COOPERSTOWN, N.Y — When Jim Kaat was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame, he felt he wasn’t sure if he belonged.

As the Detroit Tigers return to Comerica Park for a brief homestand, Saturday’s pre-game for their matchup with the division leading Minnesota Twins turned into a lengthy housecleaning session.

Detroit — The Tigers started the day Saturday with just three starting pitchers on the active roster and a couple of TBA’s among the upcoming probable pitching matchups.

TOLEDO — After getting demoted to Triple-A Toledo, Spencer Torkelson spent the All-Star break in reflection, fighting himself and trying to figure out what went wrong. “I laid low for a couple of days, really reset, dug deep and had some good thoughts, had some bad thoughts and kind of battled myself through the break,”
