The Detroit Tigers are being linked to this 3.44 ERA starter in free agency, as the organization is expected to make a big splash soon.

The San Diego Padres seem bound to lose Michael King in free agency after losing Dylan Cease to the Toronto Blue Jays.

Their top free agent targets leave on combined $88 million contracts to the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Detroit Tigers. While they're pivoting elsewhere now, the Braves lost out on two free agents to the Dodgers and Tigers.

Early on Tuesday, it was reported that the San Diego Padres were interested in trading Nick Pivetta, who is the team's top starting pitcher.

Where have you gone, Kurt Bevacqua? Padres fans turn their lonely eyes to you. The Padres’ one — and only — World Series victory occurred 41 years ago Friday, when Bevacqua belted a three-run home run on the way to a 5-3 win over the Detroit Tigers.

The Detroit Tigers have a reputation both from their own fanbase and generally across baseball as a small market club that is not willing to spend.

The Tigers are looking to go big-game hunting as they set their sights on a talented, but oft-injured (in 2025) starting pitcher.
