On Thursday afternoon, the Detroit Tigers tried to avoid a three-game sweep at the hands (and bats, and feet, and gloves) of the Cleveland Guardians. They almost did, but after a late comeback to tie the game in the ninth, Cleveland scored in the top of the tenth and held off the Tigers to win

For the 16th time this season, the Detroit Tigers will have a new starting pitcher. He is scheduled to take the mound Friday against the Chicago White Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field. The name is familiar: Daniel Norris. Norris pitched for the Tigers from 2015-21 and returned to the organization in late July on a minor-league contract.

Left-hander Daniel Norris is returning for a second big league stint with the Tigers, the team announced to reporters Thursday. Norris, who signed a minor league deal after being cut loose by the Cubs, will start tomorrow’s game for the Tigers. He’ll make at least two starts, tweets Evan Woodbery of MLive.com. The Tigers will
In a move that had been highly anticipated over the past couple of weeks, the Detroit Tigers and owner Chris Illitch announced the inevitable; that Detroit Tigers General Manager Al Avila had been relieved of his duties; citing lack of progress, specifically at the major league level, during year seven of his tenure.
TOLEDO, Ohio – A California native, Spencer Torkelson has already had quite a journey in his early professional baseball career. Torkelson began his career at Arizona State, where he hit a total of 54 home runs in his career. His 54 home runs put him at second in Sun Devil TOLEDO, Ohio – A California
The Detroit Tigers are looking to avoid a series sweep at the hands of the Cleveland Guardians Thursday afternoon, but that’s not what most of the fan base is talking about following an eventful Wednesday for the organization. No, I’m not talking about the rather lackluster call-up of Kerry Carpenter, who struck out three times
Everything went downhill — and fast — in 2022. The Detroit Tigers aren’t damned, but the organization has a lot of work to do. Owner Christopher Ilitch spoke Wednesday about the past, present and future of the franchise. He mentioned the word “progress” at least 20 times. It’s apparent, based on their 43-69 record, the Tigers
Decency has its place in life. Just not enough to keep trying to rebuild a baseball team when the footings continue to crumble. Chivalry has its limits. Christopher Ilitch has his limits, too, and on Wednesday afternoon, after seven long years of fire sales and wrong-sided trades and overhyped prospects and losing — lots and lots
DETROIT — For nearly two seasons now, A.J. Hinch has emphasized to his players the importance of focusing on winning that day’s game. Don’t worry about the past or look too far into the future. Don’t worry about forces outside of your control. Just focus on winning the game. In that sense, it isn’t a
Prospecting for baseball players is like prospecting for gold: lots of shiny objects, but more often empty pans. Al Avila, 64, was fired on Wednesday for too many empty pans and, in truth, not enough gold from the river. Seven years after the Detroit Tigers gave him the general manager job, they took it away.
Detroit — It had to happen, not just because the Tigers were losing too many games and too many players, and wasting too much time. GM Al Avila was fired because he lost the trust and patience of fans, media and, most importantly, the owner. It wasn’t necessarily a bold move by Chris Ilitch Wednesday, or

Johnny Kane sits down with MLB.com writer Jason Beck to discuss the next steps the Tigers need to take in order to move forward.
Detroit — For the most part, Christopher Ilitch delivered the news like you would expect from the CEO. Directly. Unemotional. “I’m looking for us to make progress each and every year and if we do that, ultimately, we’re going to accomplish our objectives,” he said Wednesday afternoon. “I felt our progress certainly stalled this season.”
