Bless You Boys

This was one to forget. Joey Wentz got absolutely mauled in the first inning, and while Dane Dunning pitched pretty well, this might be the first game all year where the offense just seemed to give up. The at-bats were not very competitive once they were down. We had errors on Zack Short and Javier

Welcome back, Matt Manning. Just as the Tigers have had to bid adieu to Matthew Boyd for the remainder of the season, it’s a welcome sign to see Manning return and have a relatively solid first outing back. The walks were a bit higher than one might want, but we’re not going to be too

Along with the news that Tigers top prospect, infielder Colt Keith, was being promoted to Triple-A Toledo on Monday, the team’s representatives for the 2023 MLB Futures Game were also announced. Keith will play for the American League squad as expected, with Justyn-Henry Malloy joining him. The 24th edition of the prospect talent showcase is

Well this was an eventful one. Through three innings, the Tigers scored four runs and lost two pitchers, presumably to the injury list. Starter Matt Boyd departed in the first with an arm injury, and Will Vest followed him with a knee issue in the third. It didn’t stop the Tigers as Andy Ibáñez and

The Detroit Tigers dropped two of three to the American League Central division-leading Minnesota Twins in Motown last weekend, lowering the Motor City Kitties to 10 games under .500 and 5.5 games away from the top perch. It was a grand opportunity for AJ Hinch’s squad to make up some ground, but alas, the Twinkies

They bounced back on Sunday to split the series, finishing the first half

After a very tough start to the 2023 season, infielder Nick Maton was optioned to Triple-A Toledo after Sunday’s loss to the Minnesota Twins. The Tigers dropped 5 1⁄2 games back in the divisional race and without a major reversal in fortunes soon, this weekend series against the AL Central leaders could end up marking

With the series on the line, the Tigers snatched defeat from the jaws of victory against the Minnesota Twins on Sunday. The offense went cold against Bailey Ober after a brief outburst in the third, and a key defensive mistake from Nick Maton cost the Tigers late as the Twins scratched out an unearned run

Tonight’s game was pretty evenly paced, which isn’t an ideal thing to say when it’s the Tigers facing off against another mid-performing AL Central team, but these two clubs looked pretty evenly matched through the night. As an overview, Reese Olson was surprising, as he managed to cruise through most of the Twins’ lineup and

The Detroit Tigers outhit the Minnesota Twins, 7-6, on Friday night, but it was the AL Central-leading Twinkies that controlled things all night long. A pair of early home runs put the Twins out in front and they never looked back en route to a 4-1 win. Tigers starter Joey Wentz cruised through the first,

Things have turned around for the Detroit Tigers after a first half of June that saw the Motor City Kitties drop nine in a row and 10 out of 12 before a four-game series against the Minnesota Twins in Minneapolis. Since then, AJ Hinch’s squad took three of four from the American League Central division

Toledo Mud Hens 6, St. Paul Saints 0 (box) The Hens took a 2-1 series lead heading into the weekend after a rehab start for Matt Manning started the game. The right-hander was still a little wild, but he was also hard to hit. Manning tossed four scoreless innings, allowing just a single. However, he
