Top Tigers News

  • Tigers' Manuel Margot: Resumes running

    Margot (knee) participated in sprint drills Friday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    Margot was diagnosed with a patellar tendon strain in his left knee, which caused him to be placed on the 10-day injured list April 8. He appears to be progressing in his recovery running in the outfield, but he'll likely need to go on a rehab assignment before being activated from the IL. Prior to his injury, Margot went 6-for-20 with one run scored and three RBI.

  • Tigers' Parker Meadows: Does some light throwing Friday

    Meadows (arm) did some light throwing in the outfield Friday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    It was very light tossing from a short distance, but it nonetheless seems to be a step forward for the outfielder. Meadows is coming back from a nerve issue in his right arm and will need to rebuild his arm strength. He's already on the 60-day injured list, making him ineligible to return until late May.

  • Tigers' Beau Brieske: Yet to hit stride

    Brieske, who allowed a run during an inning of relief in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Royals, has an 8.59 ERA so far this season.

    Brieske has now allowed seven earned runs across 7.1 innings in 2025 and has only struck out four. Last year, the righty posted a 3.59 ERA and 69 strikeouts across 67.2 regular-season innings, emerging as one of Detroit's most dependable relievers. Brieske should be able to get back on track eventually, and as yet he hasn't been removed from his high-leverage role in the Tigers bullpen.

  • Tigers' Kerry Carpenter: Tallies three hits in win

    Carpenter went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs scored in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Royals.

    After sitting Wednesday against southpaw Jose Quintana, Carpenter returned with a bang Thursday. The outfielder pushed his OPS up to a stellar .913, which is actually a bit below last year's .932 mark. Carpenter still rests often against lefties, but when a righty is on the mound, he's become one of the better offensive threats in the American League.

  • Tigers' Riley Greene: Two RBI against Kansas City

    Greene went 3-for-5 with two RBI in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Royals.

    Greene logged just one hit and 18 strikeouts in his prior 32 at-bats, but he was more productive at the plate in Thursday's contest. All three of his hits resulted in singles, the first two of which drove in runs in the third and fifth innings, respectively. Greene has struggled as of late, but his performance in the series opener may be a sign of things to come for the Tigers and the 24-year-old outfielder.

  • Tigers' Tommy Kahnle: Logs third save

    Kahnle tossed two scoreless innings in Thursday's 6-1 win over Kansas City to earn his third save of the season.

    Kahnle inherited two baserunners when he was called in for the eighth inning with Detroit leading 4-1, but he was able to force two-straight groundouts (the first of which resulted in a double play) to get out of the frame unscathed. After the Tigers tacked on two insurance runs, he came back out for the ninth inning and needed just nine pitches to retire the side and register his third save of the 2025 campaign. Kahnle has a 1.29 ERA, 0.43 WHIP and 5:0 K:BB across seven innings, as he has settled into the closer role.

  • Tigers' Reese Olson: Tosses five shutout innings in win

    Olson (2-1) earned the win against the Royals on Thursday, allowing four hits and two walks while striking out five across five scoreless innings.

    Olson allowed at least two baserunners in two of the five frames he pitched, but he managed to get out of those innings without yielding a run. The 25-year-old right-hander has won four straight games at Comerica Park dating back to the 2024 regular season, and through his first four starts in 2025 he's posted a 4.50 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 18:10 K:BB across 20 innings. Olson's next start is slated for next week at home against the Padres.

  • Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Drives in three runs

    Torkelson went 2-for-4 with one walk, one double and three RBI in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Royals.

    Torkelson opened Thursday's scoring with a two-run double in the third inning, and he tallied a third RBI in the eighth frame when his single to center field brought Ryan Kreidler home. Torkelson has logged at least one RBI in five of his last six games and has a 1.035 OPS over that span.

  • Tigers' Keider Montero: Sticking around in majors

    Montero remains on the Tigers' active roster following Wednesday's start against the Brewers and is expected to pitch again in 4-to-5 days, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

    It was anticipated that Montero would be sent back down to the minors following what was expected to be a spot start. However, manager A.J. Hinch said "there was a lot we liked" about Montero's start in Milwaukee, and "we're hoping to get another outing of him." Whether that's another start or perhaps an extended relief appearance isn't clear. Montero permitted five runs on eight hits across five innings against the Brewers, but he also walked just one and struck out eight.

  • Tigers' Jason Foley: To Triple-A IL with shoulder strain

    Foley was placed on the 7-day injured list by Triple-A Toledo on Thursday due a right shoulder strain, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

    Foley struck out nine and permitted just one hit over 6.2 scoreless innings in his first five appearances with Toledo, but he hadn't pitched in several days and now it's been revealed why. It's not clear how long he might be sidelined, but the former Tigers closer will not be an option for the big club for a while.

  • Tigers' Sean Guenther: Starting rehab assignment

    Guenther (back) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Lakeland on Thursday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

    Guenther has been on the 7-day injured list all season with Triple-A Toledo due to lumbar spine inflammation. He'll eventually move up to Toledo once deemed ready and could help the Tigers' bullpen at some point later this season.

  • Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Goes deep in loss

    Torkelson went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Brewers.

    As was the case Sunday when the Tigers fell 5-1 to the Twins, Torkelson provided all of the team's offense with a solo shot. The slugger is now up to six home runs through 18 games, and if he keeps up this level of production and stays relatively healthy, Torkelson has a good shot to surpass the career high of 31 long balls he posted back in 2023.

  • Tigers' Keider Montero: Takes loss in season debut

    Montero (0-1) allowed five runs on eight hits across five innings to take the loss Wednesday against the Brewers. He walked one and struck out eight.

    Montero, who was recalled from Triple-A Toledo earlier Wednesday for the spot start, struggled to keep the ball in the park during his 2025 MLB debut. The righty was tagged for home runs by Christian Yelich, Rhys Hoskins and Sal Frelick. The eight strikeouts were a bright spot for Montero, as he recorded only a 7.0 K/9 during his 2024 rookie season. He could now return to the minors, as the Tigers were simply giving their other starters a bit of extra rest and don't have any injuries in the rotation.

  • Tigers' Keider Montero: Recalled ahead of spot start

    The Tigers recalled Montero from Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday.

    Montero will get a spot start Wednesday in Milwaukee as the Tigers look to provide their regular rotation members with extra rest. The right-hander was off to a nice start with Toledo, permitting three runs with an 11:1 K:BB over 9.2 frames covering his first two outings.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Tigers' Zach McKinstry: Not starting versus lefty

    McKinstry is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Milwaukee, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    The lefty-swinging McKinstry will grab a seat as left-hander Jose Quintana toes the slab for the Brewers. McKinstry has been seeing most of his playing time in right field lately, but that spot will be covered by Justyn-Henry Malloy in Wednesday's series finale.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Tigers' Dillon Dingler: Getting breather Wednesday

    Dingler is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Brewers, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    Dingler caught the first two games of the series, so he'll get a breather in Wednesday's matinee. Tomas Nido will be behind the plate and bat seventh.
