The Detroit Tigers weekend series with Cleveland did not much provide a lot of highlights nor wins. The team’s run differential is -25, which is the second-worst in the league, and manager A.J. Hinch expressed his frustration with the team in one quote to the media yesterday.

The main weakness in an otherwise strong Detroit Tigers prospect pipeline, is the struggle to land quality talent in the high rounds beyond the first. Matt Manning, Alex Faedo, Casey Mize, Riley Greene, and Spencer Torkelson is quite a haul with first round picks for general manager Al Avila, but of course two of those
It was a wreck of a weekend for the Detroit Tigers. Injuries piled up, mistakes mounted and so did the losses. “We just got our ass kicked by the Indians for the third time in a row,” Tigers manager AJ Hinch said on Sunday after a 5-2 loss, which completed a 3-game sweep in Cleveland. If
The Germans have a word for it. OK, the Germans have a word for pretty much everything. But in this case, when it came to seeing the Houston Astros get what was coming to them for more than a year, I could only think of one perfect, beautiful German word: schadenfreude. The word literally translates
Just a week-plus into the season, suffice it to say, no one is celebrating their impending World Series title or already looking toward the offseason. In a way, with this season so new, everything feels like a surprise. But certain surprises are already standing out. Every team has one player who has been a pleasant,

We hear from manager A.J. Hinch after his Tigers suffer a three-game sweep in Cleveland. #Leinenkugels
The Detroit Tigers went 13-for-91 in their three-game series, a mere .143 batting average, and got swept by Cleveland on Sunday in a 5-2 loss at Progressive Field. Along with dropping four straight games, the Tigers (3-6) dug themselves into a deeper hole at the conclusion of the first of three legs in a 10-game road trip. After
Cleveland — Coming off three straight losses, with the offense scuffling, losing both Julio Teheran (shoulder) and Miguel Cabrera (biceps strain) in successive days just three games into a 10-game trip, it would have been easy for the Tigers to drag tail into the series finale against the Indians Sunday. Except their manager wouldn’t let them.
The Detroit Tigers continued their lifeless offense in the top of the eighth inning. They had a chance to even the score or take the lead, but squandered the opportunity with three consecutive strikeouts. Facing Cleveland right-handed reliever James Karinchak, Robbie Grossman took a leadoff walk and, after Willi Castro struck out swinging, stole second base.

The first two matches of the Cleveland-Detroit series were ugly, lopsided affairs in favour of the Cleves. Going into today, the question on the minds of the Detroit Tigers faithful was, Will the rubber-match contest be any different? In a word: sort-of. While the Ohioans’ score didn’t dabble in double-digitry this time, the Michiganders’ bats
Wilson Ramos took some ribbing in his offseason workouts after he signed with the Tigers to call spacious Comerica Park his home. “I was jogging a little bit with the guys working out with me and they said, ‘Hey, now you will get a couple triples in your career if you hit the ball in
The Rule 5 galaxy that delivered Akil Baddoo to Detroit exists, and has existed for generations, to keep MLB teams from stockpiling talent in the minors when a few of those talented players might, in fact, be sufficiently skilled to be working somewhere in the big leagues. The Rule 5 remains a long-odds, ridiculously inexpensive,
What do the Minnesota Twins make of Akil Baddoo, and his hot April start that nicked the Twins in a couple of early games at Comerica Park? They are, officially, happy — for Baddoo, who now is Tigers property thanks to the Rule 5 draft. But they clearly wish he were back in Minnesota’s system,
What the Tigers saw last December in Akil Baddoo was a profile taken from two sources of baseball insight. One was human: Jim Rough, a scout on the Tigers’ major-league staff, had jotted notes on Baddoo in 2018 as Rough kept tabs on big-league teams, as well as Single-A clubs in his locale. Rough could
Detroit Tigers veteran Miguel Cabrera had been dealing with soreness in his biceps, but the status of his health came to a breaking point in Saturday’s 11-3 loss to Cleveland at Progressive Field. Cabrera grabbed his left arm in pain after fouling away a seventh-inning changeup from Aaron Civale. He finished the at-bat by grounding out to
As we embark on a new season of Tigers baseball, let’s make this a year of appreciation for who they are, how they got here, and who they are becoming.
Cleveland — Not much good seems to happen to the Tigers in this city. It’s bad enough they’ve posted a 7-24 record at Progressive Field since 2017. Bad enough starting pitcher Julio Teheran felt tightness in his right triceps and shoulder while warming up here Friday night and will be lost until June at the
