JaCoby Jones Stays Hot, Launches Sixth Homer

Detroit Tigers outfielder JaCoby Jones continued his recent tear at the dish on Sunday, belting his sixth home run of the season as the Tigers fell to the Braves.

Christin Stewart Homers In Big Game Sunday

Detroit Tigers outfielder Christin Stewart launched his fourth home run of the year as part of a three-hit effort against the Braves on Sunday.

Shane Greene Locks Down 17th Save

Detroit Tigers reliever Shane Greene notched his American-League-best 17th save on Tuesday as the Tigers beat the Orioles. The fact that Greene is among the top relievers and save-getters in baseball is remarkable, given how terrible the Tigers are: they've won just 20 games, but Greene has sealed the deal in 17 of them. The […]

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd took the hill on Tuesday against the struggling Orioles and did exactly what he was supposed to do, holding the Orioles scoreless over six innings of work with eight strikeouts and just one walk.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd has been a pleasant surprise to start the 2019 campaign, and he turned in another strong performance on Wednesday against the Angels.

The strong start to Detroit Tigers closer Shane Greene's season has earned the veteran closer Reliever of the Month honors for the month of April.

Casey Mize Throws No-Hitter in Double-A Debut

Detroit Tigers starting pitching prospect Casey Mize made his debut with Double-A Erie on Monday. To say he made a good first impression would be an understatement.
