The 2023 Major League Baseball amateur draft is set to begin on Sunday night in Seattle, Washington, to kick off the annual selection of top prospects from around the nation — both at the high school and college levels. This year’s draft class is packed with talent at the top of the order and the

Starting tonight, the 2023 amateur draft will give Scott Harris and his new scouting leadership their first crack at making big improvements in their talent pipeline. The Tigers are sitting in a really nice position this time around. They finished with the sixth worst record in 2022, but the inaugural draft lottery went well and

Matt Manning pitched 6 2⁄3 innings of no-hit ball, followed by Jason Foley for an inning and a third, before Alex Lange closed out the ninth to give the Tigers a 2-0 no-hit victory over the Toronto Blue Jays at Comerica Park on Saturday.

Well we had fun for a little while. On Friday night after the Tigers’ drubbing at the hands of the Toronto Blue Jays, Evan Petzold of the Freep reported that the club would finally be designating veteran infielder Jonathan Schoop for assignment on Saturday. The move corresponds with outfielder Riley Greene’s return from the 15-day

One very bad, no-good inning sank the Tigers in game 1 of their final series of the first half, but they didn’t play the other eight innings well enough to win either. The Tigers did not do much of anything well on Friday night, with defensive mistakes and poor at-bats scattered throughout their performance. After

The Detroit Tigers were bested in a three-game series against the Oakland Athletics this week at Comerica Park, dropping two of three to the lowly American League West division cellar-dwellers in the penultimate set ahead of this year’s All-Star Game.

Louisville Bats 9, Toledo Mud Hens 5 (box) The Hens didn’t win on Thursday night, but there was plenty of good in the results. Riley Greene played center field most of the game and he crushed a solo shot to center field in the fifth. Based on A.J. Hinch’s comments on Thursday, Greene will likely

We had a little exchange last night in our BYB Slack channel. It went a little like this. Peter K: I’m convinced [the Tigers] get swept tomorrow. Me: They better not get swept tomorrow. I’m recapping that game. Well, in the finale of a three-game series in which Oakland beat the Tigers in a low-scoring
