The Detroit Tigers have to be thrilled with the output from Riley Greene, who has broken onto the big-league scene. He has been exceptional for the Tigers in many aspects, not just his performance in the batters’ box since making his debut.
Toledo Mud Hens 4, Indianapolis Indians 3 (box) Once again, the Mud Hens took advantage of too many walks from Indy pitching, seven in total, to win on Wednesday. The Hens scored in the top of the first when Josh Lester tried to steal second with John Valente on third. Indianapolis threw to second to
The Detroit Tigers went out and selected Jace Jung with the 12th overall pick in the 2022 MLB First-Year Amateur Draft. This was the last first-round pick out of Al Avila before he was fired last month in August.
It feels like forever ago. Remember minor-league minicamp in February, when more than 60 players not covered by the MLB lockout gathered in Lakeland, Florida? Detroit Tigers outfield coordinator Arnie Beyeler conducted a presentation about defense — specifically, pre-pitch preparation. Manager A.J. Hinch and pitching coach Chris Fetter were the only MLB coaches in camp,
The first place Erie SeaWolves gutted out a 5-3 win in 11 innings on Wednesday night against the Richmond Flying Squirrels at The Diamond. The win, coupled with a Bowie win over Akron, keeps Erie with a one-game lead in the standings (with a tie breaker) over the Baysox and The first place Erie SeaWolves
Detroit — To Riley Greene’s credit, he did not pull a Juan Gonzalez, a Victor Martinez or a Nick Castellanos. He was actually diplomatic about the spacious dimensions of Comerica Park even after it essentially robbed him of a go-ahead, two-run homer in the eighth inning Wednesday. “It’s a game of inches,” he said, after
DETROIT — Riley Greene has assembled a highlight reel of catches in Comerica Park’s spacious center field. He just made a 110-foot dash and diving grab on Alex Bregman’s drive to deep right-center field to deny an RBI hit Tuesday night, hours before he crushed a 3-0 pitch from Astros reliever Ryan Stanek in the

The Detroit Tigers didn’t stand a chance against Cristian Javier, just as they didn’t stand a chance against Framber Valdez on Monday and Hunter Brown on Tuesday. The American League-leading Houston Astros, far superior, came into Comerica Park, put their pitching depth on display and swept the lowly Tigers in three games. In Wednesday’s finale,
We hear from manager A.J. Hinch after the Astros complete a three-game sweep of the Tigers on Wednesday. #Leinenkugels
INDIANAPOLIS, IN – The Toledo Mud Hens defeated the Indianapolis Indians 4-3 on Wednesday afternoon. The Mud Hens were down 3-1 early on, then scored three runs in the late innings to grab the win. The Mud Hens would sit down the final 22 Indians batters that came to the INDIANAPOLIS, IN – The Toledo
The Houston Astros’ relentless combination of great pitching, strong game plans, good defense, and disciplined approach at the plate just overwhelmed the Tigers in this series. The hometown cats didn’t even play badly, but the Astros showed why they’re the best team in the American League once again, doing everything right in suffocating style to
Detroit — The clock struck midnight on the 2022 Tigers Tuesday night, the 6-3 loss to the Astros mathematically eliminating them from the postseason for the eighth straight season. But apparently the bylaws of Major League Baseball mandate the full season be played regardless. So the Tigers on Wednesday, against another dominating starting pitcher, fell to
The conversation between manager A.J. Hinch and third baseman Jeimer Candelario was direct. A similar talk happened with second baseman Jonathan Schoop. The Detroit Tigers aren’t mailing in the season, and Hinch’s goal is to win as many games as possible, but a new objective has surfaced down the stretch. The Tigers, the second-worst team
Detroit — For a man who typically lives his life free of doubts and second-guesses, Andrew Chafin was dealing with a lot of conflicting thoughts on his drive home from the ballpark Tuesday night after he’d given up a badly-timed, two-run home run to Yuli Gurriel in the Tigers’ 6-3 loss. “I wanted to be so
When Al Avila was fired back on Aug. 10, Detroit Tigers principal owner Chris Ilitch said he made the move then, as opposed to after the season, to get a head start on the GM search. While history would tell you a much different story, there was just a sliver of hope that Ilitch was…
Coming into the 2022 season, the big-time news from Chris Ilitch surrounding the Detroit Tigers organization was that he proclaimed the rebuild to be over. With a couple of big signings this past offseason in Javier Báez and Eduardo Rodríguez, the feeling was the rebuild was ending.
Toledo Mud Hens 9, Indianapolis Indians 1 (box) The Mud Hens took advantage of six walks from Indy pitching to blow them out on Tuesday night. The Hens struck early and often in this one. In the top of the first, John Valente led off with a walk and Zack Short immediately doubled him home.
Spencer Torkelson looks a little more comfortable these days. Success, of course, is the driving factor. It’s been just nine games, but the 23-year-old — as of 18 days ago — is showing positive signs. This is the beginning of what the Detroit Tigers hope is a strong response to his first-stint failures. The big
DETROIT — The Tigers’ offense showed signs of life Tuesday with help from Riley Greene. His defense, meanwhile, continues to kill hopes of extra-base hits in the depths of Comerica Park. The stare on Alex Bregman’s face after Greene’s latest diving grab spoke volumes to the quality of the catch. The center fielder was nowhere
