A detailed list of nope about the Detroit Tigers
The Detroit Tigers dropped their second extra-inning affair in the last four games on Saturday afternoon with a 2-1 loss in 10 innings at Comerica Park, tying the weekend series. The offense once again failed to show up and the bullpen simply did not have enough in it to hold on until the bats woke […]
Omaha Storm Chasers 11, Toledo Mud Hens 3 (box) Eduardo Valencia continues to swing a hot bat, but a bullpen day for the Hens did not go well. Things did start well, as Ben Malgeri led off the game with a double, and Max Clark smoked a drive to right for an RBI double, but […]
Casey Mize returned in fine form in this one, but the Detroit Tigers remain hamstrung offensively. The Toronto Blue Jays are having similar issues, but they pulled this one out in the tenth against Tyler Holton, and Louis Varland closed out the Tigers to even the series at a game apiece on Saturday afternoon. Saturday’s […]

The Detroit Tigers snapped a three-game losing streak on Friday night with a 3-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays in the first game of the home series this weekend. A strong pitching performance punctuated by a walk-off home run that finally gave the club a win in a close game. On Saturday, AJ Hinch […]
Beau Brieske got the start in this one as his rehab progression advanced to Triple-A. He gave up a run in the first, but tossed a clean second inning. Brieske averaged 95.9 mph on his fourseamer, and mixed in some good changeups in his outing. He looks fairly close to rejoining the Tigers. Will Vest […]
The Tigers came home from New York with their tails between their legs, hoping their fortunes would change with some home-cooking. An unexpected bullpen game (of sorts) with finally some strong pitching, a key stolen base and a well-placed line drive gave the Tigers a 3-2 victory in the opener of a three-game weekend series […]

Well, the question over the past two weeks was whether the Detroit Tigers could hold it together long enough to start getting some help back off the injured list. Suffice it to say it hasn’t gone well. Losers of eight of their last ten games, the Tigers are still only 4.5 games behind first place […]
Monday afternoon, Baseball America published their Mock Draft 3.0, featuring the latest intel and scouting reports for each team. The Tigers, who will pick 22nd this year, were linked to high school outfielder Trevor Condon in the first round. Condon hails from the state of Georgia and is a well known player in this high […]
Happy Friday, everyone! Well, it’s been a dismal week to be a Tigers fan, that’s for sure. They were swept by the Mets, which is the first time all season the Mets have swept anyone. But they’re home again, they’re facing the Blue Jays this weekend, and hopefully they have some wins ahead. If we […]
The Detroit Tigers finished their six-game road trip on Thursday afternoon with a 9-4 defeat at the hands of the New York Mets, sweeping them out of the Big Apple and giving the team just one win over that stretch and losses in eight of the last nine. Injuries, poor defense and an anemic offense […]
Omaha Storm Chasers 7, Toledo Mud Hens 6 (box) Sawyer Gipson-Long got the start, and after a few false starts coming off the injury list, is at least working regularly back toward full strength. He wasn’t good in this one, however. He gave up three runs in two innings of work. Konnor Pilkington took over […]
I would start this recap by talking about the importance of the Tigers avoiding a sweep, and how they need to come together to prove they are a better team than what we’ve been seeing from them, but that’s just stating the obvious at this point and the Mets are starting Nolan McLean, who totally […]

The Detroit Tigers let one get away on Wednesday after the offense once again struggled to get things going, spoiling a strong performance by the pitching staff. Alas, two runs were not going to get the job done that night, as the New York Mets used a seventh-inning run to tie the game and ultimately […]
Omaha Storm Chasers 3, Toledo Mud Hens 2 (box) Troy Melton’s rehab work went reasonably well for the Hens, but after building a slim early lead they couldn’t add on runs and the Storm Chasers avenged their rough loss on Tuesday. Melton’s stuff looked excellent and he mixed in five different pitches in this outing, […]
Despite the Mets’ dismal season record and poor performance this season, the New York club managed to trounce the Tigers on Tuesday. Wednesday night, the Tigers were hoping to get one back and save face a little. They’ve been having an awfully rough go of it lately, and the longer that lasts, and the more […]

The struggles continue for the Detroit Tigers, who opened up their three-game road series at the New York Mets on Tuesday night with a miserable 10-2 loss. Jack Flaherty only lasted 3 2/3 innings and gave up three runs, which was all it took to overtake the visitors’ anemic offense. The good news is that […]
Toledo Mud Hens 19, Omaha Storm Chasers 1 (box) The Mud Hens got a solid start out of Dylan File, but they didn’t need any help as they piled up the runs early and put it to Storm Chasers’ pitching all game long. Gary Jones first game as Mud Hens manager went quite well. Ben […]
After limping out of Kansas City bruised and full of more question-marks than The Riddler, the Tigers went to New York City to face the Mets, who have been terrible so far. Well, the questions kept coming as fast as the Mets scored runs in this one, with the New Yorkers besting the Detroiters by […]
The Detroit Tigers tend to keep their injury reports as quiet as possible. That makes it difficult to interpret how things are actually going with various injured players. Zach McKinstry was on the injured list for a few weeks for what was described as hip/abdominal inflammation. Turns out it was a Grade 3 oblique tear […]

The Detroit Tigers open up the second half of their six-game road trip on Tuesday night with a trip to Queens to take on the New York Mets. The team has played an ugly brand of baseball of late — and by “team”, I mean the Tigers, but the Mets have not been great either. […]
