Does Detroit Tigers’ owner Chris Ilitch watch any of the games? Does he pay attention at all? Does he even care about this team? These are probably all rhetorical questions, but they are still worth asking after his tone-deaf comments yesterday.

Resilience by the Detroit Tigers pitching staff might be the sole reason that their 2022 season has not gone from horrible to historic. Despite injuries to Kyle Funkhouser, Jose Cisnero, Andrew Chafin, Casey Mize, Matt Manning, and Michael Pineda, the team had gotten by, and even thrived in some respects, in the pitching department.
Draft month here at Motor City Bengals is coming to a close, and with the Detroit Tigers passing on a high school shortstop in last year’s draft, let’s take a look at a high school shortstop for this year’s class in Pittsburgh’s own Cole Young.
After Jonathan Schoop was in the midst of his best season since he was an All-Star with the Baltimore Orioles in 2017, the Detroit Tigers signed the then 29-year-old pending free agent to a two-year extension. At the time, it seemed like a good deal for the Tigers.
The 2022 season seemingly held promise for the Detroit Tigers. Unfortunately the failures, follies, and disappointments have started to stack up far beyond the pile of successes. Chris Ilitch’s team is now an organization wandering about semi-aimlessly in a fog. A really thick and soupy fog.
The Detroit Tigers made a controversial selection last year when they passed over a player many felt the team had coveted for some time in SS Marcelo Mayer. Instead, the Tigers would draft a high school right-hander by the name of Jackson Jobe, with Mayer going a pick later to the Boston Red Sox. If…
The Detroit Tigers have dealt with an incredibly abnormal amount of injuries this season, and it has led to a bunch of players getting more opportunities. Some of them haven’t taken advantage of their extra playing time, while others have. The latter are who we’d like to highlight in this article.
When the Detroit Tigers acquired Austin Meadows from the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for Isaac Paredes and a draft pick back on April 4, fans were ecstatic at the time. Detroit had added a much needed left-handed power bat to their lineup at the cost of an infielder who was stuck in a logjam.
The College World Series championship begins tonight in Omaha, as the Ole Miss Rebels and the Oklahoma Sooners will battle it out in a winner-take-all three-game series. While there probably aren’t any players the Detroit Tigers might take with the 12th overall pick in this championship series, there are still a few names that fans…
The Detroit Tigers have finally found their ace in Tarik Skubal. Yes, he has struggled in his last three outings, but he’s still the best and only healthy starting pitcher left from their Opening Day roster. So naturally they should trade him, right?

In just a couple of weeks we’ll all be celebrating the Fourth of July, chomping down on some burgers, kicking back some brewskis and watching some Detroit Tigers baseball. As the classic Chevy ad said, there’s nothing more American than “baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet.” And there’s certainly no more American holiday than…
How far would you go to achieve your dreams? When everyone around you, including your family, friends and even your own coach, are telling you it’s time to give up and aim for something a bit more “pragmatic” or “attainable,” what would you do?
Yesterday, I explained why the Detroit Tigers shouldn’t draft a pitcher in the first round of the upcoming 2022 MLB Draft. However, pitching is still a part of the game, of course, so they shouldn’t neglect it despite the pitching depth in the organization. As the old saying goes, you can never have too much…
The Detroit Tigers hold the 12th overall pick in the upcoming first-year player draft to be held from July 17-19 in Los Angeles. Currently there are two legacy players who are aiming to go one and two, Druw Jones, son of former Braves’ outfield Andruw Jones, and the aforementioned Jackson Holliday.
The 2022 MLB Draft is just under a month away, and the Detroit Tigers have the 12th overall pick. This is widely considered to be a position player heavy draft, especially at the top. Most of the top college arms in the class have recently undergone Tommy John surgery and have seen their draft stock…
Whether it happens right away or takes a little while, it’s always exciting when a rookie gets his first hit as a major leaguer. Now that Riley Greene has added his name to the MLB hit list, let’s recall how each of his current Detroit Tigers teammates (and some 40-man roster teammates on the injured…
Heading into this season, the Detroit Tigers weren’t likely to be thinking about drafting a shortstop like Zach Neto in this year’s MLB draft. After all, the club had just inked former all-star and MVP runner-up Javier Baez to a 6-year/$140 million deal to anchor the middle of the Detroit Tigers infield.
This season for the Detroit Tigers is already a lost cause. They are 12 games out of first place in the AL Central and 10 games out of a wild card spot. The offense is historically bad and has shown no signs of improvement. It’s June 18. If the Detroit Tigers aren’t going to make…
Heading into the 2022 season, I could finally see the path to the playoffs for the Detroit Tigers. Robbie Grossman found his power stroke last season and would continue his over-the-fence pop and on-base abilities, Jeimer Candelario was that 3-4 WAR third baseman we all thought he could be after leading the league in doubles…
