Dillon Dingler’s breakout has him among baseball’s best

You’d be excused if you avoided watching the Detroit Tigers in the month of May, as injuries and underperformance led to a 6-22 record for the month. If that was you, you might’ve missed Dillon Dingler’s early-season breakout. However, Dingler’s rampage through early June makes one thing clear: Detroit has a top catcher on their […]

Casey Mize rehabs, Jace Jung slams, and Brett Callahan homers again for Erie

Toledo Mud Hens 12, St. Paul Saints 4 (box) The Hens scored early and didn’t stop all night as they beat down the Twins’ affiliate on Tuesday. They got going right out of the gate. Max Clark drew a leadoff walk in the first, Hao-Yu Lee, who has impressively taken the demotion and gone down […]

Dingler dingers drive Detroiters over the Twins

Storms moving through southeastern Michigan delayed the start of the opener of a three-game home series against the visiting Minnesota Twins, who’d swept the Tigers in a frustrating four-game series in April. Well, the Tigers got a fair amount of revenge on Tuesday night as homers flew fast and furious over various fences for both […]

Detroit Tigers continue homestand with 3-game series vs Minnesota Twins

The Detroit Tigers open up the second half of their current six-game homestand on Tuesday night against the Minnesota Twins. With five wins in six tries so far this month coming against the leaders of the American League East and West divisions, AJ Hinch’s squad now has a chance to make up some ground in […]

Options for the Tigers to replace Jahmai Jones

Well, we had some good times in 2025. Lefty masher Jahmai Jones seized that role from Andy Ibáñez, hero of the 2024 AL Wild Card series win over the Houston Astros, last year and he ran with it. This year it just isn’t happening, and while it’s easy to give up on a bench bat […]

Kevin McGonigle walks off the Mariners

After a tense afternoon that saw the Tigers forced to come back repeatedly to keep pace with the Mariners, they reached the ninth inning still down a run. The Mariners ran themselves into a pair of dumb outs on the bases with Will Vest on the mound, and that set the stage. The back of […]

Tarik Skubal’s rehab in West Michigan went perfectly

There was a Tarik Skubal party in Comstock Park on Sunday. The Detroit Tigers’ ace took the mound for a rehab outing against the Dayton Dragons, the Cincinnati Reds’ High-A affiliate. Huge crowds turned out on a beautiful, sunny day, and Skubal did not disappoint. He appeared fully on track to rejoin the Tigers’ rotation […]

Mariners pitching smothers Tigers bats to even the series

Bryce Miller one-hit the Tigers over six innings of work, while Keider Montero had a bit of a rough day on the mound. The Tigers’ bats were quiet all afternoon, failing to take advantage of good work from their bullpen, as the Mariners evened the series at a game apiece with a 4-0 victory on […]

Whitecaps walk off Dayton, Callahan and Peck homer for Erie

Toledo Mud Hens 8, Iowa Cubs 4 (box) The Hens bullpen had a good night as the lineup build a nice lead, and the pen shut the Cubs down for much of the game. On another rainy day in the region, a planned doubleheader was switched to a single game, with the doubleheader to make […]

Carpenter and Torkelson help extend Tigers’ winning streak

The Tigers have extended their winning streak to four, and it’s starting to look like it’s not just luck. They beat the Mariners 7-3 on Friday night. The Tigers were back in Detroit after a very hot and cold road trip. They were still riding the high of their sweep of the Rays at the […]

Framber Valdez’s confusing lack of ground balls

Like so much of the Detroit Tigers’ 2026 season, Framber Valdez hasn’t exactly worked out as planned. Signed to a backloaded 3 year, $115M deal with an opt out after 2027, Valdez was supposed to stabilize a rotation that had Reese Olson injured and Jack Flaherty a total wildcard coming into the season. More importantly, […]

Tigers sweep with a dazzling Melton start and another Dingler homer

The Tigers did the seemingly impossible on Wednesday afternoon as they wrapped up their series against the American League’s top team with a sweep, winning 7-2. I’d be very curious to know if someone in the Tigers’ front office has promised their firstborn child to an Etsy witch, or something, because I don’t know who […]
