3-run jack by Miggy.

Home run number 510 for Miggy. 1 more to tie Giants slugger Mel Ott, and 2 more to tie Ernie Banks and Eddie Mathews.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Astros 32 baserunners today if my math checks out.

I think this puts the nail in the season. Au minnie would have to have the total collapse to lose the Division.

Kind of fitting. JV shuts out the Tigers for 5 innings and the Astros get 25 hits in the game. :lmao::lmao:

Tigers waive infielder, opening spot on 40-man roster.
Mlive

The Tigers now have one vacancy on their 40-man roster. Two of the club?s most notable position player prospects -- Colt Keith and Justyn-Henry Malloy -- are candidates for promotion to Detroit before the end of the season. Neither are currently on the 40-man roster.

It?s also possible the Tigers are maneuvering to add another pitcher, as the bullpen has been taxed in recent days, including Sunday?s 17-4 blowout.

Finally, it?s possible that today?s move is merely roster housekeeping, and no other move is imminent.

I don't know why they picked Diaz up in the first place
