Latest news and updates about the Tigers
The Orioles were unable to complete the double-header sweep on Sunday evening at Camden Yards, losing 4-1 to the Tigers in Game 2.

After yet another gut-wrenching loss in the first of two on Sunday, the Detroit Tigers and their fans really needed a win. They got it with some early offense and strong performances from Troy Melton, Tyler Holton, and Drew Anderson, who closed out a 4-1 victory with a nice six-out save. Facing lefty Trevor Rogers, […]

Desperately needing a win in the first of Sunday’s doubleheader, the Detroit Tigers had it in their grasp. They scratched out a small lead behind a quality Framber Valdez outing and took it into the eighth. Unfortunately, Kyle Finnegan coughed up a run and had to be bailed out by Kenley Jansen. The veteran closer […]
Infielder Chris Patterson announced his intention to enter the transfer portal on May 24, becoming Missouri’s first offseason departure after two seasons with the Tigers under head coach Kerrick Jackson. Patterson missed nearly two months this spring with an injury, sidelined from March 14 through May 9. He returned for the final three SEC regular‑season […]
Tarik Skubal is working his back from a minor surgical procedure on his elbow in record time. The two-time defending Cy Young award winner will be back in plenty of time to show he's fully recovered well ahead of the trade deadline in mid-summer. With the Tigers tanking to near the bottom of the majors this season, holding the third-worst record in MLB, a trade of the pending free agent is pretty much a lock. Skubal, who won an arbitration award of $32M against the team's low-ball offer ...
Not even a rainout can stop these red-hot Orioles! Perhaps I exaggerate just a bit. But after a convincing 7-4 win on Friday night, one can almost glimpse what this team could be. Maybe a series against last-place Detroit was just what these Birds need to kickstart their herky-jerky season. Don’t discount the importance of […]
Hello, friends. Weather robbed us of the Orioles getting to play yesterday. Given their all-too-frequent play this season, it may be that nothing was lost to the fan in not seeing the Orioles. As Zagreus is frequently reminded in the video game Hades, there is no escape. There will be two O’s games today, whether […]

Will the Detroit Tigers ever win again? This is a question many fans were asking themselves on Friday night as they watched the offense finally score more than three runs for the first time in seven games, only to see another game lost by Jack Flaherty and the defense. The result was a 7-4 defeat […]
Indianapolis Indians 7, Toledo Mud Hens 3 (box) The Tigers moved reliever Zack Lee up from West Michigan with Brenan Hanifee headed to Baltimore to fill in for an injured Burch Smith, and it did not go well. Troy Watson got the start, and despite minimal whiffs, navigated five scoreless frames. The Hens gave him […]
Tonight’s matchup at Oriole Park was not exactly the platonic ideal of what a baseball game should be. The weather was absolutely miserable. The teams were two of the worst in baseball. Let’s just say it’s not the kind of game you’d write wistful histories about. But the Baltimore Orioles versus the Detroit Tigers was […]
It is Friday night. The Orioles have beaten the Tigers by a 7-4 score. Gunnar Henderson had three hits, Pete Alonso and Jackson Holliday each homered, and four relievers combined for 3.2 scoreless innings to finish off the game, including a bounce-back outing from Anthony Nunez, as the O’s sent Detroit to their seventh straight […]
After a bleak four-game sweep against the Guardians to start the week, the Tigers left home and headed to Baltimore, asking themselves one important question: if two teams who just got swept by their league opponents face off against each other, which team is most likely to lose? I’m glad you asked. The Tigers and […]

It’s been pouring all day in the greater Baltimore area, but it appears we’re going to attempt to play baseball tonight, because the public won’t rest until they get to see two teams that are a combined 20 games under .500 do battle. People all around the country are hosting their Orioles/Tigers watch parties, and […]
The first matchup of the Red Sox and Twins, in Minnesota, was memorable for two things: Garrett Crochet getting hit so hard he’d eventually land on the IL, and the big breakout (of 2026) for Connelly Early. As they flew home to host the Tigers, the Red Sox stood at a 7-11 record, the opposite […]
Thursday was a lighter day on the Major League schedule, though the Yankees still had time to squeeze in a tough loss. The Bombers mustered just three hits at the plate and spoiled a solid Carlos Rodón start in their 2-0 loss at the hands of the Blue Jays. The loss locked in a split […]
At the beginning of May, the Orioles got their butts kicked for four straight games by the Yankees and they needed to act immediately to prevent the season from spiraling out of control. The O’s managed to do this in winning two of the next three series, including getting some revenge against the Yankees. A […]
It is a tough time to be a Detroit Tigers fan after watching their beloved team get swept at home by the Cleveland Guardians this week in four games. The Motor City Kitties have now lost six straight, nine of the last 10, and 14 of the last 16 — that last stat is just […]
The fourth game of the Tigers’ miserable series against the Guardians kicked off this afternoon and the best thing I can say about this series is that it’s almost over.

Less than two weeks after undergoing elbow surgery, two-time Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal was back on the mound throwing another full bullpen session at Comerica Park, making his return timeline much earlier than previously believed. Postscript: The bullpen session went well, by all indications. If Skubal continues progressing at this pace, he could return on the early end of the projected timeline following surgery. @MLBNetwork https://t.co/0oF60DZhB7 — Jon Morosi (@jonmorosi) May 21, 2...
Unfortunately for LSU the 2026 baseball season has officially come to a close before Memorial Day as the Tigers (30-28) fell to Auburn (37-18) 3-1 in round two of the SEC Tournament. “Our players gave everything they had in this tournament,” Jay Johnson said. “I thought our players fought and gave great effort throughout the […]
