Ridiculous Tigers splits for your amusement.
What do hitting home runs, day games, and playoff contenders all have in common?

Trade deadline is chasing the Tigers -- but can Scott Harris make a single blockbuster deal?
Readers doubt the Tigers boss, approaching four years on the job, is a man who can pull the trigger on a deal for Tarik Skubal or any of the other Tigers who will be deadline targets.
Tigers Intelligence Report w/Lynn Henning

Keider Montero ranks 8th among AL starters in ERA, 3rd in WHIP and 5th in AVG. allowed. He also came out of the bullpen to strand the winning run in extra innings Wednesday to complete a Tigers sweep at Yankee Stadium. "He has an incredible mindset."
Jason Beck

Chalk it up to whatever you want, but the Tigers have had such bad luck so far in 2026. Through this point of any season in MLB history, no team has EVER posted a run differential of 11+ while also having a win% lower than ours (.437).

While we lament that Framber Valdez hasn't been very good..maybe we're missing some things. June 2-1 28 IP 3.21 ERA 63.5% GB%

Surely the almost 4 WAR catcher is starting the all star game right guys?

Troy Melton made his season debut on 5/24. His AL ranks since that date:
ERA: 2nd (2.05)
WHIP: 3rd (0.80)
AVG: 2nd (.161)
Melton has been one of the league’s best pitchers since returning.

In collective bargaining with the owners today, the MLBPA proposed to expand active rosters for the first 15 days of the season to 28, up from 26.The union also proposed to drop the number of times players can be optioned in a given season to three, down from current five.The union's press release:

Tigers starters have delivered four straight outings of 5.0+ innings, while allowing no more than two hits each:
Flaherty: 5.0 IP, 2 H
Mize: 7.0 IP, 1 H
kubal: 6.0 IP, 1 H
Melton: 6.1 IP, 2 H
This has happened only one other time in MLB history, dating back to 1900.

2 innings, 5 k’s. This may be a rough game.

You asked if weren’t seeing something with Framber. What I have seen is a lot of pitching into jams, and managing to pitch out of them, often somewhat inefficiently. Tonight he has pitched himself into trouble.

Tigers may get no hit.
This is pathetic hitting approach at its finest..

Can anyone make adjustments

Way too many swings and misses

Eovaldi shut us down like this before.

Again, our highest war starter is moved to the pen and this turd is making record money to be a shitty starter. Thanks Harris and AJ. You both suck

How many hits is he going allowed when ahead in the count? Just curious dipshit.
What a waste of money so far.

I think I’ve seen all I want to see of this one

My bad.. I threw my phone in the car. Then adjustments happened.

Another stellar ab by Vierling
My god.

Man this pen just stinks .

So if Matt Vierling does his job and move the runner over Greene probably scores on the muff by the ss.
Man his at bats are really bad.

I'm pretty sure that not enough time had passed to bring up DeJesus.

Well, kiss this one goodbye. Sommers doesn't have any ability to locate.

He never should've been sent down is the point

Kenley Jansen in in his new role as janitor.

I imagine it had to do with him being the only one with options. I don't disagree with you, though.
