The Colorado Rockies are visiting Detroit this weekend, and there’s more than just Detroit Tigers fans celebrating Miguel Cabrera’s 3000th hit in the forecast for Comerica Park. In fact, the weather Friday night in Detroit doesn’t look all that promising at the moment, although the rest of the weekend looks like it will improve and…
The Detroit Tigers entered the 2022 season with optimism when it came to their pitching staff. The homegrown trio of Casey Mize, Tarik Skubal, and Matt Manning looked to build off the improvements they made toward the end of 2021. Eduardo Rodriguez was handed a five-year, $77 million contract to headline the new rotation. And…
The eyes of nearly every Detroit Tigers fan were trained on Miguel Cabrera against the New York Yankees on Tuesday night, and they witnessed him inch closer to the 3,000 hit milestone. Cabrera notched his 2,996th career hit in the bottom of the second inning, taking a 3-2 slider from Yankees ace Gerrit Cole and…
While the Detroit Tigers at least got some good news about the status of Matt Manning’s shoulder this week, if you think the team is among the most injury-bitten teams in MLB, your gut’s not wrong.
It was the first full week of action for all four Detroit Tigers full-season minor league affiliates, and there’s plenty to talk about, including the usual buffet of strong individual performances and dramatic team wins.
Spencer Torkelson started making a name for himself in his freshman year at Arizona State, where he hit 25 home runs, and broke Barry Bonds’ record for long-balls as a freshman. When COVID-19 cut his 2020 season short, Tork had already compiled 54 home runs (only two shy of breaking the program’s record) in 129…
Detroit Tigers hitting machine Miguel Cabrera stands merely five knocks away from baseball immortality. The coveted 3000 Hits Club is sitting there waiting to coronate Cabrera as it’s newest member. It’s been a long road for the to get here, and one worthy of celebration.
This off-season’s big free-agent deals and trades officially closed the book on the Detroit Tigers rebuild. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t still focusing on the farm system. Spencer Torkelson will soon graduate off prospect lists, and Riley Greene will likely follow suit once he returns from his foot surgery. But even with those graduations,…
Whenever the New York Yankees roll into Detroit, I always go back to the game in 2017 where Miguel Cabrera fought Austin Romine, the benches cleared THREE times, and eight different players and coaches were ejected.
Injuries have been coming in mounds for the Detroit Tigers this season. During spring, they were forced to maneuver around injuries to Andrew Chafin, Kyle Funkhouser, Jose Cisnero, and Riley Greene. Now, they find themselves with another pile of injuries to deal with between Javier Baez, Casey Mize, and Matt Manning.
Detroit Tigers outfield prospect Parker Meadows has always been tremendously talented. He was a strapping 6-foot-5, 205-pound outfielder coming out of his Georgia high school, earning future above-average or better grades for his arm, defense, raw power, and speed.
Detroit Tigers designated hitter Miguel Cabrera, after a three-hit performance Thursday night, finds himself with 2,994 career hits and inching closer to the magic 3,000 hit milestone, which would tie him with Roberto Clemente for 32nd on the all-time list and just seven away from fellow Tiger legend Al Kaline.
As a part of the new Collective Bargaining Agreement, the player’s association and the league agreed to expand MLB active rosters from 26 to 28 players to allow their pitchers to stretch out and account for any injuries that might take place due to the shortened spring training. For the Detroit Tigers, though, it will…
If all goes according to plan there will be more important homers in the career of Detroit Tigers rookie Spencer Torkelson. Clutch walk-off drives, All Star Game shots, pennant race blasts in September, and ultimately historic World Series bombs that make legends. Those will all hopefully be part of Torkelson’s script in a Detroit Tigers uniform.
All things considered, this has been a pretty fun start to the season for the Detroit Tigers. Opening Day featured a stunning game-tying home run from Eric Haase and then a historic walk-off hit from Javier Báez. Then Báez came up big again with a late two-run blast last night.
Last weekend didn’t just bring us Opening Day for the Detroit Tigers, it also marked the beginning of the minor league baseball season. In fact, because of the lockout-induced delay to MLB action, the Toledo Mud Hens actually began their season before the Tigers.
After the Detroit Tigers had the fourth-highest payroll in 2016 but held last place in the AL Central, the organization decided it was time for a full reset. It involved trading high-end talent with large contracts in exchange for prospects and lasted over the two seasons that would follow; trading players like Justin Verlander, Ian…

Christmas Eve and Opening Day. Maybe New Year’s Day for some. The WWE Royal Rumble for me. No other day like it. A day filled with wonderment and hope and that unique feeling of anything is possible. The air smells fresher. Food tastes better. Fellow baseball fans give a nod to each other when they…
