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, […]
Detroit Tigers head home to host Seattle Mariners for 3-game series
Suddenly, being a Detroit Tigers fan is fun again! Who knows how long it will last, but the Olde English D is coming off a three-game sweep of the best team in the American League, the Tampa Bay Rays — at Tropicana Field, no less. AJ Hinch and Co. look to keep things rolling back […]
Izaac Pacheco homers twice in Erie victory, Witherspoon struggles in Lakeland
Toledo Mud Hens at Iowa Cubs (postponed) They’ll play two on Friday starting at 5:38 p.m. ET after they were rained out on Thursday. Erie SeaWolves 5, Richmond Flying Squirrels 1 (b0x) Carlos Peña and the SeaWolves bullpen pitched a gem while their power at the plate produced enough runs to provide a nice cushion. […]
Max Clark and Eduardo Valencia homer in Hens romp, Andrew Sears rehabs in West Michigan
Toledo Mud Hens 10, Iowa Cubs 2 (box) Max Clark homered for the second straight day and the Hens crushed the Cubs again with a strong effort from the bullpen as well. Troy Watson made a short start and did quite well against a pretty good Cubs lineup. He blanked them on three hits and […]
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 […]

Detroit Tigers News: Tarik Skubal rehab, trade rumors, MLB CBA, Elly De La Cruz, Dodgers
Happy Wednesday everyone, and it is indeed a happy day because the Tigers have won two games in a row, Jack Flaherty had a shutout, and no matter what happens today, they have won their series against the Rays. It feels good to be watching fun baseball again! Of course, this only muddies the water […]
Detroit Tigers go for sweep against Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday
Don’t look now, but the Detroit Tigers are undefeated in June after their 8-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field on Tuesday night. Sure, the month is only two days old, but the Motor City Kitties have already scored as many runs (18) over the past pair of games as they did […]
Mud Hens crush Cubs as Justin Verlander rehabs
Toledo Mud Hens 16, Iowa Cubs 1 (box) With Justin Verlander on the mound, the Mud Hens’ offense honored their famous temp by absolutely mauling Cubs’ pitching on Tuesday. Verlander, sidelined after one start this spring with a hip issue, looked pretty good. He had no trouble at all with the Cubs, scattering three singles […]
Tigers swinging hot bats in shutout win over Rays
The Tigers are on a roll with a 8-0 victory over the Rays on Tuesday night. It’s unclear what has gotten into the Tigers, but I’m not mad at it, and I don’t think any of their fans are either. While the Tigers did cut it very close in Monday night’s game against the Rays, […]

Tigers try to make it two in a row against Rays on Tuesday
The Detroit Tigers opened up June with a white-knuckle 10-9 win over the Tampa Bay Rays in St. Petersburg, as one of the worst teams in the majors took down the top squad in the American League. AJ Hinch’s squad went wire-to-wire in the victory, but the team nearly collapsed in characteristic fashion in the […]
Tigers offense comes alive in tight win over Rays
The Tigers collected a rare W tonight in their 10-9 win over the Rays. It’s no secret that the Tigers have had a rough go of it over the past month. They just finished being swept by the White Sox, and the last thing anyone wanted to do after that was face the top team […]

Detroit Tigers head south to take on Tampa Bay Rays this week
The Detroit Tigers ended May in a most miserable fashion, falling to the Chicago White Sox on the road, 2-1, to complete the sweep while finishing the month with just six wins in 28 tries. I have nothing further to say on the matter. On Monday, the team heads to Florida to take on the […]
Gleyber Torres continues rehab with Mud Hens
Columbus Clippers 6, Toledo Mud Hens 4 (box) Dylan File was rocked for four runs early in this one, and though they tied the game, the bullpen eventually let it get away against the Cleveland Guardians’ Triple-A affiliate. Sound familar? File gave up a leadoff homer to Cooper Ingle to start the game, and the […]
White Sox 2, Tigers 1: Another early lead withers and dies
Rinse and repeat. Keider Montero was brilliant on Sunday, but the Tigers’ offense did nothing after scoring a run in the first. An early hook and a brutal performance from Drew Anderson blew the game late, and the Tigers have now lost 21 of their last 25 games. The kitties jumped out to a slim […]

Game 60 Preview: Tigers hope they can prevent a White Sox sweep on Sunday
It is a terrible time to be a Detroit Tigers fan, clear and simple. After a 7-1 loss to the Chicago White Sox at Rate Park on Saturday afternoon, the team has just six wins in May and is burying themselves in the league cellar before summer even begins. On Sunday, AJ Hinch will send […]
Kerry Carpenter and Gleyber Torres rehab in Toledo, Gipson-Long strikes out eight
Columbus Clippers 3, Toledo Mud Hens 1 (box) Sawyer Gipson-Long posted his best outing of the season, but the Hens’ bats slumbered on Saturday. The right-hander has been up and down since rehabbing a preseason injury, and is still not far removed from rehabbing the Tommy John surgery that cost him the 2024 and most […]
White Sox 7, Tigers 1: The beatings continue, morale has not improved
On Friday night, the Detroit Tigers accomplished the feat of giving up a walkoff loss in seven straigth road series. Per Elias Sports Bureau, they joined the 1992 Chicago White Sox as the only two teams to manage this since expansion began back in 1961. Surely, such weirdness would satisfy the baseball gods and lead […]

Game 59 Preview: Tigers try to tie up weekend series at White Sox on Saturday
The Detroit Tigers’ struggles in the late innings continued on Friday night when they dropped the weekend series opener against the Chicago White Sox at Rate Park, 4-3, in extra innings. Troy Melton gave his team seven strong innings for a quality start and Will Vest got credit for holding a 2-1 lead through the […]
Thayron Liranzo homers again, while Kerry Carpenter rehabs in Toledo
Columbus Clippers 10, Toledo Mud Hens 7 (box) The Hens offense had a good night, but Carl Edwards Jr. and the Hens bullpen did not. Edwards Jr. is being stretched out as a starter for whatever reason. Probably because Scott Harris and Jeff Greenberg liked him as a Cubs reliever nearly a decade ago. Anyway, […]
