We hear from manager A.J. Hinch after his Tigers suffer a 5-2 loss in Tampa. #Leinenkugels
LANSING, MI – The West Michigan Whitecaps couldn’t find their offense when it mattered most as part of an 8-1 loss to the Lansing Lugnuts in front of 6,855 fans at Jackson Field on Thursday night. The Whitecaps struggled with runners in scoring position, going just 1-for-9 at the plate. Lansing plated six of their
Here’s a look at Thursday’s top Minor League performers from each team’s Top 30 Prospects list: Athletics: Jordan Diaz, 3B (No. 11), High-A LansingIn his second game since returning from the injured list, Diaz went 3-for-3 with a home run, a double and three RBIs. Diaz’s homer was his first since Aug. 6 and the
The last time Tyler Alexander faced the Rays, on Friday at Comerica Park, Tigers manager A.J. Hinch pulled his left-handed starter just before he could get a third matchup against Tigers nemesis Nelson Cruz. As effective as Alexander had been, there was no way Hinch was giving Cruz a third at-bat against a left-hander. As
The Tampa Bay Rays’ typically deep, talented bullpen was too much for the Tigers’ offense in this one. A bit of sloppy defense and no batted ball luck doomed Detroit to a 5-2 loss in the first of four from Tropicana Park. Tyler Alexander put together a very Tyler Alexander outing in this one. For
TOLEDO, Ohio – The Toledo Mud Hens clinched the inaugural Triple-A East Midwest Division title with a 5-1 victory over the Columbus Clippers on Thursday at Fifth Third Field. The win gives the Mud Hens (69-48) their seventh division championship since joining the International League in 1965, and first since capturing the IL’s West Division

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Detroit Tigers left-handed prospect Joey Wentz won’t pitch again in the 2021 season. The 23-year-old isn’t injured, but the organization decided to protect his arm from overuse in his first year back from Tommy John surgery. He underwent the procedure in March 2020 to repair the ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow.
St. Petersburg, Fla. — The look on Michael Fulmer’s face Wednesday afternoon when pitching coach Chris Fetter sauntered out to the mound was priceless. Fulmer, protecting a three-run lead, pitched a clean, 14-pitch eighth and had just won a 10-pitch battle striking out Jace Peterson for the second out in the ninth. “What the (bleep) are you
It’s a phrase worth repeating often in these parts. Player development is not always linear. While we tend to get excited about prospects who climb quickly through the Minor League ranks, many talents need more time to hone their skills and build the foundations for future Major League careers. Those that stick with it over
Tigers pitching prospect Joey Wentz’s first season back from Tommy John surgery is over, a week earlier than his team. The big left-hander will not pitch in the final week of Double-A Erie’s season, which ends on Sunday. The 23-year-old southpaw isn’t injured, but fatigue and innings led the Tigers to shut him down one
Considering the success of the Detroit Tigers already this season, it’s a trick to figure out what’s left to be gained over the season’s final weeks. They’ve found numerous young players who are filling roles, built a pretty good bullpen, and tested and failed players who don’t have a part in the future. But, while
Miguel Cabrera enters this homestand with seven consecutive hits, then thrills the Tigers faithful by adding two more in a Tigers win. The beat goes on for Miggy, who continues to come through as the Tigers would take 4 out of 5 games from the first place Rays and Brewers. But perhaps no Tiger this
At present, there are only 19 catchers whose portraits hang in the hallowed halls of Cooperstown. In terms of underrepresented positions, only third basemen have fewer inductees at 17 (this is not including designated hitters). Of course, when players are elected to the Hall of Fame, it is the entire story of their career that
The Detroit Tigers hit 70 wins yesterday. That number seems rather arbitrary considering there are a few weeks left in the season but it is quite the accomplishment. For Detroit Tigers fans, it has been a long road back to respectability. The expectations heading into this season were admittedly by us as a staff, somewhat…
The Erie SeaWolves are the Double-A affiliate of the Detroit Tigers, and play at the beautifully updated UPMC Park in Erie, Pennsylvania. UPMC Park has been home to the Erie SeaWolves since 1995. The ballpark is more than just a great place to watch high-quality, professional baseball. The home of the SeaWolves is a
It’s been an intriguing summer for followers of the Detroit Tigers organization. The major league club is putting up a scrappy effort night in and night out and more than a few fans are thinking competitive times are looming. Many believe the glaring need is a fixture at shortstop to vault the club ahead in…

Detroit’s major professional sports teams have struggled. This isn’t news. Though for FiveThirtyEight — a website that built its statistical bona fides on interpreting political polls, but has since expanded into the numbers of sports — the Motor City’s sporting misery was worth investigating. The site’s Andrew Mooney published an analysis this week detailing the degree to which the Lions, Pistons, Wings and
