Considered the “consensus top high school righthander available” by Baseball America back in 2009, Jacob Turner was drafted ninth overall by the Tigers out of Westminster Christian Academy in Missouri. He stood at 6’5″, 210 lbs and touched 98 with his fastball. Adviser Scott Boras was able to get the 18-year-old Turner a $5.5MM Major
Right-hander Edwin Uceta thinks the best is yet to come. He appeared on the Los Angeles Dodgers’ top-30 prospect list from 2019-21. Since then, he has pitched 24 games in the major leagues and has been designated for assignment twice in his young career. The Detroit Tigers claimed Uceta off waivers Jan. 11 — two days
We hear from coach Dwane Casey after his Pistons give up 49 first-quarter points and suffer a 150-130 loss to the Bucks on Monday. #DetroitBasketball
Detroit — Remember when the Tigers drafted Spencer Torkelson with the first overall pick in 2020 and they announced him as a third baseman? Seemed daft at the time, didn’t it? But, as we sit here today, just a few short weeks from the start of spring training, and with the Tigers still without any

Kalamazoo — It’s been 15 years since Daniel Schlereth was in college. Now, he’s going back to school, as the newest member of Western Michigan baseball coach Billy Gernon’s staff. Schlereth will serve as Gernon’s volunteer coach, and manage the pitching staff. It’s the latest coaching gig since Schlereth retired following the start of the
The Rockies have landed infielder Harold Castro on a minor league deal, MLBTR can confirm. The move was first reported by Efrain Zavarce of IVC Networks. The deal comes with an invite to major league spring training. Castro is represented by the MAS+ Agency. Castro, 29, put up a .271/.300/.381 line with seven home runs
DETROIT — For the second consecutive offseason, Matt Manning has been training in Florida with some of the Tigers’ other young starting pitchers. It makes sense, considering the bond they’ve built. Manning, Casey Mize, Tarik Skubal and Alex Faedo came up through the farm system together, including in the summer of 2019 as a star-studded
Tigers players Matt Manning, Eric Haase and Matt Boyd visit Detroit Edison Public School Academy on Friday. #DetroitRoots
Detroit — The competitor lies deep within Matthew Boyd, buried beneath layers of politeness, professionalism, altruism and a genuine righteousness. He’s a good human first, a good husband and father first, a good teammate first. Make no mistake, with a baseball in his left hand, Boyd is as fierce and driven a competitor as there

The Detroit Tigers are counting on Spencer Torkelson. It feels like a make-or-break season. When spring training begins Feb. 13, Torkelson — four months removed from the end of a miserable rookie campaign — will control a spot on the Opening Day roster as the everyday first baseman. The 23-year-old could play his way off the team
The American League Central has had three different winners in the past three years. The Twins took the top spot in both 2019 and the shortened 2020 season but have since seen injuries hamper them significantly in the past two campaigns. A resurgent White Sox club took over in 2021, making the playoffs for a
The Tigers have had a fairly quiet offseason. First-year baseball operations leader Scott Harris has shied away from long-term additions on the heels of the team’s “Murphy’s law” 2022 campaign. The club took a couple upside dice rolls on Matt Boyd and Michael Lorenzen for the rotation, likely with an eye towards a possible deadline deal if
Matthew Boyd was only gone for 13 months. But the Tigers’ veteran pitcher could’ve told you even then that he could see where this was all headed. And now that he’s back in Detroit, the 31-year-old lefty can tell you he was right, with still nearly a month to go before pitchers and catchers report
Detroit — Say this about Tigers catcher Eric Haase — he speaks his mind, forthrightly. He was in town Thursday, along with teammates Matthew Boyd and Matt Manning and manager AJ Hinch, taking part in a scaled-down Winter Caravan, and he was asked what he thought about the new pitch timer that Major League Baseball
Detroit — You expected the Tigers to sign a veteran first baseman this offseason, preferably one who batted left-handed. Names like Wil Myers, Eric Hosmer, even right-handed-hitting Trey Mancini were bandied about. The thought was that president Scott Harris would have to bring in someone to either platoon with or be a safety net for
