José Ureña‘s start against the Cleveland Indians on Wednesday ended a lot sooner than he and the Detroit Tigers expected. With two outs in the top of the sixth inning, the 29-year-old was removed from the game after he made one pitch to Eddie Rosario, ending a strong start in which the right-hander tossed 5

Detroit — Tigers manager AJ Hinch rarely, if ever, has to coax or cajole his players to play. He does occasionally, however, have to fight with them to take a game off. He had two such conversations before the game Friday — one with outfielder Victor Reyes and the other with starting pitcher Jose Urena. Reyes was supposed
If Detroit Tigers manager AJ Hinch had to decide right now, he would skip Jose Urena’s next start — scheduled for Monday against the Milwaukee Brewers — because of lower right forearm cramping. Urena, 29, was removed from Wednesday’s 1-0 win over Cleveland with two outs in the sixth inning. He threw 82 pitches but started dealing with pain
Detroit — Baseball people have forever argued about the pros and cons of developing young players at the major-league level, as opposed giving them extended time in Triple-A. You kind of get the feeling this current edition of Tigers baseball is a clinical study on that topic. Whether it’s Rule 5 rookie Akil Baddoo playing
Due to my ineptitude to set Google reminders for tasks this week, I dropped the ball on writing the preview for Friday’s game between the Detroit Tigers and New York Yankees earlier in the day, so this is going to be rather abbreviated… So you’ve got the Yankees coming to Detroit for a three-game series
Spencer Turnbull threw the eighth no-hitter in Detroit Tigers history on May 18, 2021. Eric Haase was his catcher that evening in Seattle. Turnbull became the sixth Detroiter to twirl a no-no, while Haase became the eighth different Tiger to catch one. They were the latest pair of battery mates to travel down a path…
The Detroit Tigers entertain the New York Yankees this Memorial Day weekend after a series of games in the AL Central. These two teams have had not only a recent post-season history against each other but an extensive trade history/rumors that goes back to 30 years ago.
Detroit Tigers manager AJ Hinch recently was quoted in an interview regarding infielder Willi Castro, stating he has a ‘long leash to figure things out,’ in an article published by the Detroit Free Press. So far, the results for Castro have been abysmal, as he has slashed .193/.250/.303 across 156 plate appearances (39 games) in…
The Tigers’ season hasn’t been much to look at, in fact, you’re probably well-advised to avert your eyes instead. The roster has been reshuffled a few times and the offense has caught on as of late, but there’s no hiding the fact that the team is in shambles and still isn’t much better than their
COMSTOCK PARK, MI – The West Michigan Whitecaps weathered the storms literally and figuratively in collecting a 6-2 victory over the Lake County Captains in front a 2,500-fan sellout Thursday night at LMCU Ballpark. The Whitecaps collected 12 hits — six times their amount in their Wednesday win – as Dillon Dingler, Rey Rivera, Eliezer

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – A two-run triple from Isaac Paredes in the top of the sixth inning appeared to be sufficient offense for the Toledo Mud Hens on Thursday, but the Louisville Bats rallied with five runs in the bottom of the eighth inning as they held on for a 5-4 result at Louisville Slugger Field.
For all of 2020, we could only guess about how hitting prospects were progressing. With the return of Minor League action this year, it’s been very exciting to actually be able to check in to see how they’re swinging the bat. The 30 prospects featured below have been enjoying the return to game action more

The skies were cloudy for the Detroit Tigers‘ series finale against Cleveland on Thursday, but no snow was falling, with a gametime temperature in the 60s. Likewise, Miguel Cabrera wasn’t in the lineup, getting a day off instead. And Matthew Boyd couldn’t keep up with the ace he was facing. Yes, there was a lot
Detroit — It wasn’t as much about the call he was protesting as it was the need to release some of the frustration that had built up watching his team get no-hit for the first six innings. Tigers manager AJ Hinch gave an earful to crew chief Tim Timmons in the sixth inning of the Tigers’
