The numbers prove that horrendous bullpen cost Tigers a comfortable playoff berth (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Scott Harris is going to have some explaining to do this offseason if he doesn’t spend all the extra money he saved by dealing Tarik Skubal on upgrading the Tigers’ infuriating bullpen. Not only was Detroit tied for fourth in all of baseball with 44 blown leads this season, but it was also seventh in the MLB with six blown leads in the 9th inning. It’d be easy to blame Kenley Jansen for a lot of those late losses, but the bullpen as a whole was a disaster this season, and the numbers prove it. T
Jahmai Jones resurgence, postseason with Red Sox is s double-edged sword for Tigers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Get traded away from the Tigers, put up career numbers. It’s a tale as old as time and it’s happening in real time throughout MLB as the playoffs begin. There are several former Tigers whose new teams have made the playoffs but the headliners have to be Casey Mize and Tarik Skubal. Both joined teams destined for the playoffs at the trade deadline (though Mize was left off the Padres' Wild Card roster). Then there were guys like Jahmai Jones and Jake Rogers who joined hopeful playoff teams — and
Could Framber Valdez’s strong finish indicate he’ll salvage his Tigers contract? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Scott Harris and the Tigers decided to spend some money this offseason on pretty much everything but a Tarik Skubal extension. They got Gleyber Torres back after he accepted their qualifying offer, re-signed Kyle Finnegan (woof), signed Kenley Jansen, and signed Justin Verlander and Framber Valdez to expensive deals. Verlander’s one-year, $13 million contract seemed well worth it at the time no matter what kind of product the Tigers would get out of him because everyone wanted to see him retire
Jacob Waguespack is making a strong case to survive Tigers’ bullpen teardown (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you polled 100 random Tigers fans who have followed the team closely this season on what the biggest disappointment of the 2026 team has been, well over half would say the bullpen. Kenley Jansen has been a letdown, but what else could we have expected from a 38-year-old closer nearing retirement? Kyle Finnegan had an uber disappointing year, Will Vest was awful before an injury, Brenan Hanifee was also bad before being sent to the IL, and both Beau Brieske and Andrew Sears have left a lot to
Tigers retain world-class broadcast team with new contracts for Benetti, Dickerson (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For years after the Rod Allen and Mario Impemba era, the Detroit Tigers’ television broadcast team left a lot to be desired. They went through several candidates and no one seemed to stick, but the organization decided to spend a little money on their next play-by-play guy. Jason Benetti was the splash hire ahead of the 2024 season, and he endeared himself to fans right away. The quirky “geek” — as his own broadcast team calls him — had made his rounds in broadcasting, going from calling college
