The dominant feature of Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal is his screaming fourseam fastball. We say “screaming” because throughout his run through the minors and his 2020 debut, the pitch featured superb, high-efficiency backspin that gave it above average vertical and horizontal movement both. Combined with premium velocity for a southpaw, this is the weapon
The main weakness in an otherwise strong Detroit Tigers prospect pipeline, is the struggle to land quality talent in the high rounds beyond the first. Matt Manning, Alex Faedo, Casey Mize, Riley Greene, and Spencer Torkelson is quite a haul with first round picks for general manager Al Avila, but of course two of those
The first two matches of the Cleveland-Detroit series were ugly, lopsided affairs in favour of the Cleves.

There was a baseball game played in Cleveland tonight, and the Detroit Tigers did not win it. A rough night to say the least, the Indians broke out for a 11-3 victory thanks to five mammoth home runs. Meanwhile, the bats of the Tigers can’t seem to figure out how to turn the parking break
Fears about Julio Teheran were confirmed on Saturday, as the Detroit Tigers placed the veteran starting pitcher on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to April 7, with what is described as a right shoulder strain. In his place, top relief prospect Alex Lange has been recalled from the Toledo alternate site to take his place.
The Detroit Tigers announced today that Julio Teheran will be on the DL with a right shoulder strain and that reliever Alex Lange will get the call up from the taxi squad and join the team down in Cleveland.
Well Tigers fans, Friday night’s game was a bit of a bummer as Julio Teheran had to be replaced at the last minute by fellow newcomer Derek Holland as Detroit’s starting pitcher against the Cleveland Indians, and despite a commendable effort on his part as well as solid outings from Buck Farmer and Michael Fulmer,
A ten game road trip that will take the Detroit Tigers to Houston and Oakland next, began in Cleveland on Friday night, and it didn’t go too well. Zach Plesac dominated the Tigers bats on a night when the pitching staff needed some help, and they fell 4-1. Signs were not auspicious for the Tigers

The Detroit Tigers are through their first homestand. It’s too soon to really know anything about this team, but that doesn’t mean we can’t make a few observations.

One week ago, the Detroit Tigers and the Cleveland Baseball Team squared off on in an Opening Weekend series. The Tigers, despite their woes against Cleveland over the past few years, emerged victorious, eeking out two close games by a total margin of four runs, and losing one game by six runs (on the bright
We’re back with a look at a whole lot of fun action from the Tigers and around the league, from MLB’s opening week. We’ll start with Tigers talk. Miggy in the snow. The legend of Akil Baddoo. A pretty good first six outings for the rotation. Matthew Boyd off to a good start. Michael Fulmer
The Detroit Tigers Weekly Draft Report has reached the halfway point of the college baseball season. This week’s report is a bit late, as last weekend’s games were spread from Thursday to Monday because of holidays and poor weather.
If you’d told us Matthew Boyd and the Tigers pen would hold the Minnesota Twins’ high powered offense to three runs, we would have liked our chances. Unfortunately, the Tigers ran into two outs at home plate that cost them, and they lost 3-2. Their record stands at .500 through the first two series of
Day three of Operation: Stop Nelson Cruz is a go. Sure, day one may have been a complete failure, but some Akil Baddoo magic made day two of the operation a success. It’s a difficult operation, should you choose to accept it. The Twins in general are tough, favored by many to win the AL
