Cleveland – AJ Hinch was asked after the game Monday if Andy Ibanez, who started the season at Toledo, was starting to feel a part of things on this team. “He should feel 100 percent a part of it because he’s playing virtually every day,” Hinch said. “And he is contributing, which is nice. I

Cleveland — Tigers skipper AJ Hinch was in Bobby Fischer mode again Sunday, playing managerial chess like a grand champion. Seventh inning. Miguel Cabrera had just lashed an RBI single off right-handed reliever James Naile to cut the Cardinals’ lead to 3-2. And the Tigers still had runners at the corners with two outs. Hinch

A shaky start to the Detroit Tigers season is rapidly developing into a little buzz around southpaw starter Eduardo Rodriguez. Another eight inning scoreless gem against the talented New York Mets last week has fully flipped the narrative around the 30-year-old left-hander. Rodriguez has now thrown four really strong games in a row. Suddenly, the
