Carlos Rodon has a tough assignment tonight, facing the Los Angeles Dodgers and their fearsome lineup, but we think he's up to the task of surpassing his strikeouts prop of 6.5. He's one of our three favorite prop plays on a light MLB schedule. Baseball is back with a short slate to kick off the second half of the season on Thursday. With only six…

This Saturday, the game's brightest prospects will gather at Dodger Stadium for the 2022 Futures Game. The Futures Game is MLB's annual showcase of the sport's best prospective big leaguers, some of whom will make their big-league debut in the second half. And you know what? Some will be traded at the deadline. That's how it has been throughout…

Javier Báez is headed to Detroit on a six-year, $140 million deal, The Athletic confirmed on Tuesday. The deal is pending a physical. Báez, who turns 29 Dec. 1, will be the third on the list of top free-agent shortstops to sign in the last few days, with both Marcus Semien (seven years, $175 million) and Corey Seager (10 years, $325 million)…

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…

The big day is finally here. Opening Day in Detroit, and we're going to have a good time. It doesn't hurt that the season begins with the foe the Tigers will need to take down to ever reclaim control over the AL Central. With the Chicago White Sox first on the docket, the intensity level should be high even if the the reigning division champs still…

Baseball, more than any other major sport, is unpredictable. The season is a marathon and with injuries and regression always remaining a possibility, the crystal ball stays cloudy most of the time. This was especially true for the Detroit Tigers, who brought in some veteran help like Javier Baez, Eduardo Rodriguez, and Tucker Barnhart, but they…

What was once billed a year of progress, is a huge disappointment, as the team took multiple steps backwards.With a new GM on the way, much is still to be determined, but since writing about the 2022 Tigers sucks the life out of my soul, let's take a look at my semi realistic but ideal 2023 Detroit Tigers lineup. Let's start with the top, there is…

It's almost draft time and that means new prospects will soon enter the fold of the Detroit Tigers organization. It also means there will be some decisions to make regarding who to take based an a number of different factors. The Tigers pick 12th overall when the draft kicks off on Sunday, July 17th. Before jumping into potential targets for…

DUNEDIN, Fla. - The Detroit Tigers lost to the Toronto Blue Jays, 4-3, on Monday at TD Ballpark, falling to 9-11 in Grapefruit League play. Trying to put the finishing touches on securing a roster spot, right-hander Julio Teheran started and made 30 pitches (21 strikes) across two innings. He departed early for precautionary reasons involved with…

With the Super Bowl now in the rearview mirror and March Madness still weeks away, this would normally be the time of year when talk of the upcoming MLB season starts to heat up. Alas, the lockout rages on with no end in sight. But that doesn't mean we can't still look ahead to how the 2022 season might shake out once MLB and the MLBPA put an end…

The Detroit Tigers will head into the 2022 season with the hopes of capitalizing on a weak division after going 77-85 in 2021. They possess a young roster and added a few veteran pieces this offseason with the hopes to flip into "win-now" mode. Doc's Sports offers MLB expert picks for every game on our baseball predictions page. Notable…

On March 31, 2019, Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Elvis Luciano became the first player born in the 2000s to reach the big leagues. In the years since, a wave of talented young players who weren't even born when Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire were chasing down Roger Maris during the 1998 season has descended on Major League Baseball. 2022 Rookie of…

Light can now be seen at the end of the tunnel for the Tigers. A brutal rebuild that has led to seven seasons without a playoff appearance on the heels of four straight division titles is finally starting to pay off. Detroit's 77 wins last season were the second-most in that seven-year span, trailing only the 2016 season that felt like the team's…

Justin Verlander will turn 40-years old in February. Nevertheless, the 2022 Cy Young hopeful will receive plenty of interest on the MLB free agent market. But where should Verlander sign in what could be the final contract of his historic career. There are 3 teams that standout as good fits for Verlander. One team is an obvious choice. The second…

The weather is expected to be mildly humid with a 4.8% chance of rain and 17 miles per hour winds. The Minnesota Twins are coming off of a 2 run win against the Detroit Tigers in their last game.…

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…

For the first time in a long time, Detroit Tigers fans are ready to ring in a new year with optimism. Or well-founded optimism, anyway.

No one knows how long the lockout will last, but…
