Louisville Bats 9, Toledo Mud Hens 5 (box) Lefties Bryan Sammons and Sean Guenther both got rocked in this one and the Hens couldn’t overcome the deficit. Things started out in pretty promising fashion, as Corey Julks mashed his third home run of the year in the second inning for a 1-0 lead. Sammons was […]
While we’re all still on cloud nine from the Kevin McGonigle extension (do Tarik Skubal next, Tigers!) we have some fun little tidbits from after the big announcement as McGonigle spoke to the press about his long-term commitment to the team. We also take a look at how the Tigers and MLB as a whole […]
Everyone loves the MLB Draft, right? It’s April, which means it’s time to cover the second edition of Baseball America’s Mock Draft season! Yes, it’s irresponsibly early, and yes, here I am anyways. As a reminder, the MLB Draft is scheduled for July 11th and 12th. It recently got moved to the All Star Break […]

Happy Jackie Robinson Day, everyone! The Tigers and Royals were sporting their number 42s in Detroit, and hoping for a repeat of the previous night’s victory, perhaps with a few more runs.

Not too long ago, it felt like the Detroit Tigers would never win again. Following a five-game losing streak, the Motor City Kitties have now won four straight after taking the series opener from the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday night, 2-1. AJ Hinch and Co. have a chance to get back to the .500 […]
Louisville Bats 18, Toledo Mud Hens 4 (box) What should have been Sawyer Gipson-Long’s first full start after returning from the injured list turned into an absolute beatdown as Louisville mauled the Hens’ starter and then just going through the bullpen like there was no tomorrow. Gipson-Long’s velocity is still down in the 92 mph […]
Kenley Jansen needed little introduction when the Detroit Tigers signed the 38-year-old closer to a free agent deal back in December. He’s one of the truly great relievers in the game’s long history. The one year, $9 million deal was a pretty reasonably price for an all-time great even on the downside of his career. […]
The Tigers are happy to be home. They had an incredible weekend sweep against the Marlins, and with division rivals the Kansas City Royals in town for a three-game series, they were hoping to keep climbing in the AL Central standings.

Now, they open up the second half of the homestand with their American League Central rivals, the Kansas City Royals, coming into town. The Royals are currently tied with the Tigers in the […]
Well, considering the extent of Parker Meadows injuries after his collision with Riley Greene last week, this isn’t surprising. The Tigers on Monday moved the center fielder to the 60-day injured list with a fractured left arm as well as a concussion. The initial impact looked like Meadows, trying to veer away from Greene, who […]
Toledo Mud Hens 11, St. Paul Saints 8 (box) Toledo took the series, 4-3, against the St. Paul Saints on Sunday with an 11-8 win that ended on a walk-off grand slam. The Mud Hens scored seven runs in the ninth to rally back from a four-run deficit. Ben Malgeri led off with a solo […]
The Detroit Tigers might have the deepst group of position player prospects the organization has ever amassed at one time in the farm system. Certainly the farm years of the ‘84 Tigers teams may remain the best cluster of Tigers’ homegrown players to ever develop into the core of a team, but from Kevin McGonigle, […]
Coming off a sweep in Minnesota, the Detroit Tigers needed to right the ship with some home cooking.

The long-time ace and future Hall of Famer was moved to the injured list on April 4 with left hip […]
Toledo Mud Hens 3, St. Paul Saints 0 (box) Toledo’s pitching staff threw a two-hit shutout against St. Paul on Saturday, as the Mud Hens put up three runs in the fifth to secure the win. It wasn’t a high-offense day with just nine hits between both teams. Ben Malgeri and Gage Workman had multi-hit […]
