  • Are Detroit Tigers and Tarik Skubal really $250 million apart? Here's what we know
    Oct 21 2025

    The Detroit Tigers are officially in offseason mode with big questions looming. On "Days of Roar," Evan Petzold and Chris Brown ("Tigers Minor League Report") dive into two of the biggest questions: Are the Tigers and Tarik Skubal really $250 million apart in contract talks? Will the Tigers try to sign Alex Bregman again in free agency? Later, Mike Ferrin, co-host of "Power Alley" on MLB Network Radio, joins the show to preview the World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays, along with sharing all of his thoughts on the Tigers. We also take a look at the Tigers' free agents, the upcoming Jack Flaherty and Gleyber Torres decisions, and what manager A.J. Hinch meant when he said the Tigers won't "just run it back" in 2026. Could the Tigers trade one of their core players?

  • Scott Harris, Tarik Skubal and what's next for Detroit Tigers after MLB postseason exit
    Oct 14 2025

    The 2025 season is over for the Detroit Tigers after a heartbreaking 15-inning loss to the Seattle Mariners in Game 5 of the ALDS, which eliminated the Tigers from the MLB postseason. The Tigers have been knocked out of the playoffs in Game 5 of the ALDS in each of the past two seasons. On "Days of Roar," Evan Petzold and Chris Brown ("Tigers Minor League Report") share takeaways from the Tigers' postseason run and discuss the big offseason topic. What happened to the Tigers in Game 5 of the ALDS? Should the Tigers trade Tarik Skubal this offseason? We also react to what president of baseball operations Scott Harris and manager A.J. Hinch outlined during the end-of-season press conference, with Harris putting the blame on the offense. If the offense is the problem, then what's the plan to fix the offense ahead of the 2026 season? We look into Hinch's contract extension, plus what the Tigers need most in the offseason.

  • Detroit Tigers in MLB postseason: ALDS vs. Seattle Mariners underway after overcoming Cleveland Guardians
    Oct 6 2025

    The Detroit Tigers are still playing postseason baseball — and they're finally home. The Tigers split the first two games of the ALDS against the Seattle Mariners after taking down the Cleveland Guardians in the AL wild-card series. On "Days of Roar," Evan Petzold and Chris Brown ("Tigers Minor League Report") discuss overcoming the Guardians, the better ALCS matchup for the Tigers (Toronto Blue Jays or New York Yankees), the offense with runners in scoring position and the bullpen needing to be lights out without run support. To help break down the ALDS, Ryan Divish — the Mariners beat writer for the Seattle Times — provides insight into the Mariners, including AL MVP candidate Cal Raleigh. For Game 3 of the ALDS, the Tigers selected Jack Flaherty as their starting pitcher. Should it have been Casey Mize? Colt Keith returned for the ALDS after missing two weeks with an injury. When will we see injured players Matt Vierling and Reese Olson join the Tigers?
