Dillon Dingler is one of the catching finalists for the Detroit Tigers; Carlos Santana earns another nom for the Cleveland Guardians after winning the 1B award last season. Bobby Witt, Jr. represents shortstop, with division foes Maikel Garcia (Royals) and Jose Ramirez (Guardians) both nominated at third base....
The best thing about a back-to-back weekend is that you don’t have time to sit around and feel sorry for yourself. After another disappointing loss on Saturday afternoon in New Jersey, the Oilers get an immediate chance to redeem themselves in Detroit, and I’ll be looking for a much better effort. Yesterday’s 5–3 loss to…

Ahead of his final year under team control, Tigers ace Tarik Skubal has gotten plenty of attention as fans and clubs alike have begun to turn their attention towards the offseason.

Good morning, folks… We are in the fallow period of Texas Rangers news. In non-Rangers news, the San Francisco Giants are reportedly close to hiring Tony Vitello to be their new manager. The Detroit Tigers are reportedly contemplating dealing Tarik Skubal, who is eligible for free agency after the 2026 season. David Laurila has his […]
The Detroit Lions take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a game that could have huge implications on the NFC playoff race come January. The Lions have not lost back-to-back games in several years, but the 5-1 Bucs are going to put a tough test to that streak, especially given Detroit’s current injury situation. Let’s […]
Meet the Mets It is possible that the Detroit Tigers may make ace Tarik Skubal available in trade this winter and if they do, the Mets would be among the chief suitors. According to scouts and executives that spoke to John Harper of SNY, trading Skubal would be a tough sell in Detroit, which will […]
It’s another primetime game for the Detroit Lions in Week 7, as they settle into the comfy confines of Ford Field, welcome in 65,000 fans, and host the NFC-leading Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

On Saturday, we discussed the most important Detroit Lions players this week in order to come away from Week 7 with a key victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Now it’s time to turn that conversation on its head. The Buccaneers are a really, really solid team that has gone 5-1 to start the year. […]
If you’re a Detroit Lions fan looking for some vindication via officiating from the team’s Week 6 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, you won’t find any after the NFL fines for the week were revealed.

The Detroit Lions are facing a huge game on Monday night against a really good opponent. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are arguably the best team in football right now, and they’re led by one of the top favorites to win Most Valuable Player this year. But they are so much more than just Baker Mayfield. […]
On Thursday, NFL Films released its latest “NFL Turning Point” video as part of its online video series on ESPN. In an effort to promote the show, NFL Films posted a strange and frankly insulting video centered around recently suspended Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch. A few hours after posting the video, amidst backlash from […]
The Ottawa Senators will have to navigate life without their captain for up to two months as Brady Tkachuk underwent surgery to repair a right thumb injury. Tkachuk left Monday’s 4-1 loss to the Nashville Predators partway through the third period. While the team initially hoped surgery wouldn’t be required, a second opinion proved otherwise….
The Detroit Lions (4-2) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-1) were back on the practice field on Friday, getting some more work in ahead of their upcoming showdown on “Monday Night Football.” After returning Taylor Decker to practice on Thursday, the Lions were able to return Terrion Arnold on Friday, and while things are looking up, […]

One of my favorite aspects of the Detroit Lions, since head coach Dan Campbell and general manager Brad Holmes arrived in 2021, is their ability to respond to adversity. Even after a tough loss like the one in Week 6 to the Kansas City Chiefs, you can see the confidence this team has with the […]

In fact, we’ve already seen a handful of trades in the lead-up to the deadline. Like any team, the Detroit Lions could stand to improve their roster as they […]
It’s Lightning vs. Red Wings tonight at Little Caesars Arena. The Wings come into the game with a three-game win streak. It appears that John Gibson will get a shot at redemption. Really hope the team can play like they have been the last few games. Gibson needs to get his legs under him. It’s a long season and Cam Talbot is 38 years old. For what it’s worth, Mason Appleton skated with Dylan Larkin and Emmitt Finnie at practice on Thursday. A sign that perhaps Lucas Raymond is still heali...
Jon Heyman of the New York Post began stirring up the offseason pot on Thursday with a report claiming that the Tigers and star pitcher were $250M apart in extension talks. While no one doubts Heyman’s assertion that agent Scott Boras wants a contract in the $400-420M range, his claim that the Tigers offered less […]
The Detroit Lions and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will square off in a Week 7 NFC battle on “Monday Night Football.” Lions coach Dan Campbell and Bucs coach Todd Bowles have a long history together, dating back to when Campbell was a player in Dallas. “We’ve got a real good opponent coming in Monday night,” Campbell […]
Another swing and a miss for me in the bold prediction factory. After thinking Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff would throw for over 300 yards and three touchdowns, Goff finished with two touchdowns and only 203 yards last week. That doesn’t mean I have to give up making bold predictions. I’ll get one right this […]
