KANSAS CITY -- Gage Workman waited seemingly forever for the Tigers to call his name among their lengthy list of injury replacements. Finally given his shot, he didn’t need long to live up to his middle name: Tater. “When I was in Toledo, a lot of guys called me Tater,”

KANSAS CITY -- Uncle. The Tigers’ burgeoning injured list added another new member Sunday, and a key cog at that. Slugging outfielder Kerry Carpenter was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left shoulder sprain suffered crashing into the right-field sidewall at Kauffman Stadium on Bobby Witt Jr.’s inside-the-park

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.

No matter what its record is, every MLB team knows there's always room for improvement. With the help of MLB.com's beat writers, here's one thing each club is seeking to improve this season. All stats updated through Saturday's games

KANSAS CITY -- The Royals had a Nickelodeon Night promotion on Saturday at Kauffman Stadium, featuring not only a slime-style Royals jersey giveaway but people in the ballpark actually getting slimed, albeit by choice. As Bobby Witt Jr. raced around the bases on a ball down the right-field line that

KANSAS CITY -- Justin Verlander has almost a season’s worth of starts (24) at Kauffman Stadium over his career, second only to Cleveland’s Progressive Field amongst road parks for him. So maybe it was fitting that Verlander’s first simulated game on his road back to the Tigers’ rotation was here

This page will be updated throughout the year with all the latest Tigers injury news and transactions.

KANSAS CITY -- The news is good on Tarik Skubal, who underwent surgery on Wednesday to remove a loose body from his elbow. The timetable for the Cy Young winner’s return is still somewhat murky, but encouraging. Skubal is headed to the Tigers’ Spring Training facility in Lakeland, Fla., where

KANSAS CITY -- The Tigers had enough good news from their injured starting pitchers Friday fair to look forward to getting their makeshift rotation closer to normal in the coming weeks. But the more Keider Montero pitches, the more he makes his case to remain a part of it. He

DETROIT -- The biggest question surrounding Tarik Skubal right now is no longer where he might go in free agency next offseason, or whether the Tigers would trade him at the Deadline if they’re out of the AL Central race. It’s now: How much time will he miss while recovering

DETROIT -- Jack Flaherty was just about to begin his pre-start routine Wednesday when the Tigers announced that fellow starter Framber Valdez had accepted a five-game suspension for hitting Trevor Story on Tuesday. It didn’t have any impact on Flaherty’s outing, but it whittled the injury-ravaged Tigers rotation to two

The 2026 Draft is taking longer to sort itself out than teams hoped. Shortstops Roch Cholowsky (UCLA) and Grady Emerson (Fort Worth Christian HS in Texas) have set themselves apart from the rest of the class. The second tier of prospects consists of catcher Vahn Lackey (Georgia Tech) and right-hander

Bryce Rainer, the Tigers’ No. 2 prospect and MLB Pipeline’s No. 28 overall, is heating up. Rainer on Wednesday clobbered his first home run since being promoted to High-A West Michigan, highlighting a 2-for-3 day for the shortstop in a 4-3 loss to Dayton at LMCU Ballpark. The 11th overall

DETROIT -- Amid injuries to Tarik Skubal, Casey Mize and Justin Verlander, another starting pitcher absence is the last thing the Tigers needed. But as soon as Framber Valdez was ejected from Tuesday’s game for hitting Trevor Story, it was inevitable. Valdez began serving a five-game suspension Wednesday night. Major

DETROIT -- Add another injury to the Tigers’ growing injured list, now up to 14 players. Second baseman Gleyber Torres was placed on the 10-day IL on Wednesday with a mild left oblique strain he sustained on Saturday. Torres had been considered day to day and he was seemingly progressing

The saying goes that relievers are failed starters. If you believe that, revisit how much the Padres gave up for Mason Miller at last year’s Trade Deadline, and then look at Miller’s dominance to begin his first full season in San Diego. After that, look at the three-year, $69 million

DETROIT -- The Tigers need innings and zeros from Framber Valdez, thrust into the ace role with Tarik Skubal set to undergo elbow surgery and with his team coming off back-to-back bullpen games. On Tuesday, they got neither. And if Valdez receives a suspension for hitting Trevor Story and sparking

DETROIT -- Two-time defending American League Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal will undergo arthroscopic surgery to remove loose bodies from his elbow after a flare-up on Sunday night. Neither Skubal nor the Tigers would put a timetable on his return. A typical timetable for recovery from such a surgery is

The news that Tarik Skubal will undergo surgery to remove loose bodies from his left elbow sent shockwaves throughout the game on Monday, as the two-time American League Cy Young Award winner will be sidelined for the next two or three months. What does that mean for the Tigers in

DETROIT -- The last time Ty Madden pitched in a Major League game, he tossed two-thirds of an inning in mop-up duty in Game 1 of the 2024 American League Division Series in Cleveland. Madden was the third pitcher in a bullpen game started by Tyler Holton, so he knew
