Detroit Tigers News: Willie Horton, MLB Postseason, Rays, Guardians, Dodgers, Drew Rasmussen

The ALCS reaches a pivotal moment as the Tampa Bay Rays, buoyed by Drew Rasmussen’s clutch performance in Game 5, close in on a World Series berth against the Brewers. Meanwhile, Detroit celebrates Willie Horton’s 84th birthday and adds former catcher Martín Maldonado to its coaching staff, reuniting with A.J. Hinch. The post also previews Game 6, reviews the Dodgers’ NLCS sweep, and touches on a weak free‑agent pool and offseason moves.

ALCS Game 4 gamethread: Rays at Guardians, 8:00 p.m. ET

The Cleveland Guardians rode their top arms to a slim 3-2 victory on Thursday, taking a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series. Gavin Williams and the Guardians did their thing, racking up 13 strikeouts and allowing just two hits on the night. Williams, however, saw his velocity start to plummet beyond 50 pitches in that […]

MLB created a Dodgers monster and they want the players to help slay it

As we near the conclusion of the 2026 major league baseball season, the powers that run the game and the players who play it are gearing up for another major confrontation this offseason. The new collective bargaining agreement is going to be an ugly and probably a painfully long process before the parties come to […]

NLCS Game 3 gamethread: Brewers at Dodgers

With the Cleveland Guardians and the Tampa Bay Rays tied up at a game apiece and taking an off day to move the series to Cleveland, attention shifts back to the National League fully on Wednesday night. The Dodgers are in trouble. With Shohei Ohtani presumably battling injuries and entirely ineffective at the plate over […]

Dillon Dingler and Zach McKinstry named finalists for Gold Glove Awards

The 2026 Rawlings Gold Glove awards won’t be announced until November 1, but the list of finalists at each position was released on Wednesday. The Detroit Tigers have two representatives in the group of American League finalists, one with a legitimate shot to win an award, the other a longshot. Dillon Dingler is the first […]

ALCS Game 2 gamethread: Guardians at Rays

The Milwaukee Brewers went up 2-0 over the reigning World Series champions, the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday. That series moves to Los Angeles on Wednesday. So far, the talented young Brewers have looked much better at the plate than the Dodgers, but we’ll see how long that holds up. The Dodgers are definitely backed […]

ALCS/NLCS gamethread: Dodgers at Brewers, Guardians at Rays

The star studded pitching matchup between the Milwaukee Brewers Jacob Misiorowski and the Los Angeles Dodgers Tarik Skubal turned out to be a bit of a dud on Sunday night. Both were overpowering at points, but neither produced anything close to a dominant start. Ultimately, Skubal took a bit more damage, the Dodgers veteran bats […]

Detroit Tigers News: Zyhir Hope starts well in Arizona Fall League action

As the league championship series get underway, there isn’t a whole lot of news out of the Detroit Tigers. Minor league reliever Tanner Rainey elected free agency last week. The Tigers parted ways with first base coach Anthony Sanders and assistant pitching coach Juan Nieves, following in the steps of Joey Cora, who was replaced […]

NLCS Game 1 gamethread: Dodgers at Brewers

This is going to be a really interesting series. Can the evil Los Angeles Dodgers, whose ownership has been allowed to run rampant with deferrals and exemptions from revenue sharing payments, three-peat? Or will the scrappy, super-analytical Milwaukee Brewers finally break through and reach the World Series? We’re going to get a whale of a […]

MLB experiments with outfield positioning restrictions in the Arizona Fall League

The Arizona Fall League is only a few games into its five week schedule. The Tigers have some players to follow out there, including top prospects Bryce Rainer and Zyhir Hope, infielder John Peck, hard-throwing relief prospect Jalen Evans, along with starting prospect Win Scott. We’ll be updating their progress weekly throughout the Fall League […]

Where should the Tigers play Kevin McGonigle?

The first thing we should do this offseason is appreciate an all-time great rookie season, and what seems certain to be an AL Rookie of the Year award. The only real question around the Tigers fresh-faced star is where to play him. McGonigle played almost his entire, though certainly brief minor league career at the […]

MLB Divisional Round: Game 1 open thread

Join us as all four divisional series get underway on Saturday. Each best-of-five playoff series in the divisional round will have a 2-2-1 home field structure, where the higher seeded team hosts Game 1, Game 2, and if necessary the deciding Game 5, while the lower seed hosts Game 3 and Game 4. Chicago White […]

MLB Trade Rumors estimates Tigers arbitration raises for 2027

MLB Trade Rumors published their estimates for 2027 raises for arbitration eligible players on Friday. Their system is based on a model created by Matt Swartz that inputs all the relevant historical data on arbitration salaries both agreed and arbitrated to generate an estimate for each player. MLBTR has been using it for over a […]

Eduardo Valencia and Hao-Yu Lee seized 2027 roster spots

As the Detroit Tigers begin the 2026-2027 offseason, there are quite a lot of roster spots that are obviously locked up. Among the rookies there are many more question marks, but clearly Kevin McGonigle and Max Clark are in the lineup on Opening Day. For rookies like Ben Malgeri, Brett Callahan, and John Peck, things […]
