9/29/24	Tigers ready for a reboot after another loss to White Sox, turn attention to playoffs. Detroit ? Control-alt-delete. The Tigers are happily hitting the reboot button for the playoffs, after a couple of listless performances in the final two games of the regular season, a pair of losses to the historically awful Chicago White Sox at Comerica Park. Chicago beat up on Kenta Maeda and Detroit, 9-5, in the final game of the regular season Sunday. It marked just the third time since the Tigers officially got hot Aug. 11 that they've lost consecutive games, after falling, 4-0, on Saturday, one day after clinching a most-surprising berth in the playoffs.

9/20/24	From rock bottom to playoff push: How Tigers turned around their 2024 season. The Detroit Tigers were in the midst of their longest road trip of the season. The Tigers jumped out to a 3-0 lead before the Twins responded with 12 unanswered runs, nine against struggling Detroit starter Kenta Maeda. The game was mercifully called in the seventh inning when a Twins player was nearly drilled in the head by a pitch that slipped out of the hand of Tigers reliever Shelby Miller. The Tigers were 39-48, out of the playoff race and marching toward another trade deadline as sellers. Source: https://www.mlive.com/tigers/2024/09/from-rock-bot...

8/02/24	'Don't want to mess him up': Tigers keeping Kenta Maeda in bulk innings role for now. On the surface, it seems strange that the Tigers haven't just, out of pure necessity, reinserted veteran Kenta Maeda back into the starting rotation. Yes, Maeda did struggle mightily in his 15 starts. Well, that's not how manager AJ Hinch is looking at it. Just because Maeda hasn't thrown the first inning, his bulk innings work can function the same as a starter's role. Source: https://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/mlb/tiger...

7/10/24	What should Tigers do about struggling starter Kenta Maeda?. The Detroit Tigers have lost eight games in a row when Kenta Maeda is on the mound.

It's possible rainy weather will make it easy to reconfigure the pitching staff. Maeda, 36, looks nothing like the pitcher he did last summer with the Minnesota Twins.
