As a child of the ’80s, three things were ingrained into my childhood. 1. Detroit Tigers baseball, 2. Sci-fi and cartoons (Transformers, Ghostbusters) and 3. Whatever music my older brother listened to.

Detroit — The goalposts have moved. Whatever the expectations were coming into the season, they are different now. Not exactly lofty, by any means. But bigger. The Tigers, since May 8, posted a 31-27 record leading into the All-Star break. They did that without two of their top starters, without — for the most part —

Izaac Pacheco provides power as a left-handed hitter. His hands and feet are smooth enough to guarantee defensive stability somewhere on the field and his arm is powerful and accurate. It’s easy to imagine Pacheco hitting fifth or sixth in a big-league batting order, possibly as a third baseman or corner outfielder. But the Detroit Tigers

Witt Jr. launched his 14th home run of the season — a
No, Gregory Soto didn’t get to pitch to Juan Soto like he wanted in Tuesday’s All-Star Game at Coors Field. The Tigers reliever missed the Nationals slugger by one batter. The former still seemed to have an enjoyable time at the Midsummer Classic, J.T. Realmuto home run aside. Soto, the Tigers’ lone representative at this
Before the Detroit Tigers clashed with the Chicago White Sox on July 4, Gregory Soto learned he would represent his team in All-Star Game.

After a 7-3 loss to the Twins on May 7, the Tigers were a dismal 9-24, and Jonathan Schoop was hitting only .185/.217/.250 through his first 115 plate appearances of the 2021 season. Since that date, however, things have greatly improved for both player and team. Detroit has quietly gone 31-27 over the last two-plus
