You can try to explain it. Lots of writers have, often with different conclusions. Here's the reality: The #Tigers simply are a matchup nightmare for opponents. Baseball often can be predictable. The Tigers, absolutely, are not predictable.

The last time the #Guardians faced the #Tigers was at the trade deadline, just as Detroit was selling and — let’s be honest — looking ahead to 2025. Now, they meet again, in the ALDS, starting Saturday.

Hunter Brown is a genuine competitor and put forth an amazing performance today. Houston and Detroit should be proud of him, we are at Wayne State University.

In the three-game, wild-card series since MLB expanded the playoff field to 12 in 2022, teams that have won Game 1 are now 11-0. The Brewers can snap that drought against the Mets today.

Two overlooked plays in the #Tigers sweep of the Astros: 1) Parker Meadows beating out the DP in Game 1; that led to the three runs, all with two outs. 2) Spencer Torkelson’s walk in the eighth inning of Game 2. He didn’t try to be the hero. Next batter, Andy Ibanez, won it.
