The Tigers claimed Bristo off waivers from
Gabe Alvarez needed a few (more) good men at Double-A Erie. He manages a SeaWolves team that Friday clinched a first-half Eastern League division championship, but, truth be told, Erie’s lineup needed a boost. So, minus bugles blaring, minus any rebel yells, Erie earlier this month got help when outfielder Justice Bigbie and first baseman
The Detroit Tigers are in the mix in the American League Central. One sloppy play cost them from moving up in the standings.

With the series on the line, the Tigers snatched defeat from the jaws of victory against the Minnesota Twins on Sunday. The offense went cold against Bailey Ober after a brief outburst in the third, and a key defensive mistake from Nick Maton cost the Tigers late as the Twins scratched out an unearned run
Over the first 824 games of his Major League career, Tim Anderson had almost exclusively as a shortstop, with a couple of DH days thrown into the mix. However, Anderson has now made two consecutive starts at second base, as a way of getting the veteran into the White Sox lineup despite some lingering soreness
About the only thing better Thursday than Jackson’s Jobe’s numbers after his first start for Single-A Lakeland was Jackson Jobe’s disposition. “Man, I’m good, I’m really good,” Jobe, who is 20 years old and a right-handed starter of note on the Tigers farm, said during a Saturday phone conversation. “It just feels great to be
Detroit — If there’s one thing that stood out to Tigers manager AJ Hinch so far about Reese Olson, it’s not his swing-and-miss stuff. Nope. While Hinch said he’s been encouraged by what Olson has provided in his five appearances this season, he’s been more impressed by the rookie pitcher’s demeanor. “I’ve seen guys come

DETROIT — Tigers reliever Brendan White was roommates and teammates with Reese Olson at Double-A Erie last year, when Olson was primarily a fastball-changeup starter. His slider was arguably not even his best breaking pitch at the time. You’d have a hard time convincing Twins hitters of that after their first look at Olson on Saturday
