We discussed Javier Báez recently, but he isn’t the only the long-term Detroit Tigers player in real need of a reversal of fortune. Matt Manning will mark his ninth year in the organization this July. Things haven’t been trending in the right direction for him, and the club has a lot of talented young pitchers
The hopes and dreams for the future of the Detroit Tigers are built around a core group of young players who have worked their way up through the ranks and have landed, or will soon land in Detroit. At the center of that core group are two players who stand out more than any others;
The Tigers have clearly been focused on upgrading their infield this offseason. They signed Gleyber Torres to take over second base. It’s only a one-year deal but they are nonetheless willing to bump Colt Keith over to first and Spencer Torkelson into a part-time role or maybe even the minors. They hung around in the
Spring Training has arrived and the full squad of 2025 Detroit Tigers are in camp this week preparing for their first Grapefruit League matchup of the season. On Saturday, the Tigers will welcome in the Philadelphia Phillies with Kenta Maeda getting the start at 1:05 p.m. ET. The offseason didn’t go quite as hoped, but

The big names playing with the Lakeland Flying Tigers in 2024 were Max Clark, Kevin McGonigle, and Josue Briceño, but quite a lot of other talented players started to make a name for themselves as well. Two of our favorite young rising pitching prospects were on hand, and while we’ve covered Rayner Castillo already, southpaw
One player we didn’t talk a lot about this offseason was Detroit Tigers shortstop Javier Báez. Another woeful offensive season battling injuries progressed to the point that even his defense suffered in 2024. His year ended quietly with arthroscopic hip surgery that he’s only now fully rehabbed. The Tigers went to the postseason with Báez
Though Alex Bregman signed with the Red Sox, the Tigers were one of the finalists. It was reported last week that Detroit had an offer of six years and $171.5MM on the table with an opt-out after year two, though there were some deferrals involved. This week, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press provides
In Part 1 of this two-part series we reviewed the setup to a September stretch run that ultimately ended up with the Tigers back in the playoffs for the first time in a dog’s age. We also looked at the games in the first half of the month which, for the most part, went pretty
Most of the top national sites for prospect scouting have already published their top 100 rankings, and the Tigers have been well represented on all of them. Fangraphs released their new top 100 on Monday, and the same is true as the Tigers place six prospects on the list. However, there is one new face
The Detroit Tigers are finally starting to see some improvements in their international pipeline. Catcher Enrique Jimenez may be the next to follow Keider Montero, Wenceel Pérez, and Josue Briceño to the major leagues or high into the national rankings. The Venezuelan born catcher was ranked the 32nd best prospect in the 2023 signing period
Alex Bregman has been signed with the Boston Red Sox for almost a week now, and yet no one seems ready to move on. Agent Scott Boras reached out by letter to the Detroit Free Press on Monday, claiming that the Detroit Tigers were indeed one of Bregman’s top choices and that Scott Harris had
Baseball is back! Perhaps that’s a slight overstatement, but pitchers and catchers reported for all clubs last week, full squads will report soon, and it has been truly delightful to start seeing photos pour in out of both Florida and Arizona. We’re seeing players sporting new jerseys, formerly injured players showing how well-healed they are
