Best interview of the season so far?
Happy Doubleheader Day, friends! The Tigers will see a heck of a lot of the Rockies today, and hopefully the games won’t be quite as close as they were last night.
Last night, Jason and Andy were joined during the broadcast by Jack White of the White Stripes, and not only was he a good luck charm, helping the Tigers tie up the game, he was also incredibly cool and knowledgeable (and apparently never misses a game!)
Some interesting other little tidbits in today’s news roundup, but I won’t spoil anything for you, just grab a coffee and get reading!
Detroit Tigers News:
- If you missed the best part of last night’s broadcast, aside from the game itself, it was superstar musician and favored Detroit son Jack White joining the broadcast booth, and it’s worth watching the whole thing.
- A quick look at the Tigers’ current injuries suggests May could be a very busy month for roster changes, if all goes well .
OF Manuel Margot has been returned from rehab, activated off of the 10-day injured list and assigned outright to Triple-A Toledo.
Detroit’s 40-man roster now stands at 38 players.
Additionally, RHP Kenta Maeda has been placed on unconditional release waivers.
