Yesterday, I explained why the Detroit Tigers shouldn’t draft a pitcher in the first round of the upcoming 2022 MLB Draft. However, pitching is still a part of the game, of course, so they shouldn’t neglect it despite the pitching depth in the organization. As the old saying goes, you can never have too much…
The Detroit Tigers hold the 12th overall pick in the upcoming first-year player draft to be held from July 17-19 in Los Angeles. Currently there are two legacy players who are aiming to go one and two, Druw Jones, son of former Braves’ outfield Andruw Jones, and the aforementioned Jackson Holliday.
Riley Greene is here, but no he isn’t the cure-all for the Tigers’ ills. The whole lineup has swung the bat better in his three games with the club, even out-hitting the Red Sox in Monday’s loss, but this is still a team struggling to get the offense rolling consistently as the cracks in an
After a $2.6 million renovation, the historic Hamtramck Stadium — one of the few remaining Negro League ballparks in America — was unveiled Monday with a ceremony and a Negro Leagues tribute baseball game. The stadium, built in 1930 and the former home of the Detroit Stars, is one of five major Negro Leagues home ballparks in the

Boston — Manager AJ Hinch doesn’t typically make a mound visit unless he’s changing pitchers. Which made his visit to starter Alex Faedo in the fourth inning of the Tigers’ 5-2 loss to the Red Sox at Fenway Park Monday curious. There was nobody warming in the bullpen. Hinch’s mission became crystal clear. It may
BOSTON — Alex Faedo fared well through his first seven starts after joining the Tigers’ rotation on May 4. The right-hander had a 2.92 ERA with 28 strikeouts in 37 innings, a welcome addition to a rotation dealing with the injury bug. Faedo’s ERA ballooned to 4.28 after he gave up seven runs in a

The Detroit Tigers scored 21 runs in their past two games at Comerica Park, winning back-to-back matchups with the Texas Rangers to split the series. For the first time this season, the Tigers scored at least five runs in consecutive games. Then, the Tigers traveled to Fenway Park. A date with the Boston Red Sox
HAMTRAMCK, Mich. — The sounds of baseball brought new life to an old ballfield Monday afternoon. Dugouts cheered each hit and jeered each opposing pitcher. Mitts popped with each fastball. Foul balls clanked off the metal roof over the grandstand. This is how Hamtramck Stadium sounded in the 1930s, when the Negro Leagues’ Detroit Stars
The Tigers may have scored 21 runs in two games against Texas over the weekend, but the Boston Red Sox aren’t the Rangers and Detroit fell in the series opener Monday, 5-2.

Boston — He wasn’t gone that long, but in some ways Jeimer Candelario had to feel like he was walking into a completely different clubhouse Monday. “Just the vibe,” he said. “Things are starting to go our way.” Candelario, out since June 6 with a left shoulder subluxation, made the short drive from Worcester, Massachusetts, where
Hamtramck — Hamtramck Stadium is the second-oldest Negro League ballpark still standing in 2022. Legends such as Cool Papa Bell, Satchel Paige and Detroit native Norman “Turkey” Stearnes played in the venue. It’s a relic of the past, and one of importance to many. But it was closed in 1997 and there were talks to demolish
The Detroit Tigers traded outfielder Trayce Thompson to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday, according to sources, as Dodgers star outfielder Mookie Betts landed on the injured list with a cracked right rib. Upon learning Betts will miss at least a couple weeks, the Dodgers began searching for a right-handed bat as a short-term replacement in the
