Seattle — It had to be heartening for lefty Tarik Skubal to watch his mentor and former teammate Matthew Boyd pitch Monday night. Not so much because Boyd dominated Tigers hitters for three scoreless innings, punching out five. But it must’ve been encouraging to see how sharp he was 15 months after he went through

Seattle — Collectively, the 2022 season has been a failure. That’s an unassailable truth. A Tigers team that was expected to at least stay near enough to .500 to keep things intriguing in the final months was wracked by injury and underperformance and fell out of contention before the summer even got hot. But it
We won’t sugarcoat it. This is a lost season for the Detroit Tigers, and has been for a while now. But believe it or not, it hasn’t been all doom and gloom for the 2022 Detroit Tigers. Yes, that’s right. In a season where the team will lose just shy of 100 games, there were…

Seattle — Javier Báez talks a lot about focus. When he’s able to stay focused in an at-bat, he says, he can usually find a way to do damage. Turns out, he can do damage when he’s unfocused, too. Just like he did in the third inning of the Tigers’ 4-3 win over the playoff-bound
SEATTLE — The Tigers are now on the clock. In two of the past five years, that meant Detroit had clinched the No. 1 overall pick in the ensuing MLB Draft. In this case, the Tigers are now on the clock, along with the Angels, for baseball’s longest stretch since a postseason appearance. Monday night’s
SEATTLE — Detroit Tigers right-hander Bryan Garcia lost his footing and took a tumble. In the fifth inning, Garcia threw a second-pitch changeup to Sam Haggerty.

The Detroit Tigers continued their winning ways late Monday night (technically, the game ended after midnight making it Tuesday morning over here on the East Coast, but who’s keeping track?).
