LAKELAND, Fla. — Amid the quiet of TigerTown’s back fields, the sound was noticeable from Spencer Turnbull as he released his first pitches against hitters since June 2021. It wasn’t as a grunt, but it was louder than the heavy breathing of a pitcher finishing a throwing session in the Florida sun. There was an
In addition to every out-of-market regular-season game, MLB’s streaming service gives subscribers the ability to watch select Spring Training games, live online or on their favorite supported devices. FRIDAYThe Red Sox will get a tune-up for the MLB portion of their spring schedule when they take on the Northeastern Huskies at 1:05 p.m. ET in
We’re a bit partial to FanGraphs around here. There are plenty of good sources for national prospect news, but none go so deep into their methodology as FanGraphs consistently does. So their top 100 prospect list, as well as their individual reports on each team, are a highlight of the preseason. We’ve already seen the
LAKELAND, Fla. — The first-pitch slider was pulled foul as Matt Wisler settled into his first session against hitters as a Tiger. There was no mystery that pitch was coming, but the way he throws it, it doesn’t matter. The next pitch, too, was a slider. This one, however, was slower with more of a
As the new baseball season approaches, we have plenty to look forward to. Even if the team may not be stacked with All-Stars (yet, though who knows what surprises await), there will be exciting moments, plenty of wins, and most importantly, we will get to watch the final major league games of Miguel Cabrera. As
After spending most of his career in right field and spending much of 2022 in center, it’s possible the reigning AL MVP will be taking reps in left field this spring. Yankees manager Aaron Boone tells reporters, including MLB.com’s Bryan Hoch, that Judge playing some left field is “on the table” for this spring. Joel
LAKELAND, Fla. — The sun was shining on the practice fields at Tigertown on Tuesday morning. Still, if you blinked, you might have been carried back in time for a second as Alan Trammell stepped to snare a hard-hit ball in batting practice on the bounce. Riley Greene, who hit it, had to smile. Minutes
This time last year, outfielder Kerry Carpenter was an afterthought on most Tigers’ prospect lists. A below average defender who had shown decent bat to ball skills and some power, but little in the way of plate discipline, the Tigers 19th rounder in 2019 was not on the radar as a breakout candidate. 513 plate

LAKELAND, Fla. — Scott Harris worked the waiver wire all offseason, save for his wedding and honeymoon, in his first months as Tigers president of baseball operations. He lit up his phone with texts and calls to other executives, talking trades. He pitched the Tigers’ vision to prospective coaches, front-office assistants and free agents, all
LAKELAND, Fla. — Miguel Cabrera isn’t looking for farewell gifts for his final season. He isn’t looking for emotional ceremonies with longtime foes or former teammates at various stops on the Tigers’ schedule. “It’s nice if they do something. It’s nice if they don’t do it, either,” Cabrera said on Monday morning. “Some kind of
Ok we haven’t done this in a while. Writers get rusty after a long winter just as players do, but we’re firing up the ship to cover another scintillating season of Detroit Tigers baseball. Oh, did that sound like sarcasm? Actually, I think most of us are looking forward to seeing the Tigers direction under
Few teams in baseball have gone through as many changes as the Detroit Tigers over the past six months. So it feels strange that they enter spring camp without any major alterations to the likely active roster. There are plenty of new faces, but other than the ballpark and the game’s ruleset, the 2023 edition
