The Tigers walked off the Kansas City Royals on Saturday, thanks to back-to-back ninth-inning home runs from Victor Reyes and Riley Greene. There
A brutal day from the Tigers’ pitching staff led them to a series loss against the Kansas City Royals. If you, like many fans, weren’t able to watch the game due to it to being exclusive to the Peacock streaming service, well you were better off in the end. Tarik Skubal’s recent trend of bad
There is no such thing as a holiday — a pitching holiday, free from disruption — at Triple-A Toledo. And that works not only for the Tigers, but in a counter-intuitive way, for Mud Hens manager Lloyd McClendon. It just means his bullpen, his largely unflappable bullpen, will probably get extra work.

Worse than the Detroit Tigers’ record this season, has been the lack of signs of hope over the first three months.

Detroit – From the sound of it, Riley Greene hitting in the leadoff spot isn’t just an experiment or a one-off. He might be there a while. “My goal with Riley and where he’s going to hit,” Tigers manager AJ Hinch said before Saturday’s game. “I hope he hits in the leadoff spot for the next
The bullpen will be a focus for the Twins heading into the trade deadline, even though “the reliever (trade) market is always the toughest one to navigate and always the toughest one to pin down,” chief baseball officer Derek Falvey told The Athletic’s Aaron Gleeman and other reporters. “It all depends on what’s available, but
