We get it: Offense is down around the Majors while pitchers establish their early dominance this season. Around the American League Central, that means a lot of normally solid hitters have started off colder than the Midwestern weather. It’s tough to be a hitter in this division these days. Fear not.

The offense struggles of the Detroit Tigers have been well documented in the last week. While it was good to see the offense score more than two runs for the first time last night since the series opener in Oakland, there are some major cracks in the offense Detroit still needs to fix.

After a flurry of top-five finishes in the farm system power rankings by several national…

Let’s get this out of the way:
The Detroit Tigers are off to one of the more inconsistent starts in recent memory; promptly getting swept by the Oakland Athletics after sweeping the Houston Astros in Houston on their most recent road trip. This teeter-totter start has many wondering which is the real Detroit Tigers team–but more likely, we can expect to see…
The last two years haven’t been easy for Detroit Tigers infielder Zack Short. At last, he achieved one of his lifelong goals by making his MLB debut Wednesday. The last month hasn’t been simple for right-hander Spencer Turnbull, either. Turnbull tested positive for COVID-19, missed the beginning of the campaign and finally made his anticipated season debut

The Tigers offense got a power boost in the form of home runs from Niko Goodrum and Jonathan Schoop in a 5-2 win over the Pirates in Game 2 of their doubleheader. Spencer Turnbull turned in a strong 5 innings in his first start of the season. And Akil Baddoo knocked in his team-leading 12th
Jack Leiter unquestionably has been the most dominant college player in the first two months of the season. If he’s not the most famous prospect in the 2021 Draft, then he’s a very close second to fellow Vanderbilt right-hander Kumar Rocker. Will Leiter go No. 1 overall to the Pirates when they make that selection
After a disappointing Wednesday afternoon, the Detroit Tigers rebounded in the night cap of the double header to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-2. Spencer Turnbull was activated off the injured list to make his first start of the season, and boy was it a promising outing. And although it wasn’t a world-altering performance out of
Detroit – On a chilly, 42-degree night, after losing 10 pounds and more than two weeks to the COVID-19 virus, Tigers right-hander Spencer Turnbull needed just one inning to shake off the rust in his 2021 debut. Turnbull, who got put in COVID-19 protocol after his last spring training start on March 10, gave up
DETROIT — One day after Spencer Turnbull joked that he was getting Opening Day weather for his delayed season debut, the Tigers right-hander delivered a performance worthy of a season-opening assignment. In the process, he helped the Tigers salvage a doubleheader split against the Pirates and end a five-game losing streak with a 5-2 win.
Detroit Tigers right-hander Spencer Turnbull took the mound for the first time this season — after a positive COVID-19 test in spring training — and looked electric in his return to the starting rotation. Turnbull guided the Tigers (7-11) to a 5-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates in Game 2 of Wednesday’s seven-inning doubleheader at Comerica Park. The 28-year-old
The Tigers are offering at least two sections of $10 tickets for every home game this season, except for the one obvious game they didn’t, Opening Day.
