These guys again? Anyone else feel like this is 100 games in a row battling it out against the Rangers? Today we saw Tarik Skubal take on Dane Dunning (side note, but doesn’t Dane Dunning sound like the name of someone who invents a theory? The Dane Dunning Theory of Relative Pitch Physics or something…)

This has been beaten to death, but no evidence exists to prove Ohtani was not involved. I read the entire indictment. I think just about the entire thing was about Ippie moving money. But that could have just as easily been done with Ohtani’s approval as without his approval. What remains is: 1-It is less
Rochester Red Wings 2, Toledo Mud Hens 0 (box) Sort of painfully twisted for a Tigers affiliate to lose to the Red Wings on Tuesday night, but here we are. Devin Sweet and Mason Englert combined for a decent spot start, and the bullpen was outstanding. The bats just couldn’t come up with a key
It has been an awfully long time since Casey Mize has played a game in Comerica Park, and it was apparent this afternoon he was feeling the weight of his past performances as he wanted to come out and dazzle in front of a hometown crowd. The Rangers sent out Jon Gray, and it became
So, this season I’m going to be joining forces with Rogelio Castillo and Chris Brown from the Tigers Minor League Report. On Monday nights, we’ll do a quick review of the Tigers prospects and minor league system from the previous week, and touch on all the main stories of the day. This week, the conversation
If you had told me before tonight’s game that the Detroit Tigers would hold the reigning World Champion Texas Rangers to a single run, I would’ve told you, “Jeez, I can’t wait to see how we get shut out in this one!” And if you had told me that the Tigers would put 10 runners
The Tigers have claimed right-hander Ty Adcock off waivers from the Mariners, per announcements from both clubs. The Tigers had an open 40-man roster spot and won’t need to make a corresponding move. The righty has been optioned to Triple-A Toledo. Adcock, 27, was drafted by the Mariners in 2019 but hasn’t been able to
The Detroit Tigers remain at home this week within the comfortable confines of Comerica Park after splitting a four-game series with the Minnesota Twins this weekend. AJ Hinch’s squad won the opening and closing games, while the team was swept on Saturday’s doubleheader; nonetheless, the Olde English D kept its winning record intact. Next up
Toledo Mud Hens 16, Indianapolis Indians 6 (Sun)(box) The Hens had one more beatdown to hand out this weekend, and they did so on Sunday. The offense cranked out 16 hits to crush Indianapolis and take the series 5-1. Things popped off in the second inning. Keston Hiura led off with a single, Justice Bigbie
For most of Sunday afternoon’s series-concluding matchup with the Twins, things looked bleak. Bailey Ober dominated the scuffling Tigers’ lineup, and Jack Flaherty leaked a pair of early runs before settling into his outing. However, Javier Báez provided a spark that led to an eighth-inning rally as the Cardiac Cats came back to win and
The White Sox recently received some good news on the injury front, as GM Chris Getz told reporters (including 670 The Score’s Bruce Levine) that the prognoses on injured hitters Luis Robert Jr. and Yoan Moncada aren’t quite as worrying as the club initially believed. Per Getz, Robert may be able to return from the
Well this was absolutely not what the doctor ordered. The Tigers couldn’t hold off a Twins comeback in Game 1, and then failed to hold serve in the 12th inning to lose it. In Game 2, the bats were just atrocious once again while Matt Manning’s rare mistakes were hit hard. And so the Twins

Toledo Mud Hens 4, Indianapolis Indians 3 (F/11)(box) This one featured a really good pitching matchup as Keider Montero looked to defend home turf against perhaps the best pitching prospect in baseball in Paul Skenes. Montero was good, Skenes was fearsome, and neither factored at all in the decision nor allowed any runs. Instead this
