Top Tigers News

  • Tigers' Tyler Holton: Notches first save

    Holton picked up the save in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Pirates by striking out the only batter he faced.

    Holton entered the game with two outs in the bottom of the ninth as the Pirates tried to mount a late comeback, down three with the bases loaded. After getting down to a full count, the lefty then managed to strike out Ke'Bryan Hayes looking on a changeup to slam the door on Pittsburgh and record his first save of the season. It was a nice bounceback effort for Holton after blowing a save in his last appearance, and he's now recorded at least one strikeout in four straight outings.

  • Tigers' Jake Rogers: Blasts 13th home run

    Rogers recorded a pinch-hit home run in Wednesday's win over the Pirates.

    Rogers took a seat to begin the game, with Eric Haase getting the start behind the plate, but the former made an impact in his lone at-bat during the eighth inning. Rogers now has 13 home runs and a .748 OPS this season, compared to just three long balls and a .506 OPS for Haase. The superior offensive performance should keep Rogers in the lineup most days moving forward.

  • Tigers' Zack Short: Drives in three off bench

    Short went 2-for-3 with a double and three RBI in Wednesday's win over the Pirates. He also stole a base.

    Short didn't enter the contest until the fourth inning, when he pinch hit for Akil Baddoo. He wasted no time making an impact, driving in two on a single in his first at-bat. Short still profiles as more of a utility player at this point who can't be counted on for a consistent fantasy impact, which is reflected in his .673 OPS across 72 games.

  • Tigers' Riley Greene: Goes deep in win

    Greene went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Wednesday's win over the Pirates.

    Greene extended his hitting streak to five games, with home runs in two of those contests. The young outfielder had an outstanding July, posting a .343/.405/.537 slash line across 18 games, and he'll look to keep rolling in August and through the end of the season.

  • Tigers' Eduardo Rodriguez: Earns win Wednesday

    Rodriguez (7-5) allowed two runs on seven hits across six innings to earn the win Wednesday against the Pirates. He had one walk and five strikeouts.

    A day after vetoing a potential trade to the Dodgers, Rodriguez looked sharp for the Tigers. The lefty now has a strong 2.96 ERA this season, and with the ability to opt out of his five-year, $77 million contract in the offseason, he could be angling for free agency and another big payday. For now, Rodriguez remains in Detroit, and he'll look to build some momentum in his next scheduled start, which is tentatively set for Tuesday against the Twins.

  • Tigers' Andy Ibanez: On bench Wednesday

    Ibanez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Pittsburgh.

    Ibanez's hold on a near-everyday role appears to be slipping, as he'll now hit the bench for the fifth time in eight games. Nick Maton will get the nod at the keystone Wednesday, and the Tigers may continue to take a committee approach to second base until one player separates himself from the other as the best option. Ibanez has produced an underwhelming .660 OPS since the beginning of July.

  • Tigers' Miguel Cabrera: Resting for day game

    Cabrera is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

    Cabrera had started in each of the Tigers' last five games, going 5-for-17 with two doubles, a walk, two RBI and a run scored during that stretch. Though Cabrera's been a part-time player for most of the season, manager A.J. Hinch has rewarded the 40-year-old with more playing time of late while he's been one of the team's better performing hitters over the past week.

  • Tigers' Jake Rogers: Rests Wednesday

    Rogers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

    He'll take a seat for the day game after a night game, allowing Eric Haase to get the starting nod behind the plate. Rogers went 1-for-8 with a double and a run scored while starting in both of Detroit's last two contests.

  • Tigers' Eduardo Rodriguez: Stays in Detroit, starts Wednesday

    Rodriguez is listed as the Tigers' probable starting pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Pirates at PNC Park.

    Rodriguez will be returning to the mound on seven days' rest, after the Tigers elected to push him back in the rotation in anticipation of him being moved ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline. According to ESPN.com, general manager Scott Harris said that Rodriguez invoked his no-trade clause to remain in Detroit, after several reports indicated that the Tigers had struck a deal with the Dodgers on Tuesday that would have sent the southpaw to Los Angeles. Rodriguez, who is in the midst of the best season of his career with a 2.95 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 91:21 K:BB across 88.1 innings, has the ability to opt out of his five-year, $77 million contract this offseason. If Rodriguez closes the 2023 campaign on a high note, there's a strong possibility that he elects to become a free agent in search of another big payday this winter.

  • Tigers' Matt Manning: Takes loss Tuesday

    Manning (3-3) allowed four runs on eight hits across six innings to take the loss Tuesday against the Pirates. He had no walks and struck out six.

    A two-run home run by Liover Peguero in the second inning accounted for half of the damage, which has been the story lately for Manning, who's allowed four home runs over his last two starts. He's given up 11 runs across 11 innings in those two starts, pushing his season ERA up to 4.53. Manning will look to limit the long ball and get back on track in his next start, which is tentatively set for Monday against the Twins.

  • Tigers' Will Vest: Begins rehab assignment

    Vest (leg) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday.

    A strained right leg has kept Vest on the shelf since late June, and he appears to be approaching a return to Detroit's bullpen. The 28-year-old righty holds a 2.73 ERA and 1.08 WHIP through 29.2 innings and figures to return within a week.

  • Tigers' Eddys Leonard: Sent to Detroit

    The Tigers acquired Leonard from the Dodgers on Tuesday in exchange for cash.

    Leonard was designated for assignment by Los Angeles last week and will now make his way to Detroit's 40-man roster. The 22-year-old has a .257/.330/.423 slash line with 12 home runs in 92 games at the Double-A level this season. He's expected to report to Triple-A Toledo with his new organization.

  • Tigers' Trey Wingenter: Returns to Detroit

    The Tigers recalled Wingenter from Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday.

    Wingenter will make the trip from Toledo to Detroit for the second time in the past five days, as he was promoted for the Tigers' doubleheader Thursday and sent back down to Triple-A on Saturday. Wingenter holds a 7.11 ERA through 6.1 innings with Detroit, though he allowed one run over two frames in his most-recent showing.

  • Tigers' Hao-Yu Lee: Headed to Detroit for Lorenzen

    Lee was traded from the Phillies to the Tigers on Tuesday in exchange for Michael Lorenzen, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    Lee, a 20-year-old second baseman from Taiwan, is mostly known for his advanced hit tool. He had a .283/.372/.401 slash line with a 10.2 percent walk rate and an 18.6 percent strikeout rate in 285 plate appearances for High-A Jersey Shore. Lee's power and speed lag behind his hit tool, as he has a .117 ISO and five home runs in 64 games this year, and, despite back-to-back seasons with double-digit steals, most public scouting reports have him pegged as a 50-grade runner.
