Max Clark

DET Center Fielder #95

11hThe Tigers promoted top prospects Max Clark, Kevin McGonigle and Josue Briceño from High-A West Michigan to Double-A Erie on Sunday.

Clark, the third overall selection from the 2023 draft class, was hitting .285/.430/.427 with seven homers, 47 RBI and 12 stolen bases in his first 68 games at West Michigan. McGonigle was even better there — slashing a blistering .358/.450/.617 with seven homers, 39 RBI and three stolen bases in just 42 contests. Briceño was no slouch himself, slashing .296/.422/.602 with 15 long balls and 57 RBI. The Tigers own the best record in the American League at the moment and their future continues to look exceedingly bright.

Tarik Skubal

DET Starting Pitcher #29

12hReigning American League Cy Young award winner Tarik Skubal will lead the pitching staff for the American League All-Stars that were announced on Sunday.

It’s the second consecutive trip to the Mid-Summer Classic for the 28-year-old southpaw. He’ll be joined on the American League staff by fellow starting pitchers Max Fried, Hunter Brown, Kris Bubic, Garrett Crochet, Jacob deGrom, Yusei Kikuchi, Shane Smith and Bryan Woo. They’ll be joined by relievers Andres Munoz, Aroldis Chapman and Josh Hader.

Riley Greene

DET Center Fielder #31

13hRiley Greene went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run against the Guardians on Sunday.

Greene’s home run was No. 22 for him on the year. The 24-year-old outfielder crushed a two-run home run off Cade Smith in extra-innings. Greene continues to enjoy a breakout season that has put him in the starting lineup for the American League in the All-Star game. He’s hitting .286 with an .879 OPS and 71 RBI on the season.

Trey Sweeney

DET Shortstop #27

13hTrey Sweeney went 1-for-3 with a walk and a three-run home run against the Guardians on Sunday.

The home run was Sweeney’s fifth of the season. The 25-year-old shortstop hit a go-ahead three-run home run in extra-innings off Cade Smith. It was the first home run that came on a fastball in Sweeney’s big league career. Sweeney was recalled from the minor leagues when Kerry Carpenter (hamstring) hit the injured list, but he’s more of a bench option for the Tigers and waiver wire fodder for fantasy managers.

Tarik Skubal

DET Starting Pitcher #29

13hTarik Skubal tossed seven scoreless inning and got a no-decision in the Tigers’ 7-2 victory over the Guardians on Sunday.

Skubal gave up three hits, walked none and struck out 10. It was another dominant effort for the 28-year-old left-hander as he looks to repeat as the American League Cy Young award winner. Skubal didn’t get the win because the Tigers didn’t score until later in the game, but he lowered his ERA to 2.02 on the year. Skubal is lined up to face the Mariners on the road next weekend.

Dietrich Enns

DET Starting Pitcher #51

18hTigers manager A.J. Hinch told reporters Dietrich Enns is being moved back to the bullpen.

Enns will not longer be taking the ball on Monday against the Rays. The 34-year-old southpaw was torched for eight runs — seven earned — over four innings on Thursday in a loss to the Nationals. He’ll pitch in relief moving forward and can be safely ignored in most fantasy formats.

PJ Poulin

DET Relief Pitcher

18hTigers selected the contract of LHP PJ Poulin from Triple-A Toledo.

Poulin will remain at Triple-A Toledo for the moment, but he’s been added to the club’s 40-man roster after pitching to a strong 3.72 ERA and 54/14 K/BB ratio across 36 1/3 innings (29 appearances) this season in the minors. The 28-year-old southpaw had an upward mobility clause in his contract with Detroit and they didn’t want to risk losing him to another organization.

Sean Guenther

DET Relief Pitcher #73

18hTigers recalled LHP Sean Guenther from Triple-A Toledo; placed him on the 60-day injured list.

Guenther underwent season-ending hip surgery last week. The procedural move frees up a spot on Detroit’s 40-man roster.

Gleyber Torres

DET 2nd Baseman #25

19hGleyber Torres (neck) is not in the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Guardians.

Torres will sit out Sunday afternoon’s showdown out of an abundance of caution following an early exit from Saturday’s game with a neck contusion. It’ll be Colt Keith taking over at the keystone in his absence. There doesn’t seem to be a high level of concern for the 28-year-old All-Star second baseman at the moment, so fantasy managers should anticipate him being ready for Monday’s series opener against the Rays.

Casey Mize

DET Starting Pitcher #12

1dCasey Mize blanked the Guardians for seven innings Saturday to earn his ninth win as the Tigers prevailed 1-0.

Mize allowed four hits, walked two and struck out four in his third straight win. As effective as he’s been this year, this is the first time he’s gone without allowing a run since his opener against the Mariners on Apr. 1. His only other career start of at least seven scoreless innings came on Apr. 12, 2021 against the Astros. Mize is tied for third in the majors in wins, and he would be 12th in ERA if he weren’t five innings short of qualifying. That’s a solid All-Star case.
