Detroit Tigers Roster Snubs

Spring training baseball is done. It’s finally in the books. Meaningful baseball is set to be played tomorrow, and managers are now relieved they won’t have to have those difficult conversations with the players who did not make the team anymore.

Fan Poll: Have the Detroit Tigers done enough to contend in 2024?

Photo by Ron Schwane/Getty Images

We posted a predictions roundtable on Monday, but now on Opening Day, what do you think? Will the Tigers make the playoffs?

The Detroit Tigers finished the 2023 season with a mildly surprising second place finish, posting a winning record of 39-34 in the second half of the season and going 78-84 overall. A nine game losing streak in early June after a bad run of injuries pretty well crushed any hopes of a surprise run at the division. Still that...

Former DBacks Pitcher Makes Tigers Opening Day Roster

Shelby Miller has made the Detroit Tigers Opening Day roster. Miller signed a one-year deal with Detroit in December. The 33-year-old did not see a lot of work in camp, but he was effective.

Ty Madden looks to be staying at Erie a while longer, while Wilmer Flores and Brant Hurter are the top two pitching prospects promoted.

When I previewed the 2024 Toledo Mud Hens roster the other day, we still had a couple of key roster questions. Those have mostly been answered as the Mud Hens unveiled their Opening Day roster for the season on Wednesday. They’ll start the 2024 season at home against the Nashville Sounds starting...

Can’t wait to revisit these at the end of the year...

One of my favorite pre-season rituals is the opportunity to make some genuinely wild predictions for the upcoming year. Sometimes the crazier they are, the more often they seem to become reality.

We love to do this as a group for our annual roundtable discussion, but I figured it would also be fun to turn the crystal ball over to all of you and see what kind of predictions you have...

2024 Tigers season preview: Riley Greene aims to lift his game to the next level

Rick Osentoski-USA TODAY Sports

Riley is a budding superstar but he will need to put it all together if he wants to live up to the hype.

The 2024 season is nearly upon us so it's time to take a look at perhaps the key member of the Detroit Tigers youthful core. Patrolling left field on most nights will be the 23-year-old left-handed outfielder the Tigers selected with the 5th overall pick in 2019. Ever since he was drafted out of Hagerty High School, Riley Greene has carried with him a fairly...

The Toledo Mud Hens should be a force in the International League this season

More importantly, the Tigers have better prospect depth at the Triple-A level to draw on this season than all but a few teams.

While this is a Toledo Mud Hens preview, it’s of course just a part of the Tigers story this season. We’ve written quite a bit about the prospect depth the Detroit Tigers have at their disposal throughout the offseason. The Tigers should have the pitching to compete, but entering the new season the offense...

2024 Tigers season preview: Jack Flaherty looks primed after work in the Tigers pitching lab

Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images

Flaherty has always had an outstanding slider. The Tigers have helped him clean up his mechanics and improve his fastball, setting the stage for a good year.

We’ve learned a few things about new Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jack Flaherty this spring. The past 4-5 years he’s been a depth starter looking to recapture his earlier success, but until the Tigers signed him out of the blue, we hadn’t really looked that deeply into his peak years with the...

2024 Player preview: Kerry Carpenter looks to build on a strong debut

Mike Watters-USA TODAY Sports

The outfielder’s first full season in the bigs was a success. Now he looks to refine his game to take the next step.

With the 2024 season now blessedly just days away, it’s time to look at a player who is perhaps being taken for granted this spring. Kerry Carpenter followed Spencer Torkelson and Riley Greene to the major leagues late in 2022, and so far has surpassed them both with a very nice full season debut in 2023. Carpenter’s dangerous bat...
