The Tigers’ strategy for the 2022 MLB draft is cloudy. They haven’t picked lower than sixth since 2017 but now hold the 12th overall selection. The years in which there were only one or two likely choices are over, and the Tigers find themselves in a trickier spot in the middle of the draft order.

When you look up and down the Detroit Tigers’ lineup on a nightly basis, almost all of them have batting averages of .220 or below. They all have similar issues—nobody understands the concept of launch angle, nobody can draw a walk anymore, everyone strikes outs at an alarming rate, and nobody can hit with runners…
The Detroit Tigers are back on the schneid after dropping its third game in a row and seventh of their last eight games since running off a six-game winning streak.

It’s almost draft time and that means new prospects will soon enter the fold of the Detroit Tigers organization. It also means there will be some decisions to make regarding who to take based an a number of different factors. The Tigers pick 12th overall when the draft kicks off on Sunday, July 17th. Before
Riley Greene and Harold Castro did their best, but the Detroit Tigers couldn’t hang on to a two-run lead against the Cleveland Guardians Friday night and fell for the third-straight night in a row, 6-5. In our preview for this game, we said that nothing Drew Hutchison does is sexy. Boy, did that turn out
Here at Motor City Bengals we’ve been covering the 2022 MLB Draft for the better part of a month. The draft begins this Sunday at 7PM, so we figured we’d end our coverage with a fun mock draft or two.
It has been a rollercoaster ride for the Detroit Tigers so far in July, which included a six-game winning streak that turned into a four-game losing streak. They have now lost six of their last seven after dropping the opener for a four-game set in Cleveland Thursday night, 4-0, as Guardians starter Tristan McKenzie once
Toledo Mud Hens 10, St. Paul Saints 1 (box) Cody Sedlock, recently acquired off waivers from the Baltimore Orioles, made his first start in the Tigers’ organization on Thursday, and it went pretty well. More importantly, the offense pummeled Saints pitching with four home runs to win easily. RBI singles from Jamie Westbrook and Kerry
The only saving grace to this game was the length, clocking in well under three hours. The Tigers were absolutely baffled by Cleveland’s Triston McKenzie all game long, losing to them 4-0 in the first of a four game set. The matchup between Triston McKenzie and Elvin Rodriguez played out much as expected. The two
The 2022 MLB Draft is just three days away, and the Detroit Tigers are likely finalizing their draft board as we speak. Since they are picking outside the top 10 for just the second time in the last seven years, it’s hard to know who they will select with the 12th overall pick.
Over the last four weeks, the Detroit Tigers finally righted the ship and played more respectable baseball. But the struggles of veteran hitters who sank their season early haven’t really abated at all, either. Javier Báez has done more damage recently, and the arrival of Riley Greene has given them a solid leadoff presence. Eric
Toledo Mud Hens 8, St. Paul Saints 2 (F/7)(box) After finishing the rain suspended Tuesday game, the Mud Hens and Saints locked up for a seven inning affair in which a Kody Clemens three-run blast, his second of the day, powered Toledo to victory. The Hens got three solid innings out of Shea Spitzbarth, while
A day after Miguel Cabrera’s 40th career stolen base shocked the baseball world, the Tigers went for the four-game series split on a sultry summer afternoon in Kansas City. Alas, it was not to be, as the Royals ended up victorious with a 5-2 win, mostly because of a lousy fourth inning in which pretty
The All-Star Break is quickly approaching but the Detroit Tigers still have to wrap up a four-game series with the Kansas City Royals and deal with the Cleveland Guardians before they get some rest. The Tigers put an end to a four-game skid Tuesday night with a 7-5 win at Kauffman Stadium, and now they
St. Paul Saints 4, Toledo Mud Hens 3 (susp) This one was suspended in the bottom of the second inning with a runner on second, two outs, and Michael Mariot pitching to MLB veteran, Tim Beckham. They’ll wrap this one up tomorrow prior to Wednesday’s scheduled 7:05 p.m. EDT start. Erie SeaWolves 4, Binghamton Rumble
After a disappointingly dreadful doubleheader defeat on Monday, the Tigers tried to get back on track on Tuesday evening in Kansas City. A big seventh inning and some solid starting pitching saw Detroit do just that, winning with a 7-5 score, but not without some late-inning dramatics. Beau Brieske, who’s been showing some really nice
Miami Marlins’ shortstop prospect Kahlil Watson has been away from the team for disciplinary reasons since July 1 and rumor has it the Marlins could look to trade him at the deadline. Is this something the Detroit Tigers should look into?
Five years after finally tearing down the Dave Dombrowski-built Detroit Tigers in the wake of Mike Ilitch’s passing, the club isn’t supposed to be a bottom feeder any longer. Unfortunately, the way the 2022 season has progressed, general manager Al Avila will once again be in seller mode to some extent as the August 2
A short start and more wasted opportunities sank the Tigers in game two as Kansas City swept the doubleheader with a 7-3 victory in the nightcap. Alex Faedo has really struggled since hitting a wall in mid-June, and he just had nothing for the opposition in this one. With the offense again struggling to come
Michael Pineda gave the Tigers what they needed, but the offense was once again completely overwhelmed by Brad Keller as the Royals took the first of four by a score of 3-1 on Monday afternoon. Both starting pitchers got off on the right foot in this one. Brad Keller struck out Riley Greene and Javy
