I’m not sure about you, but I don’t watch a ton of TV during the baseball season, mainly because there’s too much baseball to watch. But that said, in the off months, I cram in as many popular and praised shows as I can, hoping to stay somewhat in touch with pop culture references and
It’s no secret that for the Detroit Tigers, the AL Central, a playoff spot, and a .500 record are all an uphill battle through the rest of the season. Heading into Friday night’s contest, the Tigers boast a 9-23 record and are nine games behind the first-place Minnesota Twins.
The Detroit Tigers continue to struggle, scoring just a pair of wins so far in the month of May over a stretch of 12 games, quickly sinking the team toward the bottom of the major league standings. AJ Hinch’s squad simply has not been able to figure out its last four opponents, which include the
Well if it’s not everything, it’s at least one thing. The Tigers fought back after a shaky first inning from their rookie starter, but fittingly, their best reliever entering the season blew a tie game in the eighth and went on to lose 5-3 as the A’s took the series four games to one. In
In the fourth and final part of this miniseries where we discuss who’s to blame for the Detroit Tigers’ disastrous start, we finally get to the man who’s the main culprit: owner Chris Ilitch. It may have taken him a bit, but Mike Ilitch wanted to win a championship, and he was willing to stop…

The Detroit Tigers, as a unit, are the proverbial pig looking to gussy up for the barnyard dance with some bright red lipstick. Unfortunately, in the unforgiving light of day this pig as still sinfully ugly as you’d expect from a team without one single qualified guy slugging .400+ to this point.
Things are not going well in Detroit. The month of May has been an absolute slog for the Tigers as the team only seems capable of winning in the front half of doubleheaders. Sporting a 2-9 record so far throughout the month, Detroit closes out a bizarre five-game series with the Oakland Athletics on Thursday
Sigh… …It’s getting harder and harder to find the motivation to type up detailed recaps these days. Here’s the recap, the Detroit Tigers lost, again. It wasn’t even a close game, again. The offense got shutout by a pitcher recently called up from AAA where they were struggling, again. Meanwhile the Tigers’ third rookie starter
For the third time in less than three weeks, the Detroit Tigers are calling up one of their top pitching prospects. The condensed schedule and weather issues mean the Tigers are in the midst of a run of 18 games in 16 days, and an unfortunate string of injuries has led to an all-hands on…
In part 3 of this miniseries where we discuss who’s to blame for the Detroit Tigers’ disastrous start, general manager Al Avila is next up on the chopping block. Al Avila is a controversial figure amongst Tigers fans. Many fans have been clamoring for his firing for years, while others think he’s been handicapped by…
The offseason additions the Detroit Tigers made over the offseason drew most of the attention to the major league club this spring. However, rumors of the end of the rebuilding era may have been a bit exaggerated. The Tigers are still trying to develop their main crop of top prospects at the major league level
Things did not go so well in Game 2 of the doubleheader, as the offense reverted to light-hitting mode. However, Alex Faedo was really, really good in this one and didn’t deserve a loss as the A’s won x-x. The first look many Tigers fans got at Alex Faedo was in his major league debut
The Tigers’ offense finally broke loose in Game 1 of Tuesday’s doubleheader with the Oakland A’s. Powered by another excellent start from Tarik Skubal, the offense eventually wore down Frankie Montas and won pretty easily 6-0. Skubal was flat out dominant once again. Using his reshaped slider more and more each start, the hard-throwing lefty
Yesterday, I highlighted three trade targets the Tigers could look at if they were to try making a push to compete this season. At the time of the creation of this article, The Tigers are sitting at a record of 8-20, losing six in a row, and eight of their last 10.

In part two of this miniseries where we discuss who’s to blame for the Detroit Tigers’ disastrous start, A.J. Hinch deserves some heat. I want to preface this article by saying that I love A.J. Hinch. I wouldn’t trade him for any other manager in the league. That being said, he is not immune to…
Hey, the Tigers have two chances to win today. Surely this is the day they snap the losing streak. The frustration was obvious on Monday night as a whole series of bad calls from home plate umpire Nick Mahrley sent the club gnashing its teeth. Javier Báez was called out, argued and got tossed, followed
There were a lot of things I wanted to write in this recap. I wanted to write about a Tigers win, first and foremost. I wanted to write about a blowout, with Schoop finding his groove, Meadows launching a home run, and the Tigers using the home-field advantage to shake off the cobwebs and put
