Sunday was graduation day at Prospect University. Any player who began the season with zero Major League experience and cracked an Opening Day roster exceeded the 45-day rookie standard on Sunday. That makes this as good a time as any to make some alterations to the MLB Pipeline Top 100 prospect rankings. With Yankees shortstop
Detroit – Permanence, for Tigers’ super utility man Zach McKinstry, has always been an elusive concept. He was 20 years old in 2015 and having himself a fun summer. He’d just finished a very successful freshman season at Central Michigan University and was raking for Waterloo in the Northwoods summer league. Then everything changed. His

DETROIT — Nick Maton’s struggle to hit the breaking ball has been well-chronicled. So maybe it was fitting that the Tigers completed their comeback Sunday when the breaking ball hit him. It’s more ironic than iconic. But when the Tigers needed to avoid a series sweep to the Mariners, a bases-loaded hit-by-pitch is just as

Detroit — You may ask yourself, why did Tigers’ manager AJ Hinch throw scuffling Nick Maton back in the five-hole in his lineup Sunday? He’s hitting .157 on the season and in 10 games this month was 3 for 26 with nine strikeouts. Hitting fifth? Hinch’s answer to that question turned into a enlightening dissertation
A tough 2022 season chased Dillon Dingler all the way to spring camp at Lakeland, Florida. And then the baseball ghouls socked a 24-year-old Tigers catching prodigy with a second punch: Dingler needed March surgery on his right knee. Somber stuff — or so it might have been thought. But look at mid-May and Dingler’s

Detroit — The Tigers came home from Cleveland on Wednesday night feeling pretty good. They’d won back-to-back road series, were in second place in the division and sniffing the .500 mark at 17-19. That started to feel like a long time ago. Especially after the Seattle Mariners rolled into Comerica Park and swatted the Tigers

Somehow, the Detroit Tigers kept the game within reach. Left-hander Joey Wentz was chased from his eighth start of the season in the third inning, the defense fumbled opportunities for outs — specifically in the third inning — and the offense stranded too many runners in scoring position. And yet, the Tigers, almost unbelievably, took

They span an age and experience spectrum high-Single A players can bring to a roster, at least when they’re as talented as Roberto Campos and Jace Jung.

Three days before Opening Day, the Detroit Tigers acquired Zach McKinstry from the Chicago Cubs in an unexpected trade. He hit leadoff for the first time on April 26, one month into his tenure with the organization, and continues to serve as the leadoff hitter against right-handed pitchers. McKinstry, a left-handed hitter, leads the Tigers
