The lingering storyline and elephant in the room - for Minnesota and MLB at large - is Carlos Correa's situation with the Mets. The shortstop agreed to terms with Steve Cohen and New York more than two weeks ago, but still no contract has been signed as the Mets - like the Giants before them - ran into concerns in Correa's physical. It's a bizarre…

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…

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.

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…

The Detroit Tigers will take on the Seattle Mariners for the last time in the MLB regular season at the T-Mobile Park on Wednesday (October 5). The Mariners ended their two-game losing streak with consecutive wins in Tuesday's doubleheader against their current opponents. The Tigers were on an incredible run of form, losing their last two but will…

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…

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. Unfortunately, this is the first time in an even longer time that Major League Baseball and its players are engaged in a labor dispute leading to a work stoppage. No one knows how long the lockout will last, but…

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The goal of the hitters at the bottom of the Guardians' lineup is to get on base so the hitters at the top of the lineup can drive them home. It sounds so simple, right? Guardians catchers Austin Hedges and Luke Maile have spent the season in the lower reaches of the lineup. For a long time, they weren't able to get the top of…
