So does Skubal's contract rise when he wins the Cy Young?

yes. He is year 2 of arbitration.

Update: Minny just scored two to go ahead 2-1 top 5th.

Brennan Hanifee threw in his first game AUG 1, he has now appeared 18 times thrown 25 innings allowing 6 runs..2 of those runs were on his first night..hell of a run ..and he keeps getting better.

Jaden Hamm has been named the 2024 Midwest League Pitcher of the Year. The righty posted a 2.64 ERA in 99 IP with 122 Ks as part of a breakout season, seeing him go from an unranked Top-30 prospect in the Tigers
system to a Top-100 MLB Baseball America prospect.

How did the Detroit Tigers get here?

Is this our beautiful team? The rampaging Tigers are winning in all phases of the game, and it’s hardly the fluke you might think it is.

Technically still a game back

Technically MLB.com shows us ahead. Even if we are Technically 1 game out due to tie-breakers.

FIVE FOR FRIDAY.
Totally Tigers

As Tiger fans, over the past 7 years, many of us have practiced “must flee tv” given the team’s tear down and attempted rebuild.
But now?
It’s “must see tv.”
These games, especially over the past 2 months, have been exciting to watch, haven’t they? And we’ve got our eyes on a number of players.
So who are the 5 players, whether they’re at the plate or in the field, that you drop everything so you can watch them?
I’ve got my 5………
1. KERRY CARPENTER
2. RILEY GREENE
3. PARKER MEADOWS
4. TARIK SKUBAL
5. TREY SWEENEY (guess why)
