TOLEDO, Ohio – Spencer Torkelson, Riley Greene and Ryan Kreidler all recorded an RBI in their Triple-A debuts as the Toledo Mud Hens cruised to a 7-1 victory over the Indianapolis Indians on Tuesday at Fifth Third Field.

DETROIT — Miguel Cabrera’s quest for his 500th career home run will intersect with Shohei Ohtani’s much-anticipated start at Comerica Park on Wednesday night. But the Tigers will be just as concerned about getting their offensive mojo back against one of baseball’s nastiest pitchers. For a fourth consecutive game, fans packed the outfield seats Tuesday
It’s safe to say that no pitcher is going to have a good night every single time they take the mound. That’s certainly true of Casey Mize, who has been working consistently to find himself as a major league pitcher, and overall has done a great job of it. All this serves as a polite

Miguel Cabrera is headed for the Hall of Fame, but put him in the Hall of Fun, too. The Tigers slugger, who is one home run shy of 500 for his career, had a good-hearted moment with another American League star who’s quite familiar with hitting baseballs out of the park. When Shohei Ohtani reached
Detroit — Hard to believe, but this was Jose Iglesias’ first game back at Comerica Park since he parted ways with the Tigers after the 2018 season. “It’s great to be back, to see the love from the fans,” Iglesias said, waving to a couple of fans behind the Angels dugout who were holding a “Welcome

Spencer Torkelson was with his parents at their hotel room in Erie, Pa., when he got the call from SeaWolves manager Tom Prince that he was on the move. Riley Greene was with family, too, having dinner with his grandparents. Once the Tigers’ top prospects and good friends realized that they, along with shortstop prospect
Tigers top prospect Spencer Torkelson made the most of his time in AA Erie, and now he’s gotten the call to AAA Toledo. From his manager to his teammates, everyone agrees that “Tork” has the makings of an impact player.
Detroit Tigers manager AJ Hinch turned his head and looked to home plate at Comerica Park, where outfielders Akil Baddoo and Derek Hill were taking swings off the pitching machine before Tuesday’s series opener with the Los Angeles Angels. “Well, it looks like they’re hitting,” Hinch said sarcastically. His two youngest and most exciting outfielders
Detroit — Turns out, the debate wasn’t whether or not to promote top prospects Spencer Turnbull and Riley Greene, as well as shortstop Ryan Kreidler, to Triple-A Toledo. The debate was whether to send them as a package or one at a time. There wasn’t much pushback on promoting them. “The organization really felt like the challenge
The Tigers announced they’ve placed right-hander Buck Farmer on unconditional release waivers. Upon clearing the waiver wire, he’ll become a free agent. Farmer was designated for assignment over the weekend. The move brings to an end Farmer’s eight-year tenure with the Tigers. Selected in the fifth round of the 2013 draft, Farmer pitched his way to
Logistically, they’re only 75 miles from Detroit. From a baseball-skills perspective, they’re a bit farther. But that promotion to Triple-A Toledo that came Sunday for Riley Greene, Spencer Torkelson, Ryan Kreidler, and Brady Policelli, was about the Tigers’ plans for 2022 and beyond, and where they see at least three of the above as spring
Now that the Tigers have finished their 19 season games against Cleveland, it’s time to turn their attention towards another team that has always been something of a thorn in their side: the Los Angeles Angels. The Angels aren’t having their strongest season, in spite of an incredible performance both on the mound and in
For the second weekend in a row, the Tigers dropped two of three to Cleveland, missing another chance to move into second place. While second in the AL Central is fairly meaningless in the postseason picture, being able to finish the season there would represent a huge win for the rebuilding club. Just as playing
The Detroit Tigers believe in Willi Castro’s offense. He’s not quite the defensive shortstop the Tigers were banking on, but the truth is the organization won’t care if he never plays shortstop again. They just want to see his bat spark, as it did in 2020 during an American League Rookie of the Year race. To
