The fans at Comerica Park stood on their feet numerous times. They kept cheering for Miguel Cabrera. He deserved all the ovations. The Detroit Tigers (44-51) swung their way to a 14-0 victory over the Texas Rangers in Monday’s series opener at Comerica Park — behind Cabrera’s three-run double in the fifth inning and two-run single in the
Detroit – Casey Mize came off the mound after four strong innings Monday and the last person he wanted to see was his manager. He entered the dugout on the opposite end from where AJ Hinch was perched. He kept his back to Hinch as long as he could but he knew he couldn’t avoid

A sore calf and injured finger has left Niko Goodrum off the baseball diamond in recent weeks, but some minor bumps and bruises won’t be enough to stop him from honoring a new tradition. The Detroit Tigers infielder on Tuesday will be at Asbury United Methodist Church in Flint at 10 a.m. to gift 275 cases of water to
Detroit — Here’s a topic to chew on: Should the Tigers be receptive to trade offers for Jeimer Candelario before the July 30 deadline? Some ground rules before we go further with this discussion: While the Tigers have taken some exploratory calls on Candelario from other teams — they have taken cursory calls on several players — he
Detroit — That’s one down. The Tigers on Monday announced they have signed right-handed pitcher Ty Madden, the 32nd overall pick in the Major League Baseball Draft earlier this month. Slot value for that pick is $2,257,300; it’s believed Madden signed for slightly more. Madden was 7-5 with a 2.45 ERA as a red-shirt sophomore,
(Photo by Nic Antaya/Getty Images) The highest branch of the Detroit Tigers’ farm system is Triple-A Toledo, and they pleased their fans and spectators all around with a dazzling 3-0 victory over a feisty Iowa Cubs roster.

The Detroit Tigers today agreed to terms with RHP Ty Madden, the 32nd overall pick in the 2021 MLB Draft, which the Tigers were awarded in the Competitive Balance A round. Madden joins the Tigers organization after three seasons at the University of Texas, including a standout redshirt sophomore season, during which he posted a
What a weekend. Twenty four year old Collin Morikawa won the British Open in his first ever appearance, the hip-hop world lost a legend in Biz Markie, and, oh yeah, the Tigers — despite a pitching staff being held together by craft glue and duck tape — swept the Twins. That last one was fun.
In yesterday’s victory over the Minnesota Twins yesterday afternoon to complete the sweep, there were a few highlights that the Detroit Tigers did to make this possible. Let’s start with Derek Hill’s steal in the 3rd inning. He would later score on a Miguel Cabrera single that made the game at that point 2 to…
So, when, exactly, do we start worrying about the Detroit Tigers’ rotation? Remember the Opening Day rotation? Matthew Boyd, followed by Julio Teheran (remember him?), Tarik Skubal, Jose Urena and Casey Mize, with Spencer Turnbull on the way and Michael Fulmer waiting in middle relief in case a spot opened up. It wasn’t quite the
Toledo Mud Hens 3, Iowa Cubs 0 (box) The Hens jumped out to an early lead and the pitching staff did the rest to take the series four games to two. Willi Castro, playing shortstop and leading off, opened the game with a solo shot to right field. Renato Nuñez followed him with a triple
Phil Coke, the former Detroit Tigers reliever, pumped his fists and banged the divider in a suite at Comerica Park. “LET’S GO!” he screamed in the eighth inning of Saturday’s second game of a doubleheader against the Minnesota Twins. Coke waved his arms, trying to wake up Tigers fans, urging them to get on their
COMSTOCK PARK, MI – The Fort Wayne TinCaps exploded on offense, riding a six-run fifth inning to a 9-2 win over the West Michigan Whitecaps on Sunday evening at LMCU Ballpark. Whitecaps starting pitcher Brendan White retired the first 13 TinCaps hitters in order before Fort Wayne collected six tallies in the fifth to steal
One of those six position bats the Tigers grabbed 13 months ago in the 2020 Major League Baseball Draft was a fifth-round pick assorted analysts thought might be a coup: Colt Keith of Biloxi (Mississippi) High. Keith was a 6-foot-3, 200-pound, left-handed stick who looked as if he could play a variety of infield spots,
Toledo, Ohio – The Mud Hens secured a series victory over the Iowa Cubs this evening by a score of 3-0. The game was highlighted by great pitching for Toledo with starter Mark Leiter Jr. leading the charge. Leiter Jr.’s start was one of his best of the season, posting a final line of 5.0

Tyler Alexander laughed as he described himself as a “utility relief pitcher” for the Detroit Tigers in 2021. He doesn’t pitch in high leverage situations, but he isn’t an arm manager AJ Hinch is willing to waste in the late innings of a blowout. Hinch offered a more appropriate title: “Unheralded hero.” “He doesn’t get a lot of love all
