Tigers News

The Detroit Tigers' struggles continued as they completed a four-game sweep at the hands of the Cleveland Guardians, falling 3-1 despite a strong start from Casey Mize, who boasts an impressive 2.43 ERA. This week has been a nightmare for the Tigers, posting a 1-6 record with a dismal run differential of -16, all while managing a paltry 2.3 runs per game. With Paul DeJong sidelined for the season due to hamstring surgery, the roster is feeling the strain. On a brighter note, Tarik Skubal is inching closer to a return after his recent bullpen session, but the Tigers need immediate help,especially from the bullpen,if they hope to turn this season around. As they prepare to face the Guardians again, fans are left praying for a spark amidst the frostbitten chill of the current performance.

DETROIT -- Tarik Skubal tried to treat his Thursday morning bullpen session like it was a start, all the way to his trademark backwards walk off the mound and fist pump. It wasn’t for a simulated strikeout, though. “It was a certain velocity I was trying to get to today,”

DETROIT -- The fly ball from Guardians leadoff hitter Daniel Schneemann hung in the air for five seconds, according to Statcast. It only felt like five minutes. Considering where Casey Mize’s splitter had wandered over the plate, Schneemann could’ve hit it harder, maybe crushed it to left. But for what
