ARLINGTON, Texas — Detroit Tigers right-hander Reese Olson, who made his MLB debut at the beginning of June, exited Thursday’s series finale against the Texas Rangers in the bottom of the second inning with a left knee contusion.

Arlington, Texas — The last time the Tigers were on the verge of returning to a healthy, five-man starting rotation (Monday), Matthew Boyd blew out his left elbow. The snake keeps biting. On the day the Tigers optioned Joey Wentz back to Triple-A Toledo in expectation of possibly both Tarik Skubal and Eduardo Rodriguez being
Before we get into the details of this afternoon’s game, we need to acknowledge just how terrible the Tigers’ luck with injuries has been this season. I am the first to offer a pessimistic take on this club, but looking at the injury radar and where the Tigers are in the AL Central standings, well…
The Tigers have had their share of injuries already this season. Well, maybe their share along with the shares of a couple of other teams too. The Tigers’ starting rotation has been decimated by injuries, including Eduardo Rodriguez and Matthew Boyd, who requires Tommy John surgery. This time, it was Reese Olson, who took a
The Tigers appear set for a roster move, as left-hander Zach Logue is in the clubhouse this morning while fellow southpaw Joey Wentz does not have a locker, tweets Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press. Chris McCosky of the Detroit News tweets that Detroit is set to make a 40-man roster move to add
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Good news has been rare for Detroit Tigers pitchers. Seems like somebody gets hurt or has surgery every other day. But here comes something positive for a change. Tarik Skubal took another impressive step toward returning to the majors on Wednesday night. Pitching four innings in a rehab start for the Toledo
ARLINGTON, Texas — Detroit Tigers manager A.J. Hinch and pitching coach Chris Fetter held a meeting with left-hander Joey Wentz on Thursday morning, before officially optioning him to Triple-A Toledo.

Arlington, Texas — It wasn’t a surprise to anyone, really. When lefty Joey Wentz was summoned into manager AJ Hinch’s office Thursday morning, he knew what was coming. “(Pitching coach Chris Fetter) and I met with Joey this morning to tell him about the transaction but also to offer him some encouragement,” Hinch said. “It’s

Columbus Clippers 11, Toledo Mud Hens 10 (F/10)(box) This one was far more entertaining that the Tigers game last night. The result was the same though, as the Hens opened the second half of their schedule with an extra innings loss to the Clippers on a smoky Wednesday night at Huntington Park. Colten Keith made
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Before the most important Detroit Tigers prospect hit a jaw-dropping, monster home run. Before getting on base five times. Before knocking in two runs. Before the Columbus Clippers got so sick of Keith doing damage, they intentionally walked him in the 10th inning — the ultimate sign of respect. Before any of

ARLINGTON — Left-hander Joey Wentz dropped his fifth consecutive start as the Tigers fell at Globe Life Field in a lopsided 10-2 loss to the Rangers. Wentz never seemed to find his footing in the 4 2/3-inning outing, as the Rangers blitzed him for four runs in the first inning. Marcus Semien and Corey Seager
Wherever Colt Keith goes, he mashes. And if anyone needed more proof of that, look no further than his first game with Triple-A Toledo. Just two pitches into his first at-bat after being promoted from Double-A Erie, MLB’s No. 42 prospect clobbered a 425-foot homer to straightaway center. He went on to reach base four
Arlington, Texas — Only two more days left in this misbegotten month for the Tigers. It started with crippling injuries to their best hitter (Riley Greene) and best pitcher (Eduardo Rodriguez), which triggered a slog of nine straight losses. The injuries have continued to pile up and so have the losses, even with a stretch
