The Minor League season has now been in progress for over a month. In the Detroit Tigers and the AL Central as a whole, we have seen the beginnings of prospect breakouts and downfalls alike. The lack of a 2020 minor league season means that we haven’t gotten eyes on many of these prospects for…
Last night, Issac Paredes graduated from the Detroit Tigers prospects list and Daz Cameron hit his first major league home run. All the good vibes spread to the minor leagues as Spencer Torkelson was a double shy of the cycle.
Friday night’s bout between the Detroit Tigers and American LEAgue Central Division-leading Chicago White Sox did not quite have the ending fans of the Olde English D were hoping for, as the good guys fell 5-4 in an extra-inning rematch between Tarik Skubal and Lucas Giolito. On Saturday, two familiar foes will toe the rubber
It feels like only yesterday (or perhaps last weekend) that I was writing a recap featuring the Chicago White Sox and a Tarik Skubal/Lucas Giolito matchup. I suppose that’s what happens when two teams face each other this often, but the outcome was a little different this time. As the Detroit Tigers kicked off their

Just last weekend, the Tigers went down 1-3 to the White Sox in a four game set in Chicago. Now, they’ll welcome the AL Central leaders into Comerica Park looking to return the favor. The Tigers have been playing reasonably good ball for almost six weeks now, but this is still going to be a
The team at MCB is covering the draft all month long. Be sure to check back every day for new content related to the 2021 MLB draft. Today, our series profiling the potential draft picks for the Detroit Tigers looks at Henry Davis, a college catcher out of Louisville.
Toledo Mud Hens 3, Louisville Bats 2 (F/10)(box) Like their parent club, the Hens pulled out a victory in a bullpen game on Thursday, but it was a close run thing. In the third inning, Christin Stewart walked, took third on a Chris Proctor single, and scored on a Zack Short ground out. No further
Thursday was an outstanding day for the Detroit Tigers, as they won their series against Seattle, and three of their four minor-league affiliates were victorious. We saw a pair of walk-off wins and a lot of strong performances from 2020 draft picks. Read about it all in the…
Few combinations of words inspire such little confidence in Detroit Tigers fans as “bullpen day.” With RHP Spencer Turnbull missing his turn in the rotation on Thursday with forearm discomfort, Detroit manager A.J. Hinch had to turn to his pen in an attempt to capture the series win over the visiting Seattle Mariners. As if
Kahlil Watson of Wake Forest High School in North Carolina is one of many talented prep shortstops in this year’s draft class. He is committed to North Carolina State, but is unlikely to reach campus with such high draft stock. Despite the flooded field, Watson is still projected to go in the top ten.

Bullpen games are always a bit of a mystery bag. Maybe it’s the diminished expectations, knowing that the team is in for a taxing day with a lot of their depth guys getting work, but it feels like often offenses fail to take advantage the way you’d expect. The Tigers have a pretty solid spot
The injury carousel keeps turning for the Detroit Tigers. Derek Hill made a great leaping catch at the wall in center field during the first inning of Wednesday’s contest with the Seattle Mariners. To no one’s surprise, he’s been moved to the injured list after injuring his shoulder in the process. Outfielder Daz Cameron has
Detroit Tigers fans were encouraged to see the statline from Matt Manning, who pitched his best start so far for the Toledo Mud Hens, and John Valente busted out the shades for the Erie SeaWolves. Matt Manning earned his first Triple-A win and Toledo hit four home runs in the 10-2 win over the Louisville…
A very mediocre outing from Casey Mize and the thin Tigers bullpen did them in on Wednesday night, falling to the Mariners 9-6 in 11 innings. Mize was quite erratic in this one. He put together a couple of strong innings, but also lost the plot at times, struggling to command the fastball, let alone

Our old friend Ernie Harwell once called Detroit Tigers closer Todd Jones “The Roller Coaster” for his up and down theatrics that regularly occurred before celebrating Tigers victories, or at times agonizing over tough defeats.
It remains a bit of a mystery how they’re managing this—thanks Eric Haase—but your Detroit Tigers continue to play respectable baseball. Obviously the starting pitching has been the biggest contributing factor, and that is going to be tested with Spencer Turnbull out and Jose Ureña just returned from an injured list stint of his own.
