Normally, a Verlander start would be all about Verlander. But recently, the Tigers have fallen into a funk where sharp starting efforts have been undone by an inability to score runs on offense. Last night after a brief bit of trouble in the first (exacerbated by Cabrera’s failure to turn a DP), Max Scherzer settled down and had one of his best outings of the season.

Detroit Tigers, 73-63, 2nd place, 1 back, WC 6th place.
Every game counts.
Don’t blame me for that, that’s the official Tigers.com slogan. A lot of us were saying that back in May, but they didn’t seem to count as much back then, at least officially.
Anyway, let us not detract from the matter at hand, which is:Â Battle of the MVPs! Tonight Miguel Cabrera and the Detroit...

Road struggles and one-run losses trip Tigers

If the Detroit Tigers stumble and bumble their way out of the playoffs, they can look in many directions for the reasons. Two of the most prominent this late in the year, both linked by an inability to get big hits, are the Tigers' failure to win on the road and a dismal record in one-run games. Detroit began a 10-game road trip with three straight losses in Anaheim to the...

An outfielder’s first step should always be back.  When a ball is hit back toward the wall, you’re taught to go find the wall first and then re-find the ball.  Fundamentals.  Tigers Gold Glove-caliber center fielder Austin Jackson did just that Sunday afternoon on a ball Angels slugger Mark Trumbo hit to the center field wall.
It’s amazing what solid fundamentalsâ...

Another bad day finished off a bad week in what has so far been a bad month. Yes, that is a
whole lot of bad thrown in there. The Game of the Day feature was rained out. That has
never happened before. Aces like Justin Verlander and C.C. Sabathia were not sharp. And
that Teixeira out call at first? Terrible. The Cardinals keep losing. And, yeah, that Astros pick
was stupid. Sorry...
