DETROIT -- This is why Riley Greene spent his offseason seeing tougher pitches in the cage, not just batting practice fastballs. This is why the Tigers’ All-Star slugger spent Spring Training working on his plate discipline and not just swinging for the fences.

The Tigers officially entered a new era of broadcast on Monday with the launch of Detroit SportsNet, a year-round TV and streaming home for the Tigers and Red Wings.

Now this is what you call a showdown. Two-time defending AL Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal will climb the mound opposite 2022 NL Cy Young Award winner Sandy Alcantara on Sunday afternoon at Comerica Park as the Tigers host the Marlins. Hits will almost certainly be hard to come

The 2026 season is still only a few weeks old, but plenty of players have stood out in the early going. In many cases, high-level performances are expected -- nobody is surprised that players like Shohei Ohtani, Yordan Alvarez, Corbin Carroll, Cristopher Sánchez and Bryan Woo have excelled to begin

MINNEAPOLIS -- The in-game entertainment crew at Target Field does a popular celebrity lookalike promotion in the middle of the third inning, pointing out faces in the crowd that look like movie stars or famous athletes or characters. On Tuesday, they panned to the Tigers radio booth and play-by-play broadcaster

Not every star rookie makes an Opening Day roster. Take last year, for example. The most devastating rookie in baseball, Nick Kurtz, didn't join the Athletics until April 23 and slashed .290/.383/.619 with 36 homers in 117 games. Cade Horton arrived in May for the Cubs and posted a 2.67

MINNEAPOLIS -- The last time Tarik Skubal lost to the Twins, Luis Arraez was batting third for Minnesota, Austin Meadows was playing right field for Detroit and Tucker Barnhart was Skubal’s catcher. That was April 28, 2022, when Skubal was still mastering the changeup that would soon make him one

The baseball season is back and 2026's Opening Weekend was certainly one for the books. There was no shortage of action, drama, and the introduction of the ABS challenge system still has the league buzzing. But, it was the rookies that stole the show. Chase DeLauter (CLE No. 2 prospect)

DETROIT -- The 0-2 slider from Keider Montero dropped in on Cardinals slugger Iván Herrera, leading off the fourth inning. The grid on the Peacock broadcast showed the pitch just off the outside corner; plate umpire Mark Wegner saw it the same way. Tigers catcher Dillon Dingler saw it differently.

DETROIT -- Kerry Carpenter has hit enough big home runs on baseball’s biggest stages that there’s a classic, recognizable Kerry Carpenter swing. Saturday’s home run wasn’t one of them. Cardinals starter Dustin May had followed a changeup off the plate with a changeup right on the outside corner, a pitch

DETROIT -- The Tigers couldn’t have scripted a much better return for Justin Verlander to Comerica Park: A national stage for a Sunday night broadcast with the downtown Detroit skyline lit up in the background. But with a 43-year-old pitcher, health is hard to plan. Verlander’s return to the mound
