Chicago — Regret is the wrong word. “Yeah, that’s too strong,” Tucker Barnhart said before Sunday’s game against the White Sox. “But it makes you wonder.” After hitting exclusively from the left side of the plate since 2019, Barnhart decided in spring training to go back to hitting from both sides, which he did for the
After a deeply quiet trade deadline, the writing seemed to be on the wall, and it didn’t take long after that for the moment many have been waiting several seasons for: the ousting of Al Avila. While Al is, by all accounts, a wonderful guy and it’s hard to celebrate anyone getting axed, the simple
It has been a rough week for the Detroit Tigers, who dropped their sixth-straight game on Saturday night to the Chicago White Sox in a 6-4 loss on the road. Matt Manning regressed a bit in this one after tossing a couple of gems upon his return from the injured list, and despite a flurry

Chicago – He knew the consequences. He just didn’t care. Making the point that he needed to make was worth taking an ejection for. “In a game like that, I’m going to defend the guys,” Tigers manager AJ Hinch said after he was ejected on a controversial replay ruling in the seventh inning that precipitated

Matt Manning’s command wasn’t as good as last time out, and the Sox nickel-and-dimed him to death while the Tigers’ offense couldn’t build on an early break as they lost 6-4 on Friday night. The Tigers had a chance to get out to a quick start. With one out, Victor Reyes and Javier Báez each

Chicago — Like a lot of things he does, Riley Greene’s ability to self-assess and take accountability is beyond his years and experience level. Going into Saturday’s game he’d struck out 40 times and walked just twice in his last 108 plate appearances covering 24 games. His slash-line over that stretch was .221/.241/.356. In terms of
Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal could be out for awhile, especially after the latest injury update given by manager AJ Hinch. Skubal pulled himself from a recent start with elbow soreness, and for good reason.
X-rays were negative on Luis Robert’s left wrist, as the White Sox outfielder has been deemed day-to-day with a sprain. Robert suffered the injury on a stolen-base attempt in the bottom of the sixth inning in Friday’s game, and was replaced in center field for the top of the seventh.
