There’s an old saying about good things coming to those who wait. Well, Tigers fans have been waiting for over two and a half months, nay, over five years, ok, make it seven years, for good things to happen. So far in 2022, the results remain rather bleak. Suffering through a long, drawn out rebuild,

Basically, every Detroit Tigers fan is frustrated right now and every national analyst is full of criticism of the team. There is not a ton of arguments to make to the contrary, as the 2022 squad has taken a step back when many expected it to continue showing some progress as it did in the

Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders 7, Toledo Mud Hens 2 (box) Nivaldo Rodriguez was rocked for six runs as the Mud Hens went down to defeat on Thursday. Rodriguez allowed 11 hits in just 3 2⁄3 innings of work. The RailRiders scored two in the second, and then came back for four in the fourth inning to knock

If you had Rob Refsnyder with a ruled home run off the top of the Green Monster on your bingo card tonight, no you didn’t you liar. But Rob Refsnyder sure did, and to the surprise of precisely no one who has paid attention this season, the Tigers had a rough time. In the first,

Well, the team looks better, but the winning percentage isn’t changing. After a bit of a tough loss on Tuesday, the Tigers are in danger of being swept in Boston. This would be a less than ideal way to start off a three city road trip. Fortunately, the Tigers have the better pitcher on the

Toledo Mud Hens 3, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders 2 (box) The Mud Hens rode a solid rehab start and a good night for infielder John Valente to victory over the RailRiders on Tuesday night. They now hold a 35-30 record and stand fourth in the International League West. Pineda did his thing and looked very Michael Pineda-like

Despite the temperatures around the Great Lakes being pretty hot these days, the Tigers continued their series in Boston on a relatively cool Atlantic coast evening. Pleasant temperatures were not enough to propel the Detroiters to victory, though, as they dropped the second game of the three-game series 5-4. I still can’t get over the

Since head coach Erik Bakich left the University of Michigan last week to take the head coaching job at Clemson, Detroit Tigers’ pitching coach Chris Fetter has been a key point of discussion as Bakich’s potential replacement. However, after a long week for Tigers’ fans, Fetter has removed his name from consideration and informed manager

Riley Greene is here, but no he isn’t the cure-all for the Tigers’ ills. The whole lineup has swung the bat better in his three games with the club, even out-hitting the Red Sox in Monday’s loss, but this is still a team struggling to get the offense rolling consistently as the cracks in an

The Tigers may have scored 21 runs in two games against Texas over the weekend, but the Boston Red Sox aren’t the Rangers and Detroit fell in the series opener Monday, 5-2. Red Sox starter Josh Winckowski cruised through the first three batters of the night and ran into little trouble through 6 2⁄3 innings

Worcester Red Sox 5, Toledo Mud Hens 4 (box) The Mud Hens had a pretty good series in Worcester. They lost the first game on Tuesday, then ripped off four straight wins before falling 5-4 on Sunday. Starting this Tuesday, they’ll welcome the Scranton Wilkes-Barre RailRiders in for six. On Sunday, they got a good

Big games from Robbie Grossman, Spencer Torkelson, and Victor Reyes in particular powered the Tigers to a 7-3 victory to split the four-game set with the Texas Rangers. This one started out a lot like Saturday’s contest with a power surge in the first inning from both clubs. Corey Seager, the Rangers’ leadoff hitter, homered
