Just so everybody knows, Tigers manager AJ Hinch isn’t handing out participation trophies and spirit awards here. And while there have been incredible gains made this season, coming off a run of 345 losses in 3½ years of rebuilding, his team still sits seven games under .500 and all but mathematically eliminated from the playoffs. “I
