The countdown is underway. As of Monday afternoon, the Detroit Tigers are maintaining their high asking prices for left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez and right-hander Michael Lorenzen leading up to Tuesday’s 6 p.m. trade deadline, according to multiple industry sources. The asking price for Rodriguez, despite his opt-out clause and 10-team no-trade clause, is believed to be
Detroit — It’s not a question of if the Tigers are going to trade starting pitchers Michael Lorenzen and Eduardo Rodriguez. It never was. The question is how long Tigers president Scott Harris holds out for the best deal before cashing his chips. It could happen two minutes after this story gets posted on the

If they do nothing more, the San Diego Padres at least know their legacy will be ruining the 2023 trade deadline. “I don’t think I’m going anywhere,” lefty Blake Snell said Sunday, and he’s probably right. Snell’s five innings of nearly flawless pitching helped San Diego complete a sweep of the Texas Rangers, who have
Y’know, there was a time, not so long ago, that the Detroit Tigers were buyers at the trade deadline, rather than sellers. Oh, for those hazy, crazy days of 2010-13, when the Tigers spun … well, we wouldn’t call them blockbusters, mostly — Jhonny Peralta (2010), Doug Fister (2011), Aníbal Sánchez (2012) and José Iglesias
DETROIT — Navigating life primarily in a wheelchair is difficult at times for Jamie Junior, but the Detroit native will not be deterred from making a difference. “I was raised to understand my own abilities and to be as independent as possible,” said Junior, who has cerebral palsy and osteoarthritis. “I believe that I was

It didn’t take long for Jace Jung to adjust to Double-A baseball. After going 0-for-3 and being hit by a pitch during his first game July 25 with the SeaWolves, Jung has caught fire at the plate. “It has been an adjustment for sure and I think I’m handling it well,” Jung said. “I’m just
In his second at-bat as a professional baseball player, Saturday, on the back fields at TigerTown in Lakeland, Florida, Max Clark ripped a two-run triple for the Tigers in a Florida Complex League game against the Yankees. Nice debut for an 18-year-old center fielder the Tigers grabbed first (No. 3 overall) in last month’s MLB
Jace Jung is making this Double-A thing look easy. The Tigers’ No. 2 prospect has only been at the level less than a week, but he’s been flexing his power ever since arriving at Detroit’s Double-A affiliate Erie on July 25. The latest example came Sunday, when Jung belted two homers in the SeaWolves’ 7-1 victory
There were three home runs West Michigan’s fans would have preferred not being on Jackson Jobe’s first-game record at high-Single A West Michigan. But given that Jobe allowed only four hits in five innings Saturday night at LMCU Ballpark, and considering he struck out nine while walking not a single batter, no one seemed overly
Detroit — Forty percent of the Tigers’ starting rotation is expected to be gone by Tuesday’s trade deadline. By baseball-rebuilding measures, it’s the right thing to do, dealing Michael Lorenzen and Eduardo Rodriguez. And maybe others. The buy-sell debate ended a couple of weeks ago, and the reckoning is here. This is Scott Harris’ unofficial

MIAMI — For the umpteenth time this weekend, the crowd at loanDepot park rose to its feet and showered Miguel Cabrera with applause. This time, it was as Cabrera was pinch-run for in the seventh inning, after he worked a walk and chugged around the bases to third. Cabrera, who is making what can only
Miami — There was a lot to sift through in the rubble of the Tigers’ dispiriting 8-6 loss in the series finale against the Miami Marlins on Sunday. They were up 4-0, then down 5-4, then back up 6-5. But when the 27th out was logged, by the Marlins’ newly-acquired closer David Robertson, it felt
