A few days ago we used Spencer Torkelson’s rough spring as an excuse to dig into some of the worst debuts from Detroit Tigers in history. Spring training stats don’t count as debuts, of course, so we won’t be looking for other stellar exhibition performances like Baddoo’s. And we’ve decided to not count any Rookie…

By Mitch Stacy | Associated Press Cincinnati — Nick Castellanos stood over, flexed and jawed at St. Louis pitcher Jake Woodford after scoring, setting off a series of scuffles that included relievers shoving in the outfield as the Cincinnati Reds beat the Cardinals 9-6 Saturday. St. Louis starter Adam Wainwright was knocked around for six

Mae Anderson | Associated Press News of Major League Baseball’s decision to pull this summer’s All-Star Game from Georgia over its sweeping new voting law reverberated among fans Saturday, while Gov. Brian Kemp vowed to defend the measure, saying “free and fair elections” are worth any threats, boycotts or lawsuits. The Republican governor said at a
With a chance to extend their one-run lead, the Detroit Tigers didn’t miss. Not against AL Central rival Cleveland. Not against right-handed reliever Nick Wittgren, who replaced starter Zach Plesac. The Tigers sent eight batters to the plate in the seventh inning and added three runs, to secure a 5-2 win over the Indians on Saturday at Comerica Park. AJ
Detroit – There will be times this season when manager AJ Hinch makes the right decision at the right time, for the right reasons, and it will backfire. Then there is a game like Saturday when every lever he pulled hit a jackpot. “I enjoy all wins, whether I made good decisions or not,” he said
Detroit Tigers infielder Jonathan Schoop made his MLB debut as a first baseman Saturday against the Cleveland Indians. Without knowing that, it would have been impossible to tell. Primarily a second baseman, the 29-year-old looked natural at a brand-new position in a 5-2 win. The victory marked the first time the Tigers have started a season 2-0
Tigers starter Julio Teheran got the W in today’s game, his first since 2019. He chats with the media, Macho Man belt and all. #DetroitRoots
That’s 2 wins to start the 2021 campaign for the Tigers and A.J. Hinch is enjoying it. Here he is with his postgame thoughts. #Leinenkugel
A big 3-for-4 day from Jeimer Candelario helped the Tigers to a 5-2 win over the Cleveland ballclub. He takes some time post game to catch up with papi himself, Johnny Kane. #DetroitRoots
Two appearances into spring training games, Detroit Tigers left-hander Derek Holland — a non-roster invitee on a minor-league contract — was positive he would make the Opening Day roster. He felt confident and took a chance on his instincts. Next, two important purchases were made. Holland, 34, already utilized his old WWE tag-team championship belts for golf tournaments
Nothing explosive happened in this one. Instead, the Tigers executed well when needed, putting together tough at-bat after tough at-bat against Cleveland pitching. Meanwhile, starter Julio Teheran and the rebuilt Tigers bullpen were up to the task as they led the club to a 5-2 win on a nice Saturday afternoon at Comerica Park. Tigers
Detroit – Here’s a sentence you haven’t heard much in recent years. The Tigers have won two straight over the Cleveland Indians. After beating the reigning American League Cy Young winner Shane Bieber 3-2 on Opening Day, they broke open a close game with a three-run seventh inning in a 5-2 win Saturday. For six innings,

DETROIT — If the Tigers can put together a productive lineup to go with their talented young pitching and surprise people this season, they’ll have the Indians and their former All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor partly to thank. For now, they can thank a long-ago deal in part for Detroit’s first 2-0 start in five years.
Detroit — It’s enough to make a player wistful, nostalgic even. Derek Holland, once upon a time, could ring a radar gun — 95 mph, 96, occasionally bump it to 97. And even now at age 34, he can still bring it in pretty firm (94-95 mph in his shorter bullpen stints). Which he can
