The Nationals have made several moves this offseason, mainly to their lineup and bench, adding the likes of Corey Dickerson, Dominic Smith, Stone Garrett and Jeimer Candelario. For a team that really struggled to provide any sort of pop after the trades of Juan Soto and Josh Bell at the trade deadline, it's good to see them bring in new players to…

SAN DIEGO - Here's one thing that is not a secret: The Tigers, for way too long, struggled in the realm of player development. They did not produce enough international hitters. They did not find and develop international talent. When their rebuild began around 2017, the farm system was largely barren. And as has been well-documented, the Tigers…

Davey Martinez talks often about his routine of going home - once he finally leaves the ballpark every day - and re-watching games each night during the season. Following his fifth campaign on the bench in Washington, D.C., which the Nationals finished at 55-107, the bench boss spent some time looking back to assess what did and didn't work for a…

Just being able to write about the Detroit Tigers and any sort of realistic shot at making the playoffs is so refreshing, when such thoughts have been non existent for the past five years, basically since former owner Mike Ilitch passed away. But here we are, with the much heralded prospects arriving in the major leagues and the team actually…

An ugly 114-loss season in 2019, which followed on the heels of back-to-back 98-loss seasons in 2017 and 2018, would suggest that the Tigers' grueling rebuild has hit a low point, from which the only way to go is up. But was that really the bottom? And has a corner been turned? At the very least, their front office's piecemeal approach to the…

The American League Central-leading Minnesota Twins look to extend their road winning streak to five games when they visit the division-rival Detroit Tigers on Monday afternoon for the opener of their five-game series.

SAN DIEGO - Last winter's MLB lockout prevented teams from being in touch with their players. That had a long list of detrimental effects.

In the videos, Hinch…

Back on the winning side! We were one strike away from a perfect 3-0 leather jacket today. The Astros decided that Ryan Pressly was the best man to close out the ninth off an injury. He wasn't; he left a hanging curveball that was launched into the seats to tie the game up. We lost on the spread, but our other picks BANGED. I said yesterday the…

The Nationals aren't going to make the playoffs in 2023. They probably won't even sniff.500; unsurprisingly, the team that traded Juan Soto along with everything that wasn't nailed down this past season isn't quite ready to compete for division titles. That doesn't mean they shouldn't try to get better, though - when the next generation of…

Although the Tigers finished last in the AL Central in 2020 for the third time in four years, there was ample evidence of a corner slowly being turned - whether in the arrival of a quartet of prospects (pitchers Casey Mize and Tarik Skubal, infielder Isaac Paredes, and outfielder Daz Cameron), the breakouts of Willi Castro and Jeimer Candelario or…

Then, out of nowhere a deal was reached and optimism kicked in. Now that the season…

Drew Hutchison's exit from the Detroit Tigers' roster happened so fast that we didn't even have a chance to include him on the "really vulnerable" list for this offseason. Nothing against Hutchison, who was second on the Tigers' in innings pitched in 2022, but there was little doubt that he would be off the roster by the first week in the…

And so another Detroit Tigers season comes to a close. This wraps up the fourth season we've been doing this newsletter and, well, we certainly can't say there's been a pattern. 2019, with its mere 47 wins (and the very real shot at the AL loss record), was just a six-month dumpster fire. (Though that might be unkind to dumpster fires, which at…
