About this listen
The Detroit Tigers completed a 5-1 record during their six-game homestand at Comerica Park, highlighted by a three-game sweep of the Houston Astros and Riley Greene's 30th home run in a clutch moment against the Kansas City Royals. On this "Days of Roar" episode, Evan Petzold is joined by Chris Brown of "Tigers Minor League Report." We dig into the Big 2: How did the Tigers bounce back from their 1-12 slump in July, and what could the bullpen look like with rehabbing pitchers Alex Cobb and José Urquidy in new roles? Later, Baseball America prospect writer Geoff Pontes joins the show for a deep dive into Tigers No. 1 prospect Kevin McGonigle, whom he compares to Jose Altuve. As for the Tigers in the big leagues, Petzold and Brown tackle more bullpen questions, injury updates on Parker Meadows, Matt Vierling and Paul Sewald, and a 2026 conversation about Vierling.
