The 2022 season was an exciting one for Major League debuts. Twelve Top 100 prospects began the campaign on Opening Day rosters, including three of the top five in Bobby Witt Jr., Julio Rodríguez and Spencer Torkelson. Others who followed in their footsteps with later bows — like National League Rookie of the Year Michael
This is the time of year when every writer crawls out of the woodwork to offer up year-end summaries of how their team’s season went. 2022 was an interesting year for the continually rebuilding Tigers franchise (read as, incredibly disappointing and tiring), as well as an interesting (read as, surprisingly decent) year in cinema. Having

The new year is upon us, but before the 2023 preparations begin in earnest at Spring Training, the Tigers still have questions to address, both on the field and
As we near the end of the calendar year, it’s a pertinent time to ask a very important question: Which player from each team is the most likely to have a breakout season in 2023? We asked MLB.com writers just that, and here’s what they had to say: Blue Jays: OF Daulton VarshoVarsho lands in
Kervin Castro appeared ready for the big leagues in 2021. He came out of the bullpen for the San Francisco Giants that September and tossed 13⅓ scoreless innings (one unearned run) to finish the regular season. The right-hander limited walks and capitalized on strikeout opportunities. The Detroit Tigers recently signed Castro, who turns 24 in
Detroit — Tigers president Scott Harris has seen the best and worst of right-handed reliever Kervin Castro, who he’s bringing to Detroit on a minor-league deal. Castro, a native Venezuelan who turns 24 on Feb. 7, made his big-league debut while Harris was with the Giants in 2021. He didn’t allow an earned run in
The Tigers have added right-handed reliever Kervin Castro on a minor league deal, according to his MLB transaction log. Castro, 23, split time between the Cubs and Giants in 2022, tossing 12 1/3 innings of 10.22 ERA ball while striking out batters at a 19.3% clip against a 12.3% walk rate. It was a disappointing
Tigers president of baseball operations Scott Harris looked — at least on Zoom — like a happy boss as he discussed the signing of right-hander Michael Lorenzen. It’s the type of signing Harris thrived on as Giants general manager, bringing in an undervalued starter with rebound potential on a short-term contract and then helping the
They say that one man’s trash is another’s treasure, and Detroit Tigers president Scott Harris seems to be taking that phrase to heart. On Friday, the Tigers claimed left-handed pitcher Zach Logue off waivers just a day after the Oakland Athletics designated him for assignment. Let’s be clear, I’m not calling Logue trash, but rather

Left-hander Zach Logue wasn’t sharp as a rookie for the Oakland Athletics last season, but in two starts against the Detroit Tigers, the 26-year-old dominated MLB’s worst offense. Those two matchups consisted of seven scoreless innings with six strikeouts May 11 at Comerica Park and six innings of three-run (one unearned) ball with four strikeouts
Detroit — If you can’t beat him, claim him off waivers. That’s what the Tigers have done, claiming left-handed starting pitcher Zach Logue off waivers from the Oakland Athletics on Friday. Logue’s two best starts last season, his rookie season, were against the Tigers. He pitched seven scoreless innings with six strikeouts at Comerica Park
The Tigers announced they have claimed left-hander Zach Logue off waivers from the A’s. Oakland had designated Logue for assignment earlier in the week. In a corresponding move, right-hander Angel De Jesus was designated for assignment. Jon Heyman of The New York Post reported the claim of Logue prior to the official announcement. Logue, 27 in
The free-agent market is running dry. And time is running out. The Detroit Tigers already finished shopping for starting pitchers — signing left-hander Matthew Boyd and right-hander Michael Lorenzen — and are believed to be focused on the trade market. With less than eight weeks until spring training, it’s fair to wonder whether or not the patient
Lynn Henning | Special to The Detroit News In nine months and a few days, the Tigers no longer will be paying Miguel Cabrera.

The end of the year is a great time to take a breath and look back at the baseball season that was. Some things happened as expected, but one of the things that’s so great about this game is when the unexpected happens. And that happened in the form of breakout seasons by players everywhere
The 20th annual Detroit Baseball Dinner, a night of merriment and deep baseball conversation as winter invites thoughts of spring training, will be held at 5:30 p.m., Jan. 28, at It’s A Matter Of Taste banquet hall in Commerce Township. The Detroit Baseball Dinner was launched in January 2002 as a means for baseball-minded people
Well, the Tigers made a little move today, claiming former Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Mario Feliciano. Beyond that, you can probably expect a very quiet two weeks into the new year. It’s shaping up to a very quiet offseason overall in the first place.Scott Harris will be off for his wedding and honeymoon, and from
The Tigers announced that they have claimed catcher Mario Feliciano off waivers from the Brewers. Outfielder Bligh Madris was designated for assignment in a corresponding move. Feliciano had been designated for assignment last week. Feliciano, 24, was selected 75th overall by the Brewers in 2016 and has had some prospect shine in his time in
