Phillies Rule 5 pick Noah Song has been shut down due to back tightness, per Alex Coffey of the Philadelphia Inquirer. He’s had an MRI and will be reevaluated next week, but it appears he won’t be ready to start the season. Song, 25, is an interesting case, given he’s spent the past three years

Northport, Fla. — Somehow, with all the pitchers that were either injured or ineffective last season, all the pitchers the Tigers went through (30 of them), Miguel Diaz pitched in just three games and none before Sept. 30. Position players Kody Clemens (7 innings) and Harold Castro (4 innings) threw more innings than Diaz (3.2).
LAKELAND, Fla. — Team Venezuela manager Omar López, also the first base coach for the Houston Astros, has a close relationship with Miguel Cabrera. They’re currently working together in the World Baseball Classic. On Friday, López announced Cabrera as the team’s captain.

Andre Lipcius’ steady approach is paying off in Lakeland, where the Tigers top prospect is enjoying a breakout Spring Training.
LAKELAND, Fla. — There’s an old joke that might apply to the Detroit Tigers this season. Two guys are walking in the woods when they see a bear. The first guy bends down calmly to fix his shoelaces. The second guy says, “Are you crazy? You can’t outrun a bear!” “I don’t need to outrun
Lakeland, Fla. — They call him Bonds. Kerry Bonds. OK, not everybody does. But his teammates do. And in his second at-bat in the Tigers’ 4-3 spring loss to the Yankees Friday, Tigers’ outfielder Kerry Carpenter showed why. He slugged a 96.5 mph fastball on an 0-2 count from Yankees starter Luis Severino and hit
Yordan Alvarez’s lingering hand soreness has continued to bother the Astros slugger this spring, yet Alvarez took a noteworthy step today when he hit the batting cage to take some soft-toss swings. Alvarez emerged from the session with no problems, though manager Dusty Baker didn’t give reporters (including the Houston Chronicle’s Chandler Rome) any hints
Lakeland, Fla. — This was supposed to be the week Matt Vierling dusted off his infield glove and got some game reps at third base and possibly second base. Instead, he showed up on the Tigers’ injury report Friday. At some point on Monday, he strained his right knee in the game against the Red
LAKELAND, Fla. — Spencer Torkelson was so enthused to see his line drive fall into open territory in left-center field that he could have floated into second base. Just in case, he stayed on his feet to leg out a double. “One dropped!” Torkelson exclaimed after Friday’s 4-3 loss to the Yankees. “Gosh, I feel like
LAKELAND, Fla. — The Detroit Tigers lost to New York Yankees, 4-3, on Friday at Publix Field at Joker Marchant Stadium. The Tigers are 8-7 in Grapefruit League play. What happened Right-hander Spencer Turnbull sounded confident warming up in the bullpen. “Oh yeah, that feels good,” he told catcher Eric Haase. Turnbull was talking about
LAKELAND, Fla — Back in February, Jace Jung, the Detroit Tigers‘ second baseman of the future, had a conversation with Jonathan Schoop, the current second baseman. “He just told me to be aggressive,” Jung said. “And have fun.

DETROIT — Growing up, Cindy Abbott never laced up a pair of hockey skates or wore lacrosse goggles. Fast forward to the present, and Abbott has taken it upon herself to make the sports she once knew very little about more accessible for athletes of all ages and abilities. “Driving culture and opportunities to connect
Lakeland, Fla. — They were moving lockers out of the clubhouse Friday morning, which means only one thing: more players have been sent out of camp. The Tigers announced that right-handed pitcher Reese Olson and infielder Wenceel Perez, who because of injuries never got a chance to compete, were optioned to Triple-A Toledo. Both players
LAKELAND, Fla. — Detroit Tigers outfielder Matt Vierling suffered a right knee strain earlier this week. The organization didn’t provide a timetable for his return to games, but considering he is returning to baseball activities over the weekend, the 26-year-old seems unlikely to miss significant time in spring training as long as he makes progress in
