And that will
Pete Seeger asked about flowers, and Paula Cole was looking for cowboys, but Detroit Tigers fans just want to know one thing: Where has all the offense gone? Now, no one was confusing the 2021 Detroit Tigers for the 1927 New York Yankees, but for a good three months — from roughly May 1st to…

For those who can’t help but peek over hills and horizons, wondering what’s ahead for a professional sports team, the Tigers offered some potential, if not probable, clues Tuesday.

It just makes sense; the club has over-achieved to a 62-70 record entering Tuesday and they lack a true, in-his-prime, bonafide star in the lineup. They need a middle-of-the-order bat desperately and they have the means…

The Detroit Tigers have dropped four of the last five games to fall eight games under .500, but that is not for a lack of trying. Each of the past six games have ended with a one-run margin, and four of the past nine contests have gone to extras. None of those games have featured
Let’s hope it’s as entertaining as former Detroit Tigers reliever Bruce Rondon slipping on the mound back in 2013 when the A’s took home a 6-3 victory thanks to a rain stoppage. Just kidding. The last time the Detroit Tigers met with the A’s, it wasn’t pretty.

Detroit — It was the best matchup the Tigers could’ve hoped for in the bottom of the ninth inning Monday.
