That's a wrap, folks! It goes without saying that the 2026 Detroit Tigers Season did not end the way any of us wanted (or expected to.) Following back-to-back postseason appearances, there was reason to believe this was the year Detroit could actually make a deep run in October. Instead, the Tigers finished 76-86, four...

Well, Tigers fans, here we are. No longer need to check the standings. No more working on your quick math skills. Baseball will wrap up at the conclusion of this weekend for our boys in the old English D. Yes, the pressure is gone and now we just look towards the finish line. There is still some baseball left to be pla...

There's an old saying that I am sure we have all heard at least once in our lifetime. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Baseball is a marathon and for the last 150 games, our Tigers have certainly treated it as such. But with the finish line suddenly in our sights, NOBODY in Detroit has time for a marathon anymore. This i...

Alright. I guess I have to be the one to say it. Are we really doing this again? Because I swear we have seen this movie before. Scratch that. We've seen this movie several times. And this isn't a movie you put on when you want to unwind. It's not even a movie you turn for background noise when you have chores to do. ...

I am a professional wrestling fan. Have been for almost my whole life. Over the weekend I watched a segment with a manager talking about his tag team and he said this line.... "When my guys are good, they are very good. But when my guys are bad, they're VERRRRRY Bad." Immediately, I thought of the Tigers. ...

Have any of you ever gone into a project or a situation saying or thinking, "I know this needs to get done, but man I do not want to have to do this."? That's How I felt all day prior to writing this week's column. As you may know, I work for an oldies radio station out of West Michigan, so I hear this classi...

The Tigers have six weeks left-and no time for another stumble. This past week, there was a little bit of everything. Good, bad, and ugly. We started looking like contenders, to looking vulnerable, and then immediately reminding everyone why they're still in the race. But I do not think there is a reason to be all gl...

I think we are going to be alright. I know the question came up in a lot of Tigers fans' heads when Skubal was traded. When it looked like this year was going to focus on building for future years to come. But? What a difference a week makes. Tigers went 4-2 since the last time we talked. Losing only once to the Mari...

This article will be a little different this week, as it will be split into 2 parts, because there is no way on God's green earth I can write about the Skubal trade. If the Tigers Were Going to Trade Tarik Skubal, Why Not Wait? The moment the announcement was made, one question echoed around baseball: Why now? Yes, las...

I thought about this article a lot this week. After a series win against the Angels, then a 2-1 series win against the Cubs (Cardinals fan here, so thanks for that by the way), then splitting a series at home against division rivals the Royals in which all four games were decided by one run, I thought to myself, what ...
