SEATTLE -- For a second, Troy Melton looked like he was channeling his inner Tarik Skubal. The Tigers’ young starter has earned a reputation among teammates and coaches as a cool customer on the mound, rarely showing emotion -- good or bad -- regardless of situation. But after fanning Seattle

DETROIT -- Casey Mize watched his good friend and longtime teammate Tarik Skubal exit the Tigers via trade on Saturday night. On Monday, it was Mize’s turn. The 2025 All-Star and former No. 1 overall Draft pick is headed to the Padres along with infielder/outfielder Gage Workman for left-handers Kash

While the Tarik Skubal era in Detroit is over, and Casey Mize could be soon to follow, the Tigers could be welcoming a potentially nasty starter back soon. Jackson Jobe tossed four innings of one-run ball with five strikeouts Sunday afternoon in his rehab start for High-A West Michigan.

WEST SACRAMENTO -- The Tarik Skubal era in Detroit is over. The Tigers have traded the back-to-back American League Cy Young Award winner to the Dodgers on Sunday for a prospect package of outfielder Zyhir Hope and right-handers River Ryan and Brady Smith. The package includes two MLB Pipeline Top

DETROIT -- Tarik Skubal is trying his best to stay in the moment, as he puts it, to not think about what could happen at next Monday’s Trade Deadline or beyond. He didn’t want to take thoughts about potentially his final start as a Tiger with him to the mound

DETROIT -- The Tigers lost an outfielder to injury for the second time in four days. Matt Vierling left Wednesday’s 10-9 12-inning loss against the Orioles after suffering a groin injury running out a fifth-inning triple. Vierling, who legged out a double in his first at-bat to help ignite a

DETROIT -- The sight of Javier Báez back at Comerica Park was a boost to morale in the Tigers’ clubhouse. His return to Detroit’s lineup on Tuesday, playing center field against the Orioles, provides a potential spark to a team desperately needing one. The corresponding move, however, was a gut
