The Detroit Tigers have started their season strong after winning their first two games of 2021 against their bitter American League Central Division rivals, the Cleveland Indians, including a 5-2 victory on Saturday. Thanks to a strong start by newcomer Julio Teheran as well as some grueling at-bats for the Tigers offense, things are looking

Nothing explosive happened in this one. Instead, the Tigers executed well when needed, putting together tough at-bat after tough at-bat against Cleveland pitching. Meanwhile, starter Julio Teheran and the rebuilt Tigers bullpen were up to the task as they led the club to a 5-2 win on a nice Saturday afternoon at Comerica Park. Tigers

The Detroit Tigers got off to a great start to their 2021 season on Thursday when they snuck by the Cleveland Indians in a snowy Comerica Park, 3-2, on Major League Baseball’s opening day. Miguel Cabrera gave the fans a brief glimpse of what he is capable of with his two-run opposite shot to pace

One year ago today, Comerica Park and Major League Baseball’s 29 other ballparks laid dormant as the COVID-19 pandemic prompted stay-home orders across the United States. While we still received a 60-game season and an exciting, if unconventional postseason in 2020, today’s Opening Day felt a little extra special. For the first time since September

Over the course of a regular season, the Tigers will face off against Cleveland a whopping 19 times. In past years they have proven to be a bit of a nemesis for the Tigers, and a point of struggle and contention. This year, the Cleveland team looks a little different, missing one of their best

The Detroit Tigers designated outfielder Christin Stewart for assignment on Thursday, making room for lefthander Derek Holland, who was added to the 40-man roster prior to Detroit’s Opening Day matchup with the Cleveland Indians. The Tigers selected Stewart with the 34th overall pick in the 2015 MLB draft, and he rose quickly through the minors,

Baseball is back! It wasn’t the longest offseason in recent memory — going without baseball last spring was painful, y’all — but those winter months still seemed to stretch on all the same. Now, with the 2021 MLB season getting underway in just a few hours, it’s time to get acquainted (or reacquainted, for the

“Hello, is this thing on?” *taps mic* “I just have one thing I’d like to say… BASEBALL IS BACK!” That’s right, it’s Opening Day for the Detroit Tigers. Old man winter has retreated back into his bungalow (well, mostly) and the baseball gods have officially entered the chat. Spring training was fun for awhile, but

Welcome back baseball fans, Opening Day 2021 is finally upon us. After one of most tumultuous years in memory, a more familiar looking season lies ahead, and we can’t wait. There are still going to be strict limitations and guidelines for attendance, and the city of Detroit is warning fans off from tail-gating, so things

With only three games remaining on their Grapefruit League calendar, the Detroit Tigers entered their contest with the New York Yankees on Monday just looking to get those last reps in. Pitchers and hitters should be dialed in and conditioned for the season by now, so it’s more about the finer points. However, in the

Ah for the days when we had league MVP candidates wearing the Olde English D. A run at the big prize seems highly unlikely for any of the 2021 Detroit Tigers roster, but then again, stranger things have happened. In fact, they seem to be happening constantly these days. A ship getting stuck in the

Having closed out the last weekend of spring training baseball, we are a few short days away from the start of the season. The roster has been set and the team has two more warm ups before heading north. Let’s take a look at what folks are talking about. The first bit of news emerged

With Opening Day for your Detroit Tigers drawing close, the players and coaching staff are making their final preparations to begin the 2021 season.

The Detroit Tigers are in the midst of a lengthy drought in the international free agent market. Since dealing away shortstop prospect Willy Adames in 2014, and third baseman Eugenio Suarez that offseason, the club has struggled to land any high end talent. Outfielder Jose de la Cruz is one of those with a chance

The Detroit Tigers used an eight-run eighth inning to cap off a wild comeback victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday. We would normally use a word like “thrilling” to describe what happened, but the Tigers’ big inning featured seven (!) walks and a hit batter, with only three hits. In the middle of all
