LAKELAND, Fla. — The long, slow trudge from the mound back to the dugout seemed like an inevitable ending to Joey Wentz’s outings by the end of last season. It was a microcosm of the slog that the year became for the lanky left-hander, who struggled to recapture the sneaky good arsenal he showed near
In today’s Marygrove Awnings update, update, we hear from Detroit Tigers pitcher Casey Mize, who takes us through his recovery process after having undergoing Tommy John and back surgeries in 2022.
SARASOTA, Fla. — After nearly two years away from the game, it makes sense to think that Casey Mize’s spring might involve a bit of a crash course on the finer points of his game. “Even for somebody as talented as Casey,” manager A.J. Hinch noted, “two years is a long time.” That being said,

When Tyler Holton was claimed off waivers the Tigers last spring, he came with a reputation as a low-powered lefty junkballer. He found himself finishing the season as one of Detroit’s most trusted relievers. He’s spent most of his pro career as a swingman and took on the mantle of long relief during his rookie
Sure, it’s hard to ignore the fact that former Tigers slugger and fan favorite J.D. Martinez remains unsigned as the calendar turns to March. At the beginning of the year, we discussed the idea, but it never seemed likely. Two months have passed and Martinez remains unsigned. A reunion seems at least slightly more plausible,
In today’s Marygrove Awnings Spring Training report, Beau Brieske and Matt Vierling explain why this Tigers team can use their young age to their advantage.
The Detroit Tigers came away from the 2024 MLB Draft lottery with the 11th overall pick. The Tigers have selected in that range just once since tearing the team down to its studs, when they drafted Jace Jung with the 12th pick in 2022. After crawling out of the league’s basement in 2023, Detroit wasn’t
The Tigers signed Drew Anderson to a minor league deal in January, and almost no one paid attention. Based on his showing so far this spring, that may have been a real oversight. Detroit offered the career journeyman an invite to big league camp, and the 30-year-old veteran has really popped in his limited exposure

The Tigers have traded infielder Andre Lipcius to the Dodgers in exchange for cash considerations. He had been designated for assignment by Detroit last week. The Dodgers opened up a roster spot for him by transferring left-hander Clayton Kershaw to the 60-day injured list. Lipcius, 26 in May, will join a new organization for the
The Tigers under Scott Harris have a well-earned reputation as a restless organization, and with the spring well underway, they haven’t slowed down trying to improve around the edges. First, they signed pitching prospect Thomas Bruss to a minor league deal last Tuesday. Then, on Friday, they claimed infielder Buddy Kennedy off waivers from the
Now that all the Tigers starting pitchers have gotten their first outing in, and some their second, let’s circle back to see what Statcast can tell us about the quality of stuff we’re seeing. In the first part of this pair of articles, the main takeaway was that the Tigers pitchers had come to camp
Before we start the season, we’ll have another open thread where you can make your bold predictions for how the Tigers will play in 2024, but for today, with spring training games underway and the roster pretty much set, we thought we’d try a different kind of prediction. Considering we’ve barely seen (or even heard)
The Tigers have claimed infielder Buddy Kennedy off waivers from the Cardinals, per announcements from both clubs. The Cards had designated him for assignment earlier this week. The Tigers designated infielder Andre Lipcius for assignment in a corresponding move. Kennedy, 25, has 40 games of major league experience, all with the Diamondbacks. He has hit

The Detroit Tigers are always a bit frustrating in spring training because there are precious few televised broadcasts. Even driving around the Detroit area, the early spring games may be am radio only if you’re using your trusty antenna.
