Tarik Skubal had six strikeouts through four innings against the Athletics. He speaks on his first start in 11 months.
Miraculously, the Detroit Tigers are just a few games behind in their division and have a legitimate chance to win the American League Central Division, despite being almost 10 games below .500.

Detroit — It wasn’t a perfect game. But it was a perfect start. And though it was over early, as planned, Tarik Skubal’s much-anticipated return sure did feel like the perfect antidote for AJ Hinch and his injury-plagued roster. But then came another reality check for the Tigers, as a feel-good night ended with an

DETROIT — Tarik Skubal tried to make a quiet entrance into the Tigers’ clubhouse at Comerica Park on Tuesday afternoon, just like he’d done every other start before flexor tendon surgery last summer, and every day for his rehab work this spring.

Talk about a tremendous return from Tarik Skubal. In his season debut, Skubal truly shined, no-hitting the A’s through four innings, and really looking to be in great shape. But before I get too carried away in enthusiasm for Skubal, let’s go back to the beginning and see how it all came together. Skubal had
The Twins shuffled their bullpen around a bit today as the club announced that right-hander Jorge Lopez had been reinstated from the injured list.
