Guardians smother Tigers in Tarik Skubal’s return
The Tigers’ ace returned to the mound looking healthy, but a little rusty as well.

Tarik Skubal returned the mound just five weeks after hitting […]

Speaking […]

The Detroit Tigers made a little move after Thursday’s series win over the Minnesota Twins. They transferred Javier Báez to the 60-day IL to open a 40-man roster spot. That spot went to outfielder James Outman, who they claimed off of waivers from those very same Twins. Báez suffered a high ankle sprain sliding into […]
No rain, all shine, as Tigers homer their way to victory
Don’t call it a comeback, but the Tigers bounced back for an 11-0 victory over the Twins on Thursday afternoon.

The Detroit Tigers have been on fire this month, but on Wednesday night they cooled off a bit, taking their second loss of June against the Minnesota Twins at Comerica Park, 6-4.

St. Paul Saints 12, Toledo Mud Hens 1 (box) Justin Verlander was shelled for four home runs, and the Hens couldn’t put much together at the plate against Twins’ starter Mick Abel and the Saints’ bullpen on Wednesday. Well, Justin Verlander appears healthy, so I don’t know how much longer the Tigers can keep him […]

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 […]
