Can the Tigers Overcome Their Epic Collapse and Rewrite Their Postseason Destiny?

Detroit Tigers Preview

Of all the teams that made the playoffs last season, Detroit has to be the most interesting team in the entire league. It isn’t just that they limped to the finish line last year. This was after looking like the best team in the American League for a reasonable portion of the season. The Tigers had one of the more interesting offseasons as well, so what do they have in store for the 2026 campaign? 

Last year recap:

The Tigers, as mentioned, were one of the best teams in the American League. They’ve now made the playoffs two years in a row, but even them getting to the playoffs last year was significantly in jeopardy after a complete disaster. They were running away with the American League Central division and then stumbled toward the end. Detroit was certainly built around pitching, and they still are, but this offense and pitching imploded near the end of the year. It also didn’t help that they got cold when the Guardians got hot. They were 22 games above .500 on September 10th, and finished just 12 games over 18 days later. They lost the Central, but they won the war by beating Cleveland in the Wild Card round. Ultimately, they pushed the Mariners to the brink as well, but lost 3-2 in Game 5.
