Tigers News
Dillon Dingler's hard work has paid off, earning him the 2026 Heart and Hustle award, a testament to his impressive season despite recent struggles. Last night's disappointing 2-4 loss to the Washington Nationals only adds to the Tigers’ woes, as they now sit at 74-85 and have endured a rough 2-5 stretch over the past week. With an uninspiring run differential of -5 during that span, the offense, averaging just 3.7 runs per game, has failed to support a pitching staff that's given up 4.4 runs per game. Amid this downturn, the Tigers have locked in their broadcast duo, Dan Dickerson and Jason Benetti, with multi-year extensions, ensuring fans will continue to hear their familiar voices. As the season winds down, the looming farewell for Justin Verlander during the final weekend in Detroit adds a bittersweet note to the team's struggles.
