CHICAGO -- Just when the Tigers seemed to have a surplus of quality starting pitching, the injury bug that has plagued Detroit for much of the season bit again. But it wasn’t Casey Mize, whose abrupt exit Sunday against the Angels raised concerns of another groin injury. Instead, the Tigers

They don’t call just anyone “Spark” after all. Max Clark provided the ultimate jolt atop the lineup during Triple-A Toledo's 5-1 win over Louisville on Tuesday at Fifth Third Field, socking a leadoff homer off left-hander Brandon Leibrandt (Reds), who has eight Major League appearances under his belt. MLB’s No.

There's no place like home. For seven playoff hopefuls, that saying is especially true. These contending clubs have lopsided home/road splits, faring significantly better in their home ballpark than on the road. As we work through a critical stretch between the All-Star break and the Aug. 3 Trade Deadline, these

The second half of the MLB season usually comes with a mission. For contenders, it's getting to the postseason. For others, it's taking stock and looking ahead to improve for next season. In either circumstance, there are players who teams want to see contribute because they figure to be an

ANAHEIM -- Tarik Skubal spent his All-Star break in Detroit, bypassing a typical midsummer vacation to get his regular between-starts work at Comerica Park. On Saturday at Angel Stadium, that preparation paid off immediately. Backed by a four-run burst in the first inning, Skubal silenced the Angels' bats, scattering five

ANAHEIM -- The Tigers’ bats slept in until the very last minute. Down to their last out, Hao-Yu Lee sent a double into right-center field to score the two runners on base to help Detroit avoid getting shut out while simultaneously taking a one-run lead.

Sitting in front of his locker at Yankee Stadium, Tarik Skubal wants to run a search on Baseball Savant. One of the best pitchers in baseball, at least in this way, is just like us. On the mound, Skubal does a lot of things that nobody else does. He has

DETROIT -- Tarik Skubal paused for a second when asked how he’ll be spending the break. “The All-Star break?” It wasn’t out of privacy. In Skubal’s world, there is no break. It’s just his regular time between starts.
