I'm a lifelong Tigers fan living in West Michigan, and a staunch supporter of bat-flips.

Articles

Francisco Liriano Undone By Three-Run Inning

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Francisco Liriano notched a quality start on Friday, but allowed a three-run inning in the fourth that ultimately sunk the Tigers. The veteran lefty scattered seven hits and four walks over six innings. He has a 3.99 ERA on the year and his record sits at 3-4.


Jeimer Candelario Clubs 12th Homer Friday

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario hit his 12th homer on Thursday, a solo shot off Marcus Stroman in the seventh inning of Detroit's loss to the Blue Jays. The blast brought his season RBI total to 32. The youngster has been getting on base consistently with an OBP of .342, but he's been struggling […]


Michael Fulmer Faces Athletics Thursday

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Michael Fulmer will face off against Oakland in the series finale on Thursday, hoping to lead the Tigers to victory and avoid a sweep. He'll have his work cut out for him, as the Tigers have struggled mightily as of late, and Oakland isn't exactly a great matchup for him due […]


Niko Goodrum's Struggles Continue

Detroit Tigers utility man Niko Goodrum has become an everyday player this season, primarily playing second base and outfield. He's got a little bit of value in deeper, AL-only leagues with seven homers and six steals on the year, especially considering that he has eligibility at five positions. But over the last seven games, Goodrum […]


Mike Fiers Strong Against Oakland

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Mike Fiers put together a stellar performance on Wednesday against the Oakland A's. The veteran pitcher tossed seven innings of one-run ball, scattering five hits and a walk while striking out five. Despite his best efforts, he still ended up in the loss column for this one, as he was outdone […]


James McCann Out Of Wednesday Lineup

Detroit Tigers catcher James McCann is not in the lineup Wednesday against Oakland. McCann has struggled mightily over the last seven games, batting just .158 over that span. He's replaced in the lineup by youngster Grayson Greiner, who has hit .244 across 12 games this season.


Tigers Fire Chris Bosio

The Detroit Tigers announced Wednesday that they have terminated the contract of pitching coach Chris Bosio, effective immediately. The official statement released by the club states that Bosio made "insensitive comments" to a team employee, and some sources have speculated that the comments may have been racially charged. Bosio had been an effective coach this […]


Jordan Zimmermann Works Scoreless Outing

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jordan Zimmermann pitched just five innings on Monday, but he didn't allow any runs and struck out three while scattering four hits. It appeared that Zimmermann, who is in just his second game back off the disabled list with a right shoulder impingement, must have been working on a pitch count, […]


Nicholas Castellanos Doubles, Homers

Detroit Tigers right fielder Nicholas Castellanos finished Monday's game 2-for-5 with three RBI as the Tigers fell to the A's. The hard-hitting outfielder knocked his 24th double of the year and also clubbed his 10th homer, a three-run blast in the seventh off Lou Trivino. Castellanos has struggled over the last 15 games, batting just […]


Joe Jimenez, Shane Greene Blow Lead For Loss

The Detroit Tigers bullpen fell down on the job Monday as Joe Jimenez and Shane Greene combined to allow four earned runs and blow the game for the Tigers. Jimenez entered in the seventh with a four-run lead and two men on, one of which scored. He wasn't charged with that run, but he then […]


Matthew Boyd Shelled By Cleveland

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd was annihilated by the Cleveland offense on Sunday, allowing six runs in just three innings of work. Things really got out of hand when Artie Lewicki couldn't do any better, allowing six more runs in 4 1/3 innings. Boyd's rough outing pushes his season ERA up to 4.15. After […]


Jordan Zimmermann Tabbed For Monday Start

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jordan Zimmermann will take the bump on Monday as the Tigers take on the A's. It will be his second start back from the disabled list, where he spent well over a month with a right shoulder impingement. In his first game back, he was unimpressive but not terrible, allowing three […]


Jose Iglesias Collects Three Hits

Detroit Tigers shortstop Jose Iglesias had three hits Wednesday against the Reds to continue his hot hitting streak. Over his last seven games, the veteran has hit .391 with three RBI and two steals, and has struck out just twice over 23 at-bats. The hot streak has raised his season average to .273, and he's […]


Jeimer Candelario Breaks Slump With Two Hits, Homer

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario entered Wednesday's game against Cincinnati with just four hits over his last 10 games, but he busted out of that slump in a big way. Candelario went deep to the opposite field in the first inning off starting pitcher Tyler Mahle for his 11th homer of the season. He […]


Michael Fulmer Hoping To Build Off Last Start

Detroit TIgers starting pitcher Michael Fulmer will toe the rubber Wednesday against the Reds in Cincinnati, and it's a favorable matchup for the former American League Rookie of the Year. Fulmer is coming off two straight performances in which he threw seven innings of one-run ball, and although he hasn't faced the Reds before, it's […]


John Hicks Not Starting Wednesday

The new everyday first baseman for the Detroit Tigers, John Hicks, will get a breather on Wednesday. Filling in for the injured Miguel Cabrera (biceps), Hicks has moved over from his role as the backup catcher to occupy first base. He has been hitting out of the fifth slot in the order, but with no […]


Leonys Martin Gets Three Hits, Drives In Two

Detroit Tigers outfielder Leonys Martin did everything he could to ignite the Tigers offense on Tuesday in Cincinnati, but it was all for naught as they fell to the Reds 9-5. Martin had three hits and two walks out of his usual leadoff spot and also drove in two of the Tigers five runs, all […]


Jose Iglesias Steals Career-High 12th Base

Detroit Tigers shortstop Jose Iglesias swiped his 12th base of the season on Tuesday, setting a career high despite being just 70 games into the campaign. He's only been caught stealing on three occasions. The veteran shortstop is a possible trade chip for the Tigers this year as they're in the midst of a rebuild. […]


Daniel Norris Will Throw Off Mound Wednesday

Detroit Tigers pitcher Daniel Norris has been rehabbing in Lakeland after undergoing groin surgery earlier this year. Club sources report that the young lefty will throw off a mound on Wednesday, the first time he will have done so since landing on the disabled list on April 30. Norris could be back in action sometime […]


Francisco Liriano Will Rejoin Rotation Soon

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Francisco Liriano is nearing a return from the disabled list, and manager Ron Gardenhire says he will rejoin the starting rotation despite the stellar performance by Blaine Hardy in Liriano's absence. The veteran lefty is scheduled to start over the weekend against Cleveland, his first start since May 26. Hardy, meanwhile, […]


Alex Faedo and Daz Cameron Promoted By Tigers

In prospect news, the Detroit Tigers promoted two of their top young stars last week. No. 9 prospect, outfielder Daz Cameron, and No. 3 prospect, pitcher Alex Faedo, were both promoted to Double-A Erie from Single-A Lakeland. Cameron, son of former MLB star Mike Cameron, has hit .260 with three homers and 10 stolen bases. […]


Joe Jimenez Picks Up Save

Detroit Tigers reliever Joe Jimenez worked a perfect ninth inning and struck out the side against the White Sox on Sunday to pick up his second save of the season. Normally the team's setup man, Jimenez was called upon to fill in as the closer with Shane Greene unavailable. Greene had earned saves in each […]


Jeimer Candelario Scuffling At The Plate

Deroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario has been a relatively consistent hitter this season, but he's going through a rough patch right now. After Sunday's hitless affair against the White Sox, Candelario is now batting just .105 over the last week of action. He's still taking his walks, with six free passes in as many […]


Alex Wilson Extends Scoreless Inning Streak

Detroit Tigers reliever Alex Wilson came into the seventh inning Sunday against the White Sox and tossed 1 1/3 innings of scoreless ball, extending his scoreless innings streak to 11 innings over his last 10 appearances. Wilson spent about a month on the disabled list earlier this season with a tear in his plantar fascia, […]


Nicholas Castellanos Homers In Victory

Detroit Tigers outfielder Nicholas Castellanos blasted his ninth home run of the season Sunday against the White Sox as the Tigers completed a three-game sweep in the Windy City. The young slugger took James Shields deep for a two-run blast in the first inning. Castellanos has been hitting consistently, but the power has taken a […]


Jordan Zimmermann Will Return Saturday

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jordan Zimmermann (shoulder) will be activated from the disabled list to start Saturday against the White Sox. Zimmermann has been on the DL since May 8 with a right shoulder impingement and has made three rehab starts across two minor league levels since then. He turned in two straight scoreless starts […]


Miguel Cabrera Has Successful Surgery

Detroit Tigers first baseman Miguel Cabrera (biceps) had successful surgery to repair a ruptured biceps tendon on Thursday. The recovery process is a lengthy one, with Cabrera unable to resume baseball activities for around six months. He's done for the season, but should be ready for 2019 spring training if all goes well. He finishes […]


Michael Fulmer Thrives, Beats Twins

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Michael Fulmer turned in an excellent performance on Thursday against the Minnesota Twins. The hard-throwing righty tossed seven innings of one-run ball, striking out four and walking just one to lead the Tigers to a series win against their AL Central foes. Fulmer is 3-5 on the year with a 4.13 […]


John Hicks Will See More Playing Time

Detroit Tigers first baseman and catcher John Hicks just saw his fantasy stock increase. With the injury to Miguel Cabrera (biceps) that will require season-ending surgery, Hicks will be the recipient of considerably more playing time. Though he had been the backup catcher, he will slot in as the everyday first baseman for now, and […]


With Miguel Cabrera Out, Jeimer Candelario Bats Third

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario had been settling into his role as the Tigers cleanup hitter as of late, but that was before the season-ending injury to Miguel Cabrera (biceps). In Wednesday's game against the Twins, Candelario moved up to bat third, planted squarely between Nicholas Castellanos and Victor Martinez. Candelario has arguably been the […]
