Detroit – When you don’t know what to expect, you make yourself ready for anything. Just ask Tigers lefty reliever Tyler Alexander. His appearances this year have been, to say the least, well-spaced – six days apart, five days apart; and when he came into the game in relief of Casey Mize in the fifth
DETROIT — Zack Short looked at the Tigers’ lineup for Friday’s game against the Royals and thought he’d been benched. His manager, A.J. Hinch, had told him a couple of days earlier that he’d be playing Friday. But when he skimmed the bottom of the batting order, his name wasn’t there. “I didn’t see it
The Detroit Tigers stumbled out of the gates in its four-game homestand against the Kansas City Royals, dropping the first game 6-2 on Friday night. Casey Mize was anything but mighty against the KC onslaught, allowing all six runs in 4 2⁄3 innings in his first rough outing after two sparkling performances to start 2021.
There has never been a greater emphasis or value placed on building a strong bullpen than there is right now. And this trio of rookie arms — J.B. Bukauskas, Ryan Hendrix and Garrett Whitlock — were all handed the ball on Friday night for their respective clubs and delivered scoreless outings. Bukauskas entered the D-backs’ 5-4

Casey Mize struggled in his 4th start of the season against a 1st place Royals team. Robbie Grossman provided an offensive spark with his second home run of the season. And Zach Short ripped a line drive for his first big league hit.
Detroit — On the first pitch he saw from right-hander Erasmo Ramirez, Miguel Cabrera slapped a hard ground ball into left field. On his second swing, a riding fastball from Ramirez shattered Cabrera’s bat. On his last swing, he drove a ball into deep right-center, one hop into the shrubs. It was 3:30 p.m. Friday and
Detroit — It’s something Brad Ausmus said often during his managerial tenure with the Tigers. And it’s as true now as it was then. When you aren’t hitting, when you aren’t putting runners on base, there’s no energy, no verve — it looks like your compete level is low. AJ Hinch didn’t know much about that during

The Detroit Tigers have scored just 17 runs in the last eight games. The team’s poor offense was exposed by the Kansas City Royals when right-handed starter Casey Mize didn’t keep the Tigers within striking distance. Recently, the starting rotation has been a bright spot through a rough stretch early in the season. But Mize gave up all six runs in a troublesome 6-2
Let’s start out with the obvious, here. The Detroit Tigers did not win the first game in their four-game series against the Kansas City Royals. KC, who are off to a hot start and inexplicably are winning the AL Central, just came off their first series loss of the season against the Rays, and they
DETROIT — Casey Mize put together an encouraging start to the season in part by getting his splitter, the wipeout pitch in his wide arsenal, to induce ground-ball outs. As his first-pitch splitter wandered over the plate for Royals hitter Ryan O’Hearn to line into Comerica Park’s right-field seats, it summed up Mize’s Friday night

Miguel Cabrera stepped into the batter’s box Friday at Comerica Park and completed the final hurdle in his return to the Detroit Tigers. The 38-year-old sustained a mild left biceps strain April 10 against Cleveland, sending him to the 10-day injured list. Right-hander Erasmo Ramirez — who traveled to Detroit from the alternate training site in Toledo to
DETROIT — The swing looked like typical Miguel Cabrera as the veteran Tiger sprayed line drives around Comerica Park Friday afternoon. The setting was different, from Tigers Minor Leaguer Erasmo Ramírez on the mound to a media relations person shagging balls in right field. The live batting practice was the final step in Cabrera’s progression
