Tigers News
The Tigers' recent surge hit a snag with a disappointing 3-2 loss to the Guardians in the series opener, a stark contrast to their explosive 11-0 victory over the Twins just days prior. Jack Flaherty, who has struggled with a 5.31 ERA this season, left the game early due to a leg injury, complicating the already shaky rotation ahead of crucial returns from Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize. Meanwhile, the Tigers made several bold roster moves, including the activation of Kenley Jansen and the addition of Jacob Waguespack, signaling a desire for fresh energy in the bullpen. Riley Greene continues to shine, but the team must find more consistent offensive support if they hope to turn their season around amidst these injuries and lineup changes.
