As the Detroit Tigers entered the All-Star break in 2026, they had salvaged what started out to be a terrible season, falling 16 games under .500 and 11.5 games behind the division lead. But since June 1st, they have been as good as any team in the league and pulled to within 4.5 games of […]
While there has been a lot of speculation about Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal being moved before the Aug. 3 […]
Before the All-Star break, I talked a couple of times about the number of walk-off wins, especially as compared to the number of Cubs who have saved a game in 2026. As I recall, both of those numbers sat at 10. Both of those numbers were unimaginably high in fewer than even 100 games. This […]
Even though the Detroit Tigers' strong play since the start of June has made it less likely Tarik Skubal will be moved, the Los Angeles Dodgers are floating around as a potential landing spot prior to the Aug. 3 deadline if a deal were to happen involving the two-time AL Cy Young winner.
What an odd game on an odd evening at Wrigley Field. The Cubs lost the series opener to the Tigers 8-6 in 10 innings, but there’s way, way more than just that to discuss. It began with a 30-minute rain delay in which there was… well, maybe a sprinkle or two, but no rain. In […]

The Detroit Tigers opened up their three-game road series against the Chicago Cubs on Monday night with a nail-biting 8-6 victory in 10 innings. It began with a half-hour rain delay and ended in extra frames, and in between the two was plenty of action and zaniness. But what is important is that the good […]
It took 10 innings about three and a half hours, but the Tigers beat the Cubs 8-6. After dropping the final game of their series against the Angels, the Tigers were hoping to have a good series against the Chicago Cubs, knowing they can’t really afford to lose multiple games in a row. To get […]

Here’s the good news: noted ‘professional hitter’ Gleyber Torres is back.
