TIGERS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Why do the Detroit Tigers have two different “D’s”

WHAT HAPPENED: Ian Kinsler hit a three-run home run in the Tigers' four-run fourth inning and finished with four RBIs as the Tigers edged the Indians in a sloppy, error-filled game to split their abridged two-game series.

Detroit Tigers: should Drew Smyly stay in the pen?
First off, it is not panic time for the Detroit Tigers. They are 5-2 atop the AL Central and have three winnable games against the Padres this weekend. The pretty record however, does mask some cause for concern.
