The lawyer representing Detroit Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera in his DUI case in Floriday raised the possiblity the All-Star first baseman might not be able to play in Canada if he is convicted.
Detroit Tigers Alex Avila, Miguel Cabrera, Jose Valverde and Justin Verlander will all be representing the club at this year's 2011 All-Star Game in Phoenix.
It's been 23 years since the Detroit Tigers last won a division title. Their play this season against AL Central foes could contribute greatly toward ending that drought.
Max Scherzer turned in his second walk-free start of the season and picked up his 10th win, giving up six hits and one run in 6 2/3 innings.
And maybe that's what the firing of Rick Knapp will do to Detroit's pitchers, almost all of whom acknowledged if they had done better, Jeff Jones would still be the bullpen coach instead of the new pitching coach.
Detroit Tigers outfielder Austin Jackson left Thursday night's game against the Kansas City Royals with a sore left wrist that could keep him out through the All-Star break.
Max Scherzer held the Royals in check while pitching into the seventh inning, Ryan Raburn belted a two-run homer and a shaky Detroit Tigers bullpen held on for a 3-1 victory over Kansas City on Thursday night.
The Wings have added another forward, signing free agent Chris Conner to a one year deal.
Brennan Boesch (bruised right knee) left the July 5 game, and he didn't play July 6. He is day-to-day.
The Kansas City Royals haven't won three straight games since early May. Facing the struggling Detroit Tigers may provide a good opportunity to accomplish the feat again.
Before this baseball season began, if we knew the following, the expectation for the Tigers would be that they'd run away with the American League Central.
Justin Verlander is going to start back-to-back games for the Tigers next week. Not on consecutive days, but consecutive games. The All-Star break makes that feat possible.
Miguel Cabrera got another big hit for Detroit, a two-run home run to left that capped a three-run seventh and gave the Tigers enough runs to hold of the Angels, 5-4.
Miguel Cabrera homered during a three-run seventh inning and the Detroit Tigers broke out of an offensive funk and beat the Los Angeles Angels 5-4 on Wednesday.
Jim Leyland said he thinks the increased tension between umpires and teams has become a problem in baseball.
Things that run less than Bernstein commercials during Tiger games...
The Los Angeles Angels have been nearly unhittable over their last four games.
Speaking of the Tigers. Why is Ryan Raburn batting in the 8th inning last night against Haren?
Brennan Boesch had to come out of the game after batting in the third inning, suffering a bruised right knee when he fouled a ball off himself just before grounding out to the pitcher.
Justin Verlander is so dominating right now, he looks good even when he loses.
Alex Avila has grown up being known as Al Avila's son. Not anymore.
Dan Haren pitched a two-hitter while outdueling Verlander for his 100th career victory, and the Los Angeles Angels beat the Tigers 1-0 Tuesday night for their 10th win in 12 games.
For the second time in three years, the Detroit Tigers have teamed with the Philadelphia Phillies, encouraging fans to vote "Victor/Victorino" for both Tigers designated hitter/catcher Victor Martinez and for Phillies center fielder Shane Victorino in the 2011 All-Star Game Final Vote.
A marquee matchup is in store with Detroit's Justin Verlander set to renew acquaintances with Dan Haren.
Voting continues for the last AL All-Star spot with the Tigers Victor Martinez remaining in second place behind the White Sox Paul Konerko.
