Tigers News
After a stinging three-game losing streak, the Tigers turned the tide dramatically with a 14-0 rout over the Baltimore Orioles, a performance not seen since 1935, showcasing their offensive power and Troy Melton’s stellar pitching (5-1, 1.95 ERA). This win comes on the heels of a tough roster shake-up, with the Tigers designating catcher Jake Rogers for assignment to make way for the return of Javier Báez from the injured list. As the Trade Deadline looms, all eyes are on Tarik Skubal, who stands on the brink of a significant milestone with 999 career strikeouts, potentially preparing for his last start as a Tiger. Despite their improved performance, the Tigers still sit at 50-56, highlighting the urgency for consistency amid swirling trade rumors.
