Opportunity knocks for Don Kelly
KISSIMMEE, Fla. -- Opportunity is knocking for Don Kelly, and the likable Detroit Tigers utility player could be ready to take advantage of it.
Kelly is the most seasoned option to replace Andy Dirks if Detroit manager Brad Ausmus doesn't end up going strictly with right-handed hitter Rajai Davis and shelving the platoon system. Kelly bats left-handed just like Dirks, who is...

Don Kelly caught with his pants down
Don Kelly's legend has grown. You might say that his legend as a Tiger is a grower not a show-er.

Tigers’ Don Kelly’s bare ass and junk caught on camera

Don Kelly can't be stopped (lately)
New rule: If Rod Allen says a team can't stop Don Kelly, drink a keg.
But Don Kelly really is en fuego. He's hitting 7-for-15 with runners in scoring position (2-for-6 in those situations with two outs), according to Jason Beck. He's 5-for-7 in his last 9 plate appearances with five RBI, including that game winning three-run dinger on Sunday. That's almost quite...

Tigers' Kelly robs Blue Jays of a home run

Detroit Tigers: the bench battle
