The Phillies announced they acquired reliever Devin Sweet from the Tigers and added him to the 40-man roster. Philadelphia also claimed reliever John McMillon off waivers from the Marlins and selected righty Alan Rangel onto the 40-man. The Phils dropped Kolby Allard, Yunior Marté, Freddy Tarnok, Luis Ortiz and Rodolfo Castro from the roster by running them through outright waivers. Sweet had
Detroit Tigers manager A.J. Hinch joins the “Days of Roar” podcast to chat with Evan and Mark. Hinch talks about the fans in Detroit, building a culture for the team over the past four seasons, players buying into team philosophies, the opener-bulk reliever pitching strategy after the trade deadline, the postseason run, and how the
The Tigers declined their $3.1MM option on Casey Mize. That’s a procedural transaction, as Mize does not have the requisite six years of service to become a free agent. He remains under arbitration control and is projected by MLBTR contributor Matt Swartz for a $2MM salary. Detroit also outrighted Bligh Madris, Ryan Vilade and Bryan Sammons off the 40-man
There were no real surprises this afternoon as the Tigers reinstated Javier Báez, RHP Sawyer Gipson-Long, RHP Alex Faedo, and RHP Brendan White to the 40-man roster. All four ended the season on the 60-day injured list and had to be activated to the roster today or released. The Tigers also declined their 2025 option
As the offseason gets underway, there’s rightly a lot of talk about building up the pitching staff, as well as the crucial mission of finding some right-handed thump for the lineup. The catcher situation isn’t foremost in anyone’s mind, but the Detroit Tigers options at that key position are probably getting plenty of thought from

So this offseason, we’ll be doing a weekly recap of the major bits of baseball news and notes that you might have missed. This way you can stay up
Today we’re going to play a little thought experiment in the Friday Open Thread, and we’re going to fantasy cast the Tigers’ 2024 season. Now this gives a pretty broad allowance to cast whoever you want for players, managers, team owners, whoever you want. If you’re feeling bold, you can even decided to cast a
This offseason the deadline for major league clubs to finalize their 40-man rosters in advance of the Rule 5 draft appears set for November 19. Scott Harris, Jeff Greenberg, and their staff have a few tough decisions ahead of them. With an active roster that just made their first playoff run, and a strong farm

Hinch’s genius, Tarik Skubal’s Cy Young campaign, Spencer Torkelson’s continued struggles and many more topics about the Tigers. He also shares insight into his broadcasting
Detroit Tigers’ slugger Kerry Carpenter had a good, but certainly also a very mixed season in 2024. His performance in the club’s first postseason run in a decade was a perfect microcosm as enormous success was undercut by injuries. When last seen on the field, the 27-year-old outfielder was busy establishing himself as a postseason
If you’re still wondering how the Detroit Tigers made an incredible, improbable run to the playoffs in 2024, the answer can be summarized for the most part in one word: Pitching. The Tigers’ pitching, both from the rotation and the bullpen, was among the major league leaders in just about every important metric that you
Reports from earlier today removed a couple of names from consideration as the next White Sox manager, though the team’s search continues to be seemingly pretty fluid. Guardians bench coach Craig Albernaz is a new name in the mix according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post (links to X), while interim manager Grady
The Tigers enjoyed an incredible late-season surge and rode a strong September to not only an 85-win campaign but a playoff berth that brought them within one game of their first ALCS appearance since 2013. With a bona fide ace in Tarik Skubal and a core of talented young hitters like Riley Greene, Kerry Carpenter,
The Tigers had interest in right-hander Will Warren during their trade talks with the Yankees this past summer, the New York Post’s Jon Heyman reports. The two clubs reportedly had a provisional agreement involving Jack Flaherty relatively close to being completed before New York backed out due to concerns over Flaherty’s medical records, though it
Baseball is a lingo-heavy game. There are roughly 100 different phrases an announcer might pull out to describe a home run, and even more to colorfully contextualize a catch (ice cream cone, anyone?) or a throw (frozen rope!). With so many options to choose from, everyone is bound to have a favorite. Something that just
Riley Greene had an excellent 2024 season at the plate, taking the next step toward being a true star hitter in the league. He mashed 24 home runs and posted a fine.348 on-base percentage while making his first All-Star Game. He stood out even more on the defensive side of the game. The 24-year-old outfielder
