B’s to their most important win of the season (for now), as they beat the Red Wings 4-2 in Detroit. When the B’s went down 2-1 just four minutes into the third via an Alex DeBrincat goal, you could be forgiven for […]
It’s Saturday night friends with a big divisional game on the line between the Boston Bruins and Detroit Red Wings both fighting for postseason play and positioning. Per the Bruins, there are no lineup changes tonight. We’ll see Lukas Reichel back in the lineup for his second game in the Black and Gold after an […]
The Detroit Tigers closed out their 2026 Grapefruit League schedule with a strong performance from Framber Valdez, Drew Anderson, and Tyler Holton in a 3-1 victory over the Yankees on Saturday. Now the club, including prospects like Kevin McGonigle, Max Anderson, Trei Cruz, and John Peck, heads out to Scottdale, Arizona for two exhibition games […]
I do grow weary of spring training games. My standing rule of baseball is that if you’re going to be a boring game, you better be short, and today’s contest against the Tigers was boring but about as long as a real matchup. The Yankees pushed across just a single run in the Saturday matinee, […]

We’re just days away from the season starting for real, and that can make the remaining Grapefruit League showdowns feel kind of underwhelming. For today at least, the big hook is the starting pitching matchup, with one of the game’s most reliable workhorses facing one of its bright up-and-comers, as the Yankees travel down to […]
The Detroit Lions have been mostly bargain bin shopping this offseason, trying to manage a tight cap while finding diamonds in the rough. While that strategy has been heavily criticized this offseason on defense, the Lions’ offensive additions seem more reasonable and productive. Nowhere is that more evident than in what the Lions did to […]
It was a bit over a week into the 2026 free agency period before the Detroit Lions signed an edge rusher (DJ Wonnum), but it only took them three days before they added a second. On Friday, the Lions announced that they had signed former first-round pick Payton Turner. Injuries have impeded Turner’s production and […]
Earlier this week, we published our latest SB Nation Reacts survey, sponsored by the folks over at FanDuel Sportsbook, asking Detroit Lions fans one question: Which free agent loss will have the biggest impact on the Lions? For this exercise, we gave Lions fans five options to choose from to answer this question—LT Taylor Decker, […]
Join us as the Detroit Tigers farm system matches up against Konnor Griffin and the Pittsburgh Pirates farm system in the annual Spring Breakout game. The Tigers will have Max Clark in center field and 2025 first rounder Jordan Yost at shortstop in the starting lineup, with Bryce Rainer in the DH slot and hard-throwing […]

Today’s game features two of the best starting pitchers in the game: Reigning AL Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal versus 2025 NL Cy Young runner up Cristopher Sanchez, who is making his return to the Grapefruit League after a wonderful overall performance in the World Baseball Classic. The Phillies also have Bryce Harper and Kyle […]
The Detroit Tigers have gone a long time without finding a big time player in the international free agent market. There have been signs of life from Wenceel Pérez and Keider Montero, and fourth ranked prospect Josue Briceño, but they’re still waiting for a star player to emerge. Teenaged outfielder Cris Rodriguez may be be […]
Staying true to his word, it hasn’t been the splashiest of free agency periods so far for Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes. Both Holmes and Dan Campbell have said from the beginning that their goal is to draft, develop, and retain their own players. In fact, if you look around the league at the […]
Earlier this week, contract details on the Detroit Lions’ re-signing of Malcolm Rodriguez came out, and if you were to just look at the Over The Cap outline of the deal, it would probably be pretty confusing. Rodriguez has a salary of over $2.5 million—all guaranteed—a signing bonus of $137,500, and a workout bonus of […]
I’m a bit stubborn about injuries, particularly with pitchers. One injury riddled season is par for the course for pitching prospects, and we don’t want to move pitchers way up and down the rankings, changing grades constantly unless there’s sustained growth or a sustained issue. Unless a pitcher becomes a regular feature on the injured […]
The 2026 NFL free agency period is just over 10 days old, and the decisions made across the NFL have significantly altered the majority of mock draft projections. For the Detroit Lions, we have seen the field of prospects narrowing, and there’s also been a heavy shift toward one position. In this installment, we explored […]
First period Emmitt Finnie tries to chip the puck over Jakub Dobeš. He does so, but it bounces off the crossbar and goes behind the net. Cole Caufield fires one of his patented surprise shots from the goal line and John Gibson spins as he catches it but keeps himself out of the net. Juraj Slafkovský gets Montreal’s first great scoring chance off the ensuing faceoff thanks to a lobbed saucer pass across the top of the crease from Nick Suzuki. Brendan Gallagher tips a point...
The Washington Wizards could not keep up with the top-seeded Detroit Pistons on Thursday in a 117-95 defeat at Capital One Arena. The Wizards’ offense looked out of sorts in the first quarter. The team’s only source of points over the game’s first five minutes came on a trio of midrange jumpers for six points. […]
Game 68: Montreal Canadiens @ Detroit Red Wings Start time: 7:00 PM EDT / 4:00 PM PDT In the Canadiens region: TSN2 (English), RDS (French) In the Red Wings region: FanDuel Sports Network Detroit Streaming: ESPN+, RDS, TSN+ Just a few days ago, all the talk in Montreal was about how they would work all their healthy forwards into the lineup, and made the decision to leave Brendan Gallagher in the press box for a game. Now, they’re dealing with an injury to Kirby Dach and tonigh...
The Washington Wizards play the Detroit Pistons at 7:00 p.m. today at Capital One Arena. Watch the game on Monumental Sports Network.
While the Tigers’ rotation is currently set, and they appear to have starting depth both among their relief corps and at the Triple-A, they don’t have much in the way of actual starting pitching prospects to help them this year. The most advanced of the bunch are left-handers Jake Miller and our 11th ranked prospect, […]
