If the Tigers are serious about beating the Guardians, they need to adopt Cleveland's blueprint

Better drafting, and particularly better work out of Latin America, is key to keeping up with the Guardians' steady ways. It makes some likely Tigers deadline deals all the more of an imperative.

Tigers-Guardians rainout Sunday forces another tweak to rotation plans.
The finale of the Tigers-Guardians series at Progressive Field was postponed Sunday because of a thick line of storms that rolled through the state.
The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader on Sept. 4 (2:10 p.m. and 7:10 p.m.)
Sunday was supposed to be the return of Casey Mize to the Tigers' rotation. But he will have to wait three more days. He is now scheduled to start the finale in Houston on Wednesday.

INTERVIEW: Tigers rookie Kevin McGonigle talks All-Star ability, old-school approach, $150M deal. 12 1/2 minutes.
Detroit Tigers rookie Kevin McGonigle is showing off his All-Star abilities in his first MLB season, doing it with an old-school approach — at the age of 21. McGonigle talked with Brad Galli about his momentous first months as a big-leaguer, signing his eight-year, $150 million extension 17 games into the season, and why Tigers fans of all generations already love the way he plays.


Justin Verlander will pitch in Houston, sort of. He'll pitch a simulated game on Monday to keep him on a five-day schedule following his rehab start last Wednesday.
