Indianapolis Indians 4, Toledo Mud Hens 1 (box) Beau Brieske returned to the mound in this one, but as you’d expect he wasn’t very sharp returning from the injured list after a minor bout with forearm soreness. Indy got to him for a couple of runs in the middle innings and went on to win
TORONTO — There was a time, not too long ago, when the Detroit Tigers envisioned a much different approach at the 2022 trade deadline — 6 p.m. Tuesday, less than two hours before they play the Twins in Minnesota. General manager Al Avila expected to add talent at the deadline. So did manager A.J. Hinch. FOR
Detroit — The Tigers are low on chips, ridiculously low. They do have two sizeable ones for Tuesday’s trade deadline, but I’m sorry, GM Al Avila should not be permitted to deal either. Rookie outfielder Riley Greene isn’t going anywhere, obviously. Top pitcher Tarik Skubal is the other big chip and also shouldn’t be going anywhere,
COMSTOCK PARK, MI – The West Michigan Whitecaps used extra-base power and strong pitching to defeat the Dayton Dragons 6-5 and earn a series split in front of 6,233 fans Sunday afternoon at LMCU Ballpark. West Michigan collected five doubles – one shy of tying their single-game high – as COMSTOCK PARK, MI – The
The Erie SeaWolves took the first five games of the series from the Reading Fightin Phils but fell 5-4 on Sunday at UPMC Park. The loss snapped the SeaWolves’ season-high six-game win streak. Simon Muzziotti opened the scoring with a solo homer off of Reese Olson in the first. Erie The Erie SeaWolves took the
TOLEDO, OH – As the Mud Hens looked to win the series over the Indianapolis Indians, Toledo would have a familiar face on the mound, today. RHP Beau Brieske got the call to the mound, after being sent down for a rehab assignment this week, from the Detroit Tigers. This TOLEDO, OH – As the
Toronto — These days right before the trade deadline are strange times for teams and players, especially for non-contending teams like the Tigers who are waiting for the inevitability that some of their players won’t be around after Tuesday. The Tigers, as we’ve reported, are expecting to lose one or two of their bullpen pieces. Teams
Toronto — The first three games of this series were spirited and competitive. Sunday, not so much. Blue Jays’ right-hander Jose Berrios took a lot of the starch out of Tigers, allowing only a home run to his brother-in-law in seven innings as Toronto won for the third time in four games, 4-1 at Rogers Centre. Berrios’
TORONTO – The pose from Javier Báez on his follow-through lasted long enough for fans at Rogers Centre to take a picture, if they weren’t watching his first-inning drive soar toward the upper deck in left field. It was just foul, despite Báez optimistically pointing fair, but it was hit hard enough for Blue Jays

It can go unnoticed, a rookie minor-leaguer’s progress. Especially when he is 14 months out of high school. Izaac Pacheco’s first year of professional baseball has been stunningly strong, given that, yes, he is 19 and only a year from leaving home and his prep days at Friendswood, Texas. Pacheco plays third base (mostly), bats
TORONTO — Detroit Tigers shortstop Javier Báez put his hands near his head, signaling his frustration, in the fifth inning. An errant pickoff throw, ruled an error, put a runner in scoring position, leading to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s RBI double and Báez’s visible irritation. The Tigers entered Sunday with 12 unearned runs over their past five games, and
Another bad day for the position players both on the field and at the plate produced a lifeless effort behind rookie Garrett Hill as the Tigers lost 4-1 to the Jays on Sunday. Jose Berrios got the start for the Blue Jays and he was strong in the first inning. With velocity ticking up above
While most of the attention surrounding the Detroit Tigers ahead of Tuesday’s MLB Trade Deadline has revolved around Tarik Skubal and a few bullpen arms, one name that hasn’t been mentioned too much is Robbie Grossman. Well, that has since changed.
Two weeks ago, the Tigers drafted a passel of players, 19 to be exact, and signed them. Now they have to figure out what to do with these plebes, all of them college players, all of them now playing professional baseball. Send them immediately to Single A? That’s one option after two weeks of initiation at

TORONTO — If there was ever a time to showcase the bullpen as Tuesday’s trade deadline approaches, the Detroit Tigers took advantage of it in Friday’s 4-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre. The Blue Jays’ offense, averaging the third-most runs per game in the majors, couldn’t hit the Tigers’ best bullpen
