As the Detroit Tigers continue their road trip across the NL Central with a three-game series starting in Pittsburgh this afternoon, it does seem rather fitting that Tarik Skubal would take the mound on Labor Day.
CINCINNATI — Nick Castellanos always wanted to be a franchise player for the Detroit Tigers. “That’s ‘Plan A’: I never leave and I play 23 years in the big leagues here and I’m an unbelievable right fielder and now I’m in conversations with Al Kaline,” Castellanos said in January 2018 at TigerFest at Comerica Park. “That’s the dream. That’s
COMSTOCK PARK, MI – West Michigan Whitecaps starting pitcher Sandel De La Cruz enjoyed a dominant spot-start in a 4-2 victory over the Peoria Chiefs in front of 4,625 fans Sunday evening at LMCU Ballpark.

After spending almost the entire season on the injured list, right-hander Julio Teheran has been officially shut down for the remainder of the 2021 campaign. Tigers manager A.J. Hinch told The Athletic’s Cody Stavenhagen and other reporters that the decision was made after Teheran “wasn’t himself” during some recent throwing sessions. Teheran suffered a shoulder
Toledo, Ohio – The Mud Hens out slugged the Omaha Storm Chasers Thursday evening en route to a 11-10 victory. There was a lot on the line for both clubs as they entered the game tied for the division, meaning that the winner would walk away with the divisional lead with just over two weeks
Riley Greene’s first full season of baseball has included many highlights, hot streaks and milestones. His performance on Sunday afternoon allowed him to check another one off his list.

Cincinnati — Casey Mize isn’t fighting it any more. He doesn’t love it, mind you. But he gets it. The dreaded governor — the limited-innings starts — is back and will be with him the rest of the season. “They’ve been very transparent,” he said after starting and pitching three perfect innings in the Tigers’ 4-1 win
Cincinnati — There’s no need to characterize wins. They all count the same. But there was a maturity about the Tigers’ series-clinching 4-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds Sunday at Great American Ball Park that shouldn’t go unappreciated. “Every win is important at this level,” manager AJ Hinch said. “But we did a lot of things

Cincinnati — What the heck was Matthew Boyd doing swinging the bat Saturday night? Yes, he delivered a solid opposite-field base hit in the fourth inning, his third career hit, but given what happened in Milwaukee earlier in the year, the Tigers were hoping he kept the bat on his shoulders. “I think he just reacted,”
The Erie SeaWolves rallied for a come-from-behind win on Sunday afternoon at UPMC Park, knocking off the Harrisburg Senators 3-2 to secure a series win. Andre Lipcius hit his eighth home run of the season early in the contest, and A.J. Ladwig logged his second quality start of the year, but took a no decision.
The rubber match of a three-game weekend series between the Tigers and Reds in the Queen City saw the Motowners take the finale, 4-1, to win said series two games to one on a humid Sunday afternoon. The pitching was solid overall, and some aggressive baserunning paid off. Casey Mize’s 26th start of the season
CINCINNATI — The only opponent Casey Mize couldn’t stop Sunday was his innings plan. The Tigers bullpen picked up their rookie starter, and the two hitters to beat Reds right-hander Luis Castillo were Akil Baddoo and Jeimer Candelario, whose sixth-inning triple drove in two runs and set up another, sending the Tigers on their way
CINCINNATI — Detroit Tigers rookie Casey Mize walked down the dugout steps and received a handshake from manager AJ Hinch. The 24-year-old had a perfect game through three innings, but his manager didn’t let him return to the mound for the fourth. Just as he was in early July, Mize is back to a limited workload
What used to be the old Gulf Coast League has a new title in 2021: The Florida Complex League. It’s the wading pool in baseball’s preparatory depths, and the 2021 FCL has a home-run leader who wears a Tigers uniform. It’s shortstop Manuel Sequera, 18, a 6-foot-1, 170-pound, right-hand hitter who in 39 games for
A subtext to last week’s Tigers moves, which saw some front-office and development staff shuffled, is the team’s big-league manager, AJ Hinch. The Tigers will want to hang onto Hinch every bit as much as they want their on-field product to be playoff-grade — soon. In that context, consider that the moves last week were made
