In A.J. Hinch’s words, on Thursday, the Detroit Tigers found another way to lose, falling 3-1 to the Texas Rangers. Detroit’s bullpen had been used so frequently earlier in the week, Hinch needed to use three position players to pitch on Wednesday. On Thursday, Beau Brieske tried to do the heavy lifting himself.

Hinch and Co. held a team meeting after a 13-0 loss to the White Sox on Wednesday afternoon — a game in which three position players pitched. It was as embarrassing as they…
Players-only meetings are a cliché. They are also barometers of how the season is going. If a team gathers without its coaches and/or management, as the Detroit Tigers did Wednesday after losing to the White Sox, 13-0, you can bet the team is struggling. The Tigers are struggling; this is an understatement, I realize. The
