The Detroit Lions may already have a quarterback problem
At the outset of the 2023 offseason, Lions general manager Brad Holmes professed how a level of emphasis would be placed on the No. 2 quarterback spot behind Jared Goff. "Going into this past year, yeah, we went down to the umpteenth hour trying to figure out what we were gonna do at number two. “I’ve let it be known internally that we’re not gonna be in that position again heading into this year, so we have to get that settled. I thought Nate Sudfeld did a nice job with us, so we’ll figure that out. But, I am gonna make it a point of emphasis and make sure that, being that we’re finally in a position to address that quarterback room behind Jared, we have been in that position in the past. But, we’re gonna make that a point of emphasis this year.”"

Dillon Dingler is making his move in Toledo
After a solid run of homegrown catchers from Alex Avila to James McCann, the Detroit Tigers have been waiting for their next backstop for over a decade now. In 2020, they drafted Ohio State catcher Dillon Dingler with the first pick in the second round of the MLB draft. After a strong start to his pro career, Dingler continued to impress with his ever improving defensive abilities and leadership, but his development as a hitter was pretty stagnant. In 2024 he’s finally broken out in a big way at the plate.
Skubal leads Tigers to 7-2 win over Twins in final start before the trade deadline
DETROIT (AP) — Tarik Skubal gave up five hits and two runs in seven strong innings in his last start before the trade deadline and the Detroit Tigers rallied to beat the Minnesota Twins 7-2 on Saturday night. Javier Báez homered for the third straight game and Colt Keith had a home run and a triple for three RBIs. Báez had only homered once this season before his current streak and three of his four home runs this year have come against the Twins. Skubal (12-3) allowed three hits, including a two-run homer, in the first inning, but held the Twins to two singles over the next six. He struck out eight and walked two. “It was a bloop and a blast, and that happens in this game,” he said. “My command was really bad for the first 2-3 innings, but I kept attacking guys, knowing I would eventually find it. That’s what happened.”
