JEIMER CANDELARIO

The Twins, who had their six-game winning streak stopped, loaded the bases with no outs in the bottom half. Castro hit solo home runs in the sixth and eighth innings, after going deep only nine times in his first 799 major league at-bats. His first homer off Twins starter Dylan Bundy stopped a 16-inning scoreless streak for the Tigers, who have only 25 homers in 43 games for the fewest in baseball. Wily Peralta, Joe Jiménez, Gregory Soto and Alex Lange (1-1) kept the Twins off the board after García departed. When Bundy’s curveball bounced in the dirt and skipped to the right of the catcher Sánchez, Hill aggressively raced home.

Sonny Gray compiled a season-high 10 strikeouts over seven sharp innings, carrying the Minnesota Twins past the Detroit Tigers 2-0 for their sixth straight victory.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Detroit Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera will give way to fellow slugger Harold Castro in the series finale against the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday afternoon at Tropicana Field. Cabrera has started 32 of the Tigers’ 37 games this season and often gets a day off on afternoon games following night games. Tigers lefty Eduardo Rodriguez (1-2, 3.72 ERA) will face Rays right-hander Drew Rasmussen (3-1, 2.67). Former Tiger Isaac Paredes will get his first start against his old team on Wednesday. He entered as a pinch-hitter and defensive replacement in the first two games of the series.

The final game of the mid-week three-game series between the Detroit Tigers and the Tampa Rays is set for Wednesday afternoon in the Sunshine State. Jeimer Candelario was the lone Tiger to put a run on the board, hitting his third home run of the season in the third inning.

DETROIT -- The Detroit Tigers put up a better fight on Thursday afternoon, which may make the loss sting even more. The Tigers fought back from a three-run deficit before losing to the Oakland Athletics 5-3 at Comerica Park.

MINNEAPOLIS -- Jeimer Candelario is getting his first off day of the season on Thursday after starting the first 17 games. Candelario, perhaps the Tigers’ best offensive player in 2021, is hitting just .143 (9-for-63) with a .408 OPS (25 OPS+) early in the season. “I’m just trying something a little different and giving him a day off to watch the game and decompress a little bit,” Hinch said. Jonathan Schoop, who is starting his 18th consecutive game on Thursday, is hitting just .154 (10-for-65) with a .434 OPS (31 OPS+). “These guys are pressing pretty hard, trying to try to solve a couple of weeks of problems in one game,” Hinch said.

The Detroit Tigers’ bullpen has been a pleasant surprise through the first 10 games of the season, but that performance has largely been spoiled by ice cold veteran hitters.

DETROIT -- The Boston Red Sox scored six times in a rain-soaked fourth inning, knocking starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez from the game on their way to a 9-7 victory Wednesday afternoon at Comerica Park. The Red Sox (3-3) took two of three from the Tigers (2-4), who finished with a losing record in their first homestand of the season. The Red Sox followed with three consecutive RBI doubles to left field, scoring four of their five unearned runs and bouncing Rodriguez from the game far earlier than expected. Jonathan Schoop hit a solo homer off Red Sox starter Nathan Eovaldi in the first inning. The Red Sox turned to reliever Hansel Robles to face Jonathan Schoop, who popped up to end the eighth.

However, it would not be enough, as the White Sox bullpen was able to hold the Tigers at bay the rest of the way, handing Detroit their first loss of the season.

Dylan Cease remained unbeaten in 10 career starts against Detroit and Yasmani Grandal hit a two-run homer that led the Chicago White Sox over the Tigers 5-2.

The Detroit Tigers announced their final roster moves of the offseason Wednesday, revealing the 28 players who will make up the Opening Day roster.

DETROIT -- The signings of Javier Baez and Eduardo Rodriguez understandably got much of the attention this winter, but most of the Detroit Tigers’ Opening Day roster was built more methodically over the last several years. The TIgers finalized their 28-man roster on Wednesday and will open the 2022 season on Friday afternoon at Comerica Park against the Chicago White Sox. This roster is just one snapshot in time and it will look far different in a few weeks. THE OPENING DAY ROSTER (28)Left-handed pitchers (4): Tyler Alexander, Eduardo Rodriguez, Tarik Skubal, Gregory Soto. Haase came to the Tigers organization from the Indians in 2018, while Garneau was traded back to the Tigers last summer.

Would we be fools to believe the Detroit Tigers could make the playoffs this year?

There have been encouraging signs in the shortened spring training, including a crisp 5-4-3 double play started by Candelario on Monday’s game in Lakeland. “Candy’s picked up his pace at third, which has been an emphasis this spring,” Hinch said. “Jonathan’s a little bit of a difference-maker turning the double play. Although shortstop and later second baseman Willi Castro took much of the blame, the rotating cast of infielders playing the middle positions didn’t help. “We’ve bluntly told our players exactly where we stood and where we want to be,” Hinch said.

Who are some of the "fun" Detroit Tigers players who have helped us get through the last five years of rebuilding?

The Tigers have a really crowded infield, especially if -- as expected -- Spencer Torkelson makes the club as everyday first baseman. With Jonathan Schoop at second, newcomer Javier Baez at shortstop and Jeimer Candelario at third, there simply won’t be a lot of at-bats to go around. Paredes debuted at third base in the COVID-shortened 2020 season when Jeimer Candelario moved over to first base to replace the injured C.J. Last spring, he worked extensively at second base and even tried his hand at shortstop. This spring he was placed in the same hitting group with Miguel Cabrera, Jeimer Candelario and Javier Baez.

LAKELAND, Fla. -- When a spring storm started drenching the field at Joker Marchant Stadium on Thursday, Detroit Tigers manager A.J. The idea of a spring slump is usually not taken seriously, but the Tigers third baseman really needed something good to happen.

Cabrera is no longer the feared hitter he once was and the Tigers have restocked the lineup around him. Cabrera was batting fifth, behind Javier Baez and Jeimer Candelario in the middle of the order. But that’s easier said than done, because Barnhart will probably bat eighth or ninth, and Baddoo (and perhaps eventually Riley Greene) will be at the top of the order. Riley Greene, CF (L)8. Riley Greene, CF (L)7.

LAKELAND, Fla. -- The Detroit Tigers reached deals with seven arbitration-eligible players but appear ready to “go to trial” with injured starting pitcher Spencer Turnbull. Players eligible for arbitration have spent between three and six years on an MLB active roster. In most cases, players and clubs reach a deal on their own without having to resort to arbitration. The Tigers and Turnbull are allowed to continue negotiating up until the arbitration hearing, but the Tigers and many MLB clubs are known for a “file and trial” policy. His 2023 salary will be similar or identical to his 2022 salary, meaning a victory in arbitration could ultimately be worth $1.55 million.

The Detroit Tigers declined to offer a 2022 contract to Matthew Boyd, making the veteran left-handed pitcher a free agent for the first time in his career. Players like Boyd are said to be “non-tendered” and are free to sign with any team. By tendering a contract, the Tigers are committed to negotiating a contract with the player and going through the arbitration process if necessary. Infielders (8): Miguel Cabrera, Jeimer Candelario, Harold Castro, Willi Castro, Kody Clemens, Isaac Paredes, Jonathan Schoop, Zack Short. Nov. 30: Announced that left-handed pitcher Matthew Boyd would not be tendered a contract for 2022.

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario has been named Tiger of the Year by the Detroit chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America. It’s the second consecutive year that Candelario has won the award. Candelario, who turns 28 this month, hit .271 with a .795 OPS (122 OPS+) in 149 games. Candelario was tied for the MLB lead in doubles, becoming the first Tiger to lead the league in doubles since Cabrera did so in 2011.

Up next: The Tigers and White Sox meet again on Friday at 8:10 p.m. Tigers right-hander Spencer Turnbull (4-2, 2.93 ERA) will face White Sox lefty Dallas Keuchel (4-1, 4.53).

Online voting began on Thursday afternoon, and the Tigers have a couple of intriguing candidates worthy of consideration. But outfielder Robbie Grossman and third baseman Jeimer Candelario almost certainly lack the star power to win the fan vote. That’s what happened when Joe Jimenez and Shane Greene were chosen as the Tigers’ lone representatives in 2018 and 2019, respectively. So that pathway could open a door for someone like Michael Fulmer or, if he can harness his control, Gregory Soto. TIGER ALL-STARS2020: None2019: RHP Shane Greene2018: RHP Joe Jimenez2017: RHP Michael Fulmer (selected but not on active roster because of pitching assignment); OF Justin Upton (added to roster)2016: Miguel Cabrera (reserve)2015: INF Jose Iglesias, OF J.D.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Casey Mize made his debut in 2020, but he’s still technically a rookie in 2021. Mize posted a 1.74 ERA in 31 innings, the best May performance since Rick Porcello (1.50 ERA in 30 innings) in 2009 and Justin Verlander (1.73 ERA in 36 innings) in 2006. Mize was named Tigers Pitcher of the Month by Detroit media, beating out fellow starter Spencer Turnbull. https://t.co/g5NirQ1gO3 — Evan Woodbery (@evanwoodbery) June 1, 2021The Tigers (22-32) finished May with a 14-13 record, which was their first full month with a winning record since May 2018. “I know historically and with where we’ve been the last few years, (the winning record in May) is relevant,” said Tigers manager A.J.

The victory puts the Tigers (21-31) on the verge of a very unexpected sweep of the Yankees (29-23) going into Sunday’s series finale. The Tigers have already clinched their first series victory over New York at Comerica Park since 2014.

Lost in the celebration of Spencer Turnbull’s no-hitter on Tuesday night is a bit of encouraging news: The Detroit Tigers are playing a lot better lately. The Tigers beat the Seattle Mariners 5-0 Tuesday at T-Mobile Park to improve to 16-26 on the season. But the Tigers have won seven of their last nine games after a stretch in which they went 3-18. He’s hitting .354 with three home runs in May. Although Haase played in parts of four MLB seasons, he hasn’t played much, which means he’s still technically a rookie.

The Detroit Tigers won their opening series against the Cleveland Indians over the weekend, and while it’s too early to overreact, there were some encouraging signs for the future.

A new manager. Three free agent signees in the everyday lineup. Two new faces in the starting rotation. Prospects graduating into important roles. Who are these Detroit Tigers?

The Detroit Tigers have released their starting lineup for Opening Day against the Cleveland Indians at Comerica Park.

DETROIT – Even though a playoff race isn’t in the cards for the Detroit Tigers this season, there are plenty of reasons to be excited about this team ahead of Opening Day. READ: Meet all 26 members of the Tigers’ rosterWe came up with 22 questions we can’t wait to learn the answers to over the coming months. Nobody knew who he was when the Tigers selected him in the Rule 5 draft, mostly because he missed the entire 2020 season and hasn’t played above High-A ball. An underrated part of the shortened 2020 season was Soto’s hot start. Daniel Norris #44 of the Detroit Tigers delivers a pitch against the Minnesota Twins during the game at Target Field on September 22, 2020 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

DETROIT – The Detroit Tigers sent prospect Isaac Paredes to minor league camp this week, scrambling the starting infield with Opening Day less than a week away. Robbie Grossman, LFSpring stats: .243/.364/.486 (.850 OPS), 2 HR, 3 doubles, 6 walks, 11 strikeouts in 37 at-bats. AdSince the day the Tigers signed Grossman, he’s felt like the best fit atop the lineup. Well, this spring he’s strengthened that case with a .364 on-base percentage. 8 slot behind Wilson Ramos, but so far this spring, Hinch has had him above the catcher in the lineup.

C Wilson RamosConfidence: LockRole: Starting catcherThere’s a legitimate three-way battle to back up Ramos, but everyone knows who the starter will be. AdSS Willi CastroConfidence: LockRole: Starting shortstopThere are going to be some defensive miscues, especially on the throw. As a result, the Tigers will have an extra roster spot to play with -- that’s why there will be 27 names on this list. He bet on himself and won, allowing just three runs while striking out 15 batters in 11 spring innings. If we’re being honest, a conversation about Baddoo as a starter feels more justified than a conversation about earning a roster spot.

DETROIT – On Monday, it will be possible to watch a Detroit Tigers game for the first time this season without actually being inside the stadium. When the Tigers take on the New York Yankees at 1:10 p.m. Monday inside Steinbrenner Field in Tampa, Florida, the game will be streamed live on MLB.TV.

Just like in the first spring training game, Monday’s contest is expected to last seven innings.

AdJazz Chisholm of the Marlins and Adam Haseley of the Phillies did even better — they led off games with home runs. Mancini took off his helmet to acknowledge a standing ovation that included the fans, the Orioles and the Pirates. Marco Gonzales made his first spring start for Seattle, allowing two hits and an unearned run in two innings. Center fielder Trent Grisham, coming off his first Gold Glove last season, doubled and scored a run for San Diego. Top prospect Jeter Downs had a two-run home run and RBI single, while Michael Chavis hit a solo shot.

DETROIT – The Detroit Tigers made a trio of free agent signings over the last month to fill holes in the everyday lineup, but there are still many questions about the starting nine. Cron at first base, Schoop at second base, Jeimer Candelario at third base and Niko Goodrum at shortstop. AdOf his 50 games started last season, Reyes hit leadoff in 34 of them. Isaac Paredes #19 of the Detroit Tigers bats during the Detroit Tigers Summer Workouts at Comerica Park on July 18, 2020 in Detroit, Michigan. Whether that means he’ll get chances at first base, third base or elsewhere remains to be seen.

DETROIT – The Detroit Tigers tendered contracts to all nine of their arbitration-eligible players Wednesday, meaning they will all return for the 2021 season. READ: Detroit Tigers hire University of Michigan’s Chris Fetter as new pitching coachBy tendering contracts to these players, the Tigers will now negotiate salaries for the 2021 season. Last season, the Tigers won an arbitration hearing with Fulmer, who filed for $3.4 million but ultimately earned $2.8 million for the season.

DETROIT – Going into 2021, the Detroit Tigers have exciting prospects, money to spend and a handful of solid players on their roster. Here are three free agents they could add to three prospects and three familiar faces to create a starting lineup capable of competing next season. (2020 Getty Images)If the Tigers could only pursue one free agent this offseason, it should be J.T. If the Tigers field this type of lineup, he shouldn’t be guaranteed his old spot in the No. Suggested lineupIf the Tigers made these three signings and called up Greene, here’s what the theoretical lineup could look like on Opening Day:D.J.

DETROIT – As ugly as the final 25 games were for the Detroit Tigers, the shortened 2020 season went about as well as anyone could have hoped. Candelario finished the season in a 1-23 slump with six walks and 10 strikeouts, then landed on the 10-day injured list. But overall, his .297/.369/.503 season is much closer to what the Tigers hoped he would become.
