DETROIT – Gretchen Sanewsky knows how it feels to be excluded. When she was in middle school, Sanewsky and her family moved from Toronto to a small town in New York. According to Sanewsky, the transition wasn’t easy. “You wouldn’t think there’s a lot of difference between Canada and the United States but coming from
The Detroit Tigers made a bold declaration before the season: The rebuild is over! Only there was a teensy-weensy problem with that. It was blatantly wrong. The rebuild was clearly not over.

As the Detroit Tigers hit game number 100, reality has more than sunk in for most fans. The All-Star break has come and gone, and now is the time when moral victories — like a series win over the playoff-contending Padres — become a little more acceptable with the goalposts moving in. The next big

As the Aug. 2 trade deadline approaches, the Detroit Tigers are prepared to deal several members of their bullpen. The list of trade candidates starts with Michael Fulmer. The 29-year-old won’t deliver the best return of the group, since he comes with the label of a two-month rental, but his impending free agency means he is
Tarik Skubal was surprisingly mentioned as a potential Tigers trade asset leading up to the deadline. A day later, he threw a fit in the dugout. It’s unknown if those two events are connected, but players see everything. You can bet Ken Rosenthal’s reporting got back to Skubal, which suggested that even the 25-year-old ace…
