Detroit Tigers finish the season 78-84. The best record the team has had in 7 years (since 2016).
Detroit finishes 2nd place in the AL Central. Also their best division finish since 2016.
8/21/11: An Austin Jackson strike from CF finishes a sweep of Cleveland and saves Valverde’s perfect season moving the Tigers to 68-58. Detroit would go 27-9 the rest of the season winning 95 games and their first AL Central division title in franchise history.
Casey Mize is pitching a shutout for the Tigers while Cade Cunningham gets drafted by the Pistons and both are hours after Steve Yzerman said Mo Seider is playing for the Red Wings this fall.
Get Buffed up Detroit.
We’re back.

Home Run Totals 2022
Anthony Rendon as a lefty: 1
Every single player who’s played Outfield for the Detroit Tigers this season (Meadows, Haase, Cameron, Baddoo, Grossman, Castro, Reyes, Hill) combined: 2
Juan Soto just rejected $440M.
The Tigers organization bragged for weeks about its owner saying “go get him” when the GM asked if he could take on Austin Meadows $4M salary.
Happy September everybody. With one month left in the season… the race is ON!
2019 Detroit Tigers HR leaders:

2022 Detroit Tigers HR leaders:

MLB using two different kinds of baseballs without telling anyone while going insanely overkill on checking for foreign substances is one of the most on brand hypocrisies I’ve ever seen
Lee is ranked 5th in the Phillies system via pipeline. 20 year old 2B in A+ (was signed internationally at 18 out of Taiwan). Really solid BB%. Pretty low K%. Won’t find a report that doesn’t rave about his approach. I think this is a really solid get for 2 months of Lorenzen
Tigers are close to trading Michael Lorenzen to the Phillies.
Infield prospect Hao-Yu Lee is part of the proposed return heading to Detroit.

70 win season guaranteed. 13 games remaining for Detroit.
- 13-0: 83-79
- 8-5: 78-84 Would be best Tigers record since 2016
- 7-6: 77-83 Would tie 2021 record
- 4-9: 74-88 Would reach my pre-season prediction
- 0-13: 70-92 Would still be Detroit’s second best record since 2016
Miguel Cabrera is less than 100 hits away from 3,000. The next closest to 3k is Robinson Cano at 2624 and he’ll be 39 when he returns with 2 years left on his contract. Then there’s really no one even remotely close. Miggy could be the last 3k hit we see for a really long time
Tarik Skubal motions to George Lombard that he’s done for the day as he limps into the clubhouse. 100.4 MPH exit velo straight to the shin. Tigers on the verge of having all 6 starters from Opening Day injured.
It’s May 20th.
9 games under .500… Packed house and a playoff atmosphere. This city is dying for a good product. Plz spend this off-season. We’re so close to being back, man.

I could keep going. New era with a new mindset.
Javy Baez said he’s battled through lower back and core issues the last two years. With new training routine, he said he feels strong and more like himself. He did not have any surgery, just strengthening those areas.
12-0 to the worst team of the decade. Haven’t scored in 17 straight innings off of Oakland. Broadcast debating what’s an appropriate amount to tip someone at a restaurant. President of ops just said the kids hitting well in Toledo still aren’t ready. Happy days in Detroit.
This team could be 0-100 with the highest payroll in baseball and it wouldn’t stop my excitement for Greene. I simply do not care how bad of a season this is. Riley Greene his him and is an unreal talent and I get to watch him on my baseball team now. Unwavering excitement idc.
Miami Marlins: Worst Record in MLB
SP this series:
Sixto Sanchez: 0 ER (ERA 7.50 going into start)
Ryan Weathers: 8 IP, 0 ER (ERA 4.50+ going into start)
Trevor Rogers: 0 ER (ERA 6.50+ going into start
That’s 0 total ER by Marlins SP this series.
The Detroit Tigers offense.
“So Jalen what’s your favorite color?”
“Detroit SUCKS bruh.”
“Ok…? gotta favorite Netflix show?”
“Honestly i’m not even mad Detroit didn’t take me. Stupid city anyways”
“Alright? Do you have a favorite food?”
“I should’ve been the
#1
overall pick.”
“Thanks for your time.”
8/3/09: Clete Thomas hits a walk-off Home Run to dead center in Comerica Park which caps off a 5 run comeback for the Tigers.
Lots of fun names from Detroit’s past in this video.
Jalen Green says he’s motivated to win rookie of the year after not going
#1
in the draft
“The goal is to win rookie of the year and the fact that I didn't go
#1
is certainly motivation.”
