The finale and rubber game of a three-game weekend series in Miami against the Marlins saw the Detroit Tigers play some shoddy defence, a starter suddenly fell apart, home runs were surrendered, and the Marlins won the series by taking the game 8-6.

There are a lot of things to say about Jackson Jobe, but it’s hard to find the right way to say them. Feelings about the young pitcher have been messy around these parts since the day he was drafted, and he hasn’t had much of an on-field opportunity to put his stamp on the situation.

So, as it turns out, while folks have been busy paying attention to the Braves, the Marlins have quietly been pretty good in the AL East. I say this only because the Marlins have perennially been a team predicted to end up at the bottom of their division, and when the Tigers rolled into tonight,

The Detroit Tigers took a punch to the gut this past week as the visiting Los Angeles Angels swept them in a three-game set, which included star two-way player Shohei Ohtani’s first career complete-game shutout. The Motor City Kitties are all but out of the race for a playoff spot following the three-game skid which

Thursday evening, MLB Network reporter Jon Morosi revealed that the Baltimore Orioles have expressed “interest” in Tigers starting pitcher Michael Lorenzen. Public-facing analysts consider Detroit all but certain to deal Lorenzen to a contender before the MLB trade deadline, but this is the first time it’s grown from mere speculation into a sourced rumor about

Over the last several seasons the Detroit Tigers’ win-loss record has been less than ideal, but one thing they’ve been able to do is develop pitching — specifically relief pitching. Sometimes it meant refining what was already there, sometimes it meant pulling one out of thin air. With each passing trade deadline, the Tigers tend

Toledo Mud Hens 5, St. Paul Saints 4 (box) The offense took advantage of eight walks and five stolen bases to win on Thursday night. The Hens went with a bullpen day and the offense struck first in the top of the third. Parker Meadows walked with one out and stole second base. Justyn-Henry Malloy

A forecast for thunderstorms Wednesday evening in Michigan prompted a preemptive postponement of that game to Thursday afternoon, and a straight getaway-day doubleheader was arranged between the Detroit Tigers and California Anaheim Los Angeles Angels. When the dust finally settled, Shohei Ohtani had the (pitching) game of his life, and added some sparks on offense

Late on Wednesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN reported that the Los Angeles Angels and Chicago White Sox had agreed on a trade for right-hander Lucas Giolito. Earlier in the day, the Angels had made it clear that they were no longer considering trading Shohei Ohtani after a 7-3 stretch pulled them within four games of

St. Paul Saints 9, Toledo Mud Hens 7 (box) Another night, another high scoring game, and another Saints victory. Jack O’Loughlin got the start and dominated the Saints for five innings while his offense built a lead. The very first batter of the game was one Parker Meadows, and he got things going immediately with

According to a report by Chris McCosky of the Detroit News, Tigers relief pitchers Jose Cisnero and Chasen Shreve have been drawing interest from rival teams as the MLB Trade Deadline approaches. It’s not especially surprising to see either of these players being floated as trade candidates— they’re on expiring contracts and Detroit is expected

St. Paul Saints 14, Toledo Mud Hens 7 (box) The first of six in St. Paul started with a pretty wild one. The Hens seized control of the game only for the bullpen to come unraveled, turning this into a rout for the Saints. Starter Bryan Sammons gave up a solo shot in the second,

The opener of a three-game mid-week series in Detroit against the Los Angeles Anaheim California Orange County Angels, less than a week before the trade deadline, featured a shaky start from a prized possession, a dramatic ninth-inning comeback, and an extra-inning loss by the Tigers, 7-6 in 10 innings.
