Jurrjens was decent in this second stint as a Tiger, but he required lots of run support and a deep bullpen to preserve his undefeated record.
Shields is safe for the short term; he has one remaining year on his contract following this season. It wouldn't surprise me if this trade benefited both teams. The Rays also acquired the struggling catching prospect, Robert Stewart.
James Shields' Tigers debut is this Saturday, at home against the Arizona Diamondbacks. He is 4th in the rotation.
W: 4-0
Matt Cain delivers 6 shutout innings. Mike Minor records another save after 3 innings of work. Ike Davis and Miguel Cabrera homered.
W: 5-0
Johnny Cueto was dominant. He only gave up 3 hits and struck out 11 in 6 2/3 innings. Adam Jones homered to dead center; Ryan Braun drove in two.
W: 5-3
Jair Jurrjens struggled through 5 2/3 innings. Jeff Karstens had his way with the Tigers through the first 5 innings, but the Tigers broke through with three in the 6th and added another in th 7th. Mike Minor earned the winning decision, and Craig Kimbrel converted the save.

W: 17-3
There were strong offensive performances on both sides. Ike Davis went 4-5 with two home runs. JJ Hardy also hit two home runs Brian McCann was 5-6 with a home run. Adam Jones notched his 1,000th career hit. Alexei Ramirez went 4-5 for the White Sox.
W: 4-3
Doug Fister cruised through the first five innings, but a Ryan Braun error opened the door for a three-run Chicago 6th. Brett Lawrie and Jerry Sands homered for 2 of the 12 hits off John Danks.
W: 13-1
Ike Davis went 5-6, hitting two doubles and drving in three. Brett Lawrie went 3-5 and homered. Justin Verlander pitched a complete game and only gave up one hit through the first 6 inninhs.

W: 5-2
A 5-run 2nd inning shortened the day for Aaron Cook, but the Royals' bullpen gave up nothing else to Detroit. Craig Kimbrel closed out an interesting 9th inning.
W: 7-2
In his Detroit Tigers debut, Matt Cain rebounded nicely after 2 ER in the 1st inning. The Tigers added on 16 hits to complement Cain's complete game.
W: 11-4
The Royals got a leg up on Johnny Cueto early, but the Tigers scored 10 total runs between the 4th and 6th innings, punctuated by 3-run home runs from Brett Lawrie and Brian McCann.

With 1.3 seconds remaining, Singler took one step forward and launched the ball one-handedly over his right shoulder. Though this ball traveled nearly the entire length of the court, it got all net, and it sent the Pistons to overtime.
A new-found resolve gave the Pistons the strength to carry on through overtime. They won 103-96.

W: 2-1
Both the Tigers and Indians exchanged 1st inning runs. Ike Davis' home run in the 4th proved to be the difference. Craig Kimbrel struck out the side in the 9th for the save.
W: 5-4
The Tigers broke out in the 6th with a Mark Trumbo two RBI double and a JJ Hardy RBI single. The Indians rallied for two in the 7th, thanks to Ezequiel Carrerra (all 4 RBI), but they were stymied by Craig Kimbrel in the 9th.
W: 4-3
Josh Donald delivered what seemed to be the final blow in such a close game, with his solo homer in the 8th. However, the Tigers scored two runs on three doubles to walk off as winners.
Sunday, March 10, 2013
This time, the new Tiger is Matt Cain, slightly more expensive than Hamels. However, he is a year younger (and also not a lefty...). Cain will assume the second spot in the rotation behind Justin Verlander. In addition to that, Cain will seek to rectify his 4.27 ERA.
W: 11-1
Though nowhere near the most runs scored in a game this season, Detroit had one of its best offensive games yet. Tom Milone was gone after only 3 2/3 IP. Ryan Braun went 2-3 with 2BB, 3B, HR, 4 R, 5 RBI.
W: 16-0
Doug Fister threw a complete game one-hit shutout of the As, striking out 10. Every Tiger had at least one hit and at least one run scored. Brett Lawrie homered and hit two doubles. JJ Hardy homered twice.
W: 5-1
Nursing a sore calf, Ryan Braun was not in the lineup. The Tigers got ahold of Brett Anderson early, scoring all five runs in the 2nd. JJ Hardy hit a three-run home run and Adam Jones hit a two-run home run to cap off the inning. Justin Verlander pitched a complete game, despite giving up the solo home run to Michael Taylor.
W: 4-2
The A's struck first in another weak Cole Hamels start, but the Tigers took the lead for good in the 5th with help from David Freese and JJ Hardy who doubled. Ryan Braun sat out yet another game. He will return late in this week.

Saturday, February 23, 2013
Black was fired after a slow start to what is now the 2013 season. In a division where it is becoming increasingly harder to get ahead, the Padres decided that Bud Black would not be of help in that endeavor.
Despite his desire to return to the Major League circuit as soon as possible, Black accepted the three year deal with the Class A Lakeland Flying Tigers. The organization hopes that a higher quality staff will eventually turn into an acceleration of potential for our prospects.
Black will inherit a sub-.500 team that is in striking distance of the co-division leaders.
In other news, the organization hopes to upgrade at hitting coach, pitching coach, and training. They expect to fill those positions by hiring those on the rebound, like Bud Black.
W: 5-3
The Tigers get most of the scoring done early, thanks to back-to-back homers from Brett Lawrie and Miguel Cabrera in a new, shuffled lineup. Casper Wells homered against his former team. However, Detroit's late insurance run came as a result of Wellington Castillo's RBI double in the top of the 9th. Craig Kimbrel saved the game.
W: 8-3
Mike Carp homered twice, but many of the Tigers responded with offense themselves. Ike Davis went 4-5, driving in three, only lacking the triple for the cycle. Miguel Cabrera homered yet again; he leads the majors in RBI. Brian McCann chipped in with 2 RBI as well; he's had a quiet stint with the Tigers so far.
The bullpen was solid again pitching three innings of relief behind Johnny Cueto. Collectively, they only allowed four hits and struck out six.
