Tigers take series from Twins, then take an outfielder from them, too.
Tigers pickup James Outman can play all three outfield positions, and has played mostly center field in 2026.
The Tigers took the series from the Minnesota Twins. Then they took an outfielder from the Twins.
The Tigers announced Thursday afternoon that they have claimed veteran outfielder James Outman off waivers from the Twins. Outman, who hit 23 home runs in 2023 for the Los Angeles Dodgers, was designated for assignment by the Twins earlier this month.
To make room on the 40-man roster for Outman, the Tigers transferred Javy Báez (ankle) to the 60-day injured list. Outman is out of minor-league options, signaling he might join the Tigers active roster before Friday's series opener in Cleveland. The Tigers would have to clear a roster space to make room.

Tigers claim Twins OF James Outman, trade for reliever dominating in Triple-A.
The Detroit Tigers claimed outfielder James Outman off waivers from the Minnesota Twins following their 11-0 win over Minnesota on Thursday, June 11, at Comerica Park.
Outman, 29, debuted for the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2022 and put up a sterling rookie season in 2023, slashing .248/.353/.437 with 23 home runs and 16 stolen bases over 151 games. He has yet to put up positive value in three seasons after his breakout season, however, hitting a meager .144 in 334 at-bats since the start of 2024.

2011: Realignment is on the table again as Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association are in discussions to renew the collective bargaining agreement, which expires on December 11. One of the options being discussed would see one team moving from the National League to the American League to create two 15-team leagues, with the Houston Astros the likeliest candidate for a move.

2014: Max Scherzer outdueled Chris Sale in what was his first career complete game and shutout to propel the Tigers to a 4-0 win.

He had already missed all but one game of May with a hamstring injury. The next few years see Cabrera a shell of his former greatness with an arthritic knee and herniated discs in his back. Nevertheless Miggy will retire at the end of the 2023 season with a career average over .300 with over 600 Doubles 500 Home Runs and 3000 Hits.

Tigers' Colt Keith loved silent treatment. He hopes he never gets it again.
Colt Keith's home run in Thursday's game was his first since last September. It snapped a drought of 219 at-bats.
Yes, of course it was getting to him. He hadn't homered since September.
"I think it's just something that's always in the back of your head," Colt Keith said. "I don't know if it, you know, made me change my swing or my approach in any way, but it's definitely lingered in the back of your head, wanting to get that first one of the way."

Tigers prospect Ben Jacobs reminds Freep writer of a young Tarik Skubal.
It’s like some Tarik Skubal magic has rubbed off on Ben Jacobs, a Detroit Tigers prospect whose stock has soared.
During the offseason, Jacobs was throwing a bullpen at Arizona State, getting ready for the minor league season.
Skubal, the reigning two-time Cy Young Award winner, was also training at Arizona State at the same time, getting ready to pitch for the Tigers.

Why Detroit Tigers have tough decision ahead with RHP Keider Montero.
The home run rate? Down.
The walk rate? Down.
The strikeout rate? Well, that's also down, but that might not be a problem for Detroit Tigers pitcher Keider Montero.
And with the young right-hander throwing as well as he is, the Tigers have a tough decision ahead of them.
The Tigers beat the Minnesota Twins, 11-0, at Comerica Park on Thursday, June 11, with Montero pitching 6⅓ shutout innings in one of his best performances of the year. Montero's final line reflected the trends he has been showing at his best all season, with 10 fly outs to four strikeouts in a remarkably efficient performance from the starter.

Tigers lose game, Flaherty in loss to Guardians: 'We know where we're at'.
Given the size of the mountain the Tigers are tasked with climbing to get back into the playoff picture, any loss, but particularly a loss to a rival team in the division, can feel more calamitous than it is.
Manager AJ Hinch addressed that issue before the Tigers were beaten by the Cleveland Guardians, 3-2, in the first of a three-game weekend set at Progressive Field Friday night.

Detroit Tigers fall prey to greatest foe in Cleveland: Tanner Bibee.
The Detroit Tigers have beaten the Cleveland Guardians more than it seems like these past couple seasons, including in the ALDS last fall. They just can’t beat Tanner Bibee.
Lately, the Tigers can’t even hit the Cleveland righty and didn’t again in the series opener at Progressive Field, losing 3-2 and falling to 29-41. Well, the new guy – James Outman – hit Bibee when he smacked a solo home run to keep the Tigers in it early. He also made a spectacular play in center to give Tigers righty Jack Flaherty a chance to get out of a jam in the second inning.

June 13 in Tigers and mlb history:

1885: George Wood hits for the cycle for the Detroit Wolverines.

1905: Christy Mathewson of the New York Giants pitches his second career no-hitter, beating the Chicago Cubs and Mordecai Brown, 1 - 0. Mathewson and Three Finger Brown match no-hitters for eight innings. The Giants get two hits in the 9th for the win, and a pair of errors committed by Bill Dahlen at shortstop prevent Mathewson from hurling a perfect game.

1912: Christy Mathewson reaches his 300th career victory as the New York Giants beat the Chicago Cubs, 3 - 2. During his 17-year major league career, Mathewson will compile a 373-188 record.

1921: Babe Ruth of the New York Yankees hits a 460-foot home run into the center field bleachers in the Polo Grounds, for the first home run ever hit to that spot. Ruth adds his 21st home run of the season and also pitches five innings in the 13 - 6 win over the Detroit Tigers, giving up four runs, but striking out Ty Cobb. In tomorrow's game, Ruth will hit two more home runs, his sixth and seventh in five games, in a 9 - 6 win over Detroit.

1930: The Washington Senators and St. Louis Browns trade future Hall of Fame outfielders. The Senators send Goose Goslin to the Browns in exchange for Heinie Manush, who will bat .362 over the balance of the season. The transaction marks the first time in major league history that former batting champions have been traded for one another.

1932: The Detroit Tigers traded Dale Alexander and Roy Johnson to the Boston Red Sox for Earl Webb.

1947: View of the first night game at Fenway Park! Ted Williams goes 2-for-4 with 2 RBIs to help the Boston Red Sox defeat the Chicago White Sox by a score of 5-3.

1948: An ailing Babe Ruth makes his final appearance at Yankee Stadium. With the crowd of 49,641 singing Auld Lang Syne, and members of the 1923 Yankees team (the first to play in the stadium) looking on, the New York Yankees retire Ruth's uniform number 3 during ceremonies that also commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Stadium. Fewer than two months later, the 53-year-old Ruth will die from throat cancer.


1957: Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox hits three home runs with five runs batted in as Boston beats the Indians, 9 - 3, at Cleveland Stadium. Williams, who had a three-homer game earlier in the year, becomes the first American League player to collect two such games in a single season.

1957: In a game which features the ejection of Johnny Logan and Don Drysdale as a result of fighting, Clem Labine loses for the first time in ten months and 38 appearances in relief as the Milwaukee Braves defeat the Brooklyn Dodgers, 8 - 5. Logan charges the mound after getting drilled in the ribs by Drysdale resulting in banishment for both players.

1959: The Detroit Tigers selected Bob Smith off waivers from the Pittsburgh Pirates.

1962: The Detroit Tigers signed Tom Fletcher as an amateur free agent.

1965: Tigers win on an 8th-inning RBI single by pitcher Hank Aguirre in the Tigers 5 - 4 win over twins.

1980: Pete Rose of the Philadelphia Phillies goes 4 for 5 to move past Honus Wagner into fifth place on the all-time hit list with 3,431.

1984: Blue Jays 7 - Tigers 3. Tigers stymied by Dave Stieb's 7 scoreless innings, fell behind 7-0 before scoring 3 in the 8th. Tigers' AL East lead is back down to 6. Through 60 games, Tigers are 44-16 (9-11 in last 20) #Relive84

1992: Tigers score 4 in the first inning, 3 in the 3rd and 8 in the 8th in a 15-1 thrashing of the first-place Orioles. Rob Deer goes 3-for-5 with 2 home runs and a double. Cecil Fielder & Mickey Tettleton also go deep. Mark Leiter pitches a complete game.
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D88ptNFXkAIQidl.jpg

2000: Tigers beat the Blue Jays 16-3. Bobby Higginson went 4-4 with 2 home runs & 7 RBI. Brad Ausmus and Shane Halter also had 4 hits; Ausmus homering & scoring 4 runs. Juan Gonzalez also homered.

2001: The Oakland Athletics selected Billy McMillon off waivers from the Detroit Tigers.

2003: Roger Clemens reaches his 300th win and becomes the third pitcher in major league history with 4,000 strikeouts, leading the New York Yankees over the St. Louis Cardinals, 5 - 2, in interleague play. Edgar Renteria becomes his 4,000th victim in the 2nd inning. Clemens, the 21st pitcher to make it to 300, allows two runs in 6 2/3 innings and strikes out 10, raising his total to 4,006. Clemens joins Nolan Ryan (5,714) and Steve Carlton (4,136) in the select 4,000-strikeout club.

2008: The Detroit Tigers signed Fernando Seguignol as a free agent.

2010: Hank Greenberg mural by Jeremy Sutton is displayed at the Jewish Sports Hall of Fame, where Shawn Green receives the inaugural Hank Greenberg Award.

2011: Just 6 hits shy of joining the 3000 hit club, Derek Jeter must put his quest on hold as he exits today's 1 - 0 Yankees loss to the Cleveland Indians with a sore right calf and goes on the disabled list. Jeter gets hit number 2994 with a 1st-inning single off Carlos Carrasco, but leaves in the 5th after feeling a strain while running to first base.

2012: The Detroit Tigers signed Cesar Carrillo as a free agent.

2017: The Detroit Tigers drafted Dane Myers in the 6th round of the 2017 amateur draft. Player signed June 17, 2017.

2019: Shohei Ohtani becomes the first Japanese player to hit for the cycle in Major League Baseball as he pulls off the feat in a 5 - 3 Angels win over the Rays.

2021: The Blue Jays set a record for a visiting team at Fenway Park by blasting 8 homers in an 18 - 4 win over the Red Sox. Seven different players go deep, with Teoscar Hernandez doing so twice, while Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hits his major league-leading 21st.

SATURDAY SURVEY.
Totally Tigers

Casey Mize will be a free agent at the end of this season. Currently, he has some of the best stats on the starting rotation – #1 in ERA and #2 in WHIP (but almost tied for #1 with Tarik Skubal).
He was the Tigers #1 draft pick and #1 overall in MLB back in 2018.
Mize has had 7 years with the Tigers but only 3 of them so far as full seasons. Injuries, especially to the hamstrings, have been a yearly event.
The Tigers will lose the majority of their starting rotation after this year. Tarik Skubal, Jack Flaherty, Justin Verlander and Mize will be gone in 2027. Only Framber Valdez and Keider Montero will be back. Technically, so will Reese Olson and Jackson Jobe but they’ve yet to be tested after having their arms surgically repaired.
The Tigers go through an average of 11-12 different starting pitchers per year.
Should they extend Mize beyond this year? He just turned 29 last month and is earning just over $6 mill. His agent is not Scott Boras.
Logically, he’d be looking for a 4-5 year contract.

Should the Tigers extend Casey Mize?

1. Yes, extend him.

2. No, it's time to move on.

The Tigers today activated RHP Kenley Jansen off the 10-day injured list, selected the contract of RHP Jacob Waguespack (#58) and added OF James Outman (#43) to the active roster. All three players are available last night in the series opener at Cleveland.
To make room on the active roster, RHP Beau Brieske was optioned to Triple-A Toledo after yesterday’s game, INF Zack Short was designated for assignment and RHP Brenan Hanifee was optioned to Triple-A.

Their absence has flown a bit under the radar with all the other iniuries, but the Tigers really miss Parker Meadows + Javy Báez. Detroit has a bottom 3 defense in MLB. Meadows + Báez are not only the Tigers’ 2 best non-catcher defenders, they also bring some juice to the lineup.

A.J. Hinch on Flaherty: "He slipped on the mound and then he was able to recover and tolerate it. He talked a little bit about it in the 2nd inning, and then the [comebacker in 3rd] really irritated him. We're going to get tests and get him worked up and looked at and all that."
