PITTSBURGH — Detroit Tigers reliever Michael Fulmer needed to put Kyle Farmer away. He worked him into a 2-2 count with one out in the seventh inning while protecting a 3-0 lead over the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday. He had tossed in a first-pitch called strike with a 96 mph two-seam fastball before getting ahead 0-2 on
PITTSBURGH — The baseball dropped into shallow center between a diving Niko Goodrum and a hustling Jonathan Schoop. They were playing up the middle in the Detroit Tigers‘ infield for Tuesday’s clash with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Schoop has handled second base for most of his career, but the Tigers have showcased his versatility by using him

We hear from manager A.J. Hinch after his Tigers drop another one to the Pirates, 3-2 Tuesday. #Leinenkugels
DES MOINES, Iowa – The Toledo Mud Hens took game one of the series against the Iowa Cubs at Principal Park on Tuesday night, 8-2. Iowa starter, Luis Lugo, struck out the side to start the game. The Mud Hens wouldn’t let him do that again in the second, though. Kody Clemens singled and then
Pittsburgh — Strange night. PNC Park was nearly empty Tuesday night, as if COVID-19 capacity restrictions were still in place. The crowd was announced at 8,329, but that seemed exaggerated. And so quiet. At one point, music from a nearby outdoor concert was louder than the stadium noise. There wasn’t much energy being generated on
A night of lots of traffic and little run scoring was the theme in Pittsburgh as the Tigers took on the Pirates in the second of a three game series. This was not a very eventful game outside of a few plays as both teams seemed to play a big game of chicken to see
PITTSBURGH — The future of the Tigers lineup isn’t far off. Maybe not so much on the map, where Spencer Torkelson and Riley Greene crushed home runs for Triple-A Toledo on the road in Iowa, a long way from PNC Park. But the more the Tigers’ top two prospects slug for the Mud Hens, the
The Tigers have selected the contract of right-hander Drew Hutchison from Triple-A Toledo, and also called up right-hander Bryan Garcia. The two hurlers will take the places of righties Joe Jimenez (placed on the COVID-related injury list) and Drew Carlton (optioned to Triple-A yesterday). This will be Hutchison’s second appearance on Detroit’s big league roster
The Erie SeaWolves used a consistent attack to open their six-game series with the Altoona Curve with a 4-2 win. Erie collected nine hits as a team including Kerry Carpenter’s 15th home run of the season. Altoona scored both of their runs in the first inning, but Joey Wentz, Henry Martinez, and Yaya Chentouf held

PITTSBURGH — The Detroit Tigers tacked on their final run in the eighth inning of Sunday’s 4-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park. Akil Baddoo applied pressure with a leadoff walk. The Tigers were in business with Jonathan Schoop at the plate. In an 0-2 count, Baddoo knew Schoop would be aggressive. He took off

PITTSBURGH — If there was any question about Spencer Torkelson’s future position in Detroit as he settles in at first base at Triple-A Toledo down the stretch this season, Tigers manager A.J. Hinch seemed to take care of it Tuesday. Asked on MLB Network Radio about the versatility of his infielders and where Jonathan Schoop
Pittsburgh — Some players can watch themselves on video and see precisely where their mechanics have gone off track. With other players, watching video is a waste of time. They have to feel it. Tigers reliever Bryan Garcia is in the latter category. “Everybody has a different pitching language in their brain,” he said. “With me,

The Toledo Mud Hens have the deepest collection of Detroit Tigers prospects right now, and they also happened to play the most pivotal series of any team in the system last week, so that’s an easy place to start.
The latest on coronavirus-related situations around baseball… The Tigers placed right-hander Joe Jimenez on the COVID-related injury list yesterday due to a positive test. First base coach George Lombard also tested positive, while pitching coach Chris Fetter, quality control coach Josh Paul and bullpen catcher Jeremy Carroll are away from the team due to contact
On a March day in 1981, at a baseball clubhouse in Sun City, Arizona, a young sports writer approached a player he needed to speak with for a Detroit News story. Moreover, this was a man the scribe wanted to talk with because he knew from all testimony that Ted Simmons was a definitively interesting
We don’t often consider extensions to Detroit Tigers players. Nick Castellanos was the last Tiger who really deserved serious consideration, but these are different times for the organization, with several different decision-makers holding the keys. And there are very good reasons why the Tigers may consider trying to convince third baseman Jeimer Candelario to sign
