Who are these people and what have they done with the Tigers’ offense?

After a series of struggles against three pretty mediocre Miami Marlins’ starters, the Tigers came out red hot in this one. Tarik Skubal was awesome as usual, and didn’t need the help, but it was certainly good to see the Tigers dish out this level of beatdown after a rough stretch as they torched the Diamondbacks for an fun 13-0 victory.

Following an unsuccessful home stand, the Motor City Kitties hit the road for the next six games.

The month of May has been quite unkind to the Detroit Tigers, who lost all four of their series so far after dropping two of three at home to the Miami Marlins this past week. The Motor City Kitties have struggled a bit at Comerica Park and perhaps the upcoming six-game road trip will cure that ails them.

The first stop on the two-city tour is...

Scores, news, and notes, from around the Detroit Tigers’ farm system for Thursday, May 16, 2024.

Detroit Tigers Floated As Potential Landing Spot For Star Pitcher

The Detroit Tigers look like a team that will be on the fence about what to do with their roster this season. They have been playing right around .500 baseball to this point and most of their stats point to being an average team across the board.

Scores, news, and notes, from around the Detroit Tigers’ farm system for Wednesday, May 15, 2024.

They cancelled Wednesday’s game because of a wet field, after Tuesday’s was rained out. So it will be a doubleheader matinee on Thursday with Bryan Sammons (4-2, 3.74 ERA) getting the start in Game 1. RHP Keider Montero should be on schedule to pitch Game 2. First pitch for Game 1 is set for 11:05 a.m. ET.

Javier Baez still being on the Tigers is an indictment against team owner

Javier Baez, what would you say...you do here? That's the question Detroit Tigers owner Christopher Ilitch should be asking the man once known as "El Mago."

I swear I’ve seen the Tigers score runs before.

I’m going to start with the good part: Casey Mize continues to look good on the mound.

The bad, however, is that the Tigers got trounced by the Marlins AGAIN, and it’s just not fun to watch when that happens, so if you were working this afternoon and not able to watch, then lucky you.

Trevor Rogers was on the mound for the Marlins, up against rebounding Mize, and as pitching duals go, it was a...

Organizational sweep goes the wrong way for the Tigers’ farm

Scores, news, and notes, from around the Detroit Tigers’ farm system for Tuesday, May 14, 2024.

Game 1 of this set was rained out on Tuesday evening. Keider Montero was scheduled to start, so presumably he’ll get the ball tomorrow, moving Brant Hurter to Thursday, when they’ll play a day doubleheader to make up this one.

Carlos Peña was knocked around pretty badly early in this one...

David Reginek-USA TODAY Sports

Both starting pitchers had the game of their respective lives, but the Marlins squeaked a run through in the extra frame to lock down the win.

The Tigers came back to win Monday night’s game in a thrilling victory, but there would be no such comeback on Tuesday night as Detroit dropped a 1-0 contest to the Marlins in 10 innings.

The hardest-luck of hard-luck pitchers these days, Reese Olson, started for the home team tonight. Look, I know that “pitcher...
