The baseball world unfortunately lost a number of influential people in 2020. Let’s remember them, now.

The Detroit Tigers social media team couldn’t help but throw some shade towards fans of the New York Yankees. When it comes to fanbases, none is more virtually hated on than the New York Yankees.

The Houston Astros are debating the unthinkable, and might trade away Carlos Correa.

The Chicago Cubs added an interesting piece to their lineup down to the wire at the trade deadline, getting Nick Castellanos from the Tigers. The Chicago Cubs seemed set to hit the stretch run as currently constructed. But down to the wire at the 4 p.m. ET trade deadline on Wednesday, according to Ken Rosenthal
The Detroit Tigers have struggled to reset and rebuild, but two opportunities to accelerate that effort were apparently turned down. At 32-75 entering Monday, the Detroit Tigers are headed for 100 losses after losing 98 games in both 2017 and 2018. They were a trade deadline seller again this year, parting with Nick Castellanos and
Nick Castellanos vented some frustration about Comerica Park on Sunday, and thus basically asked the Detroit Tigers to trade him. As part of his 3-for-5 day, Nick Castellanos hit a walk-off home run on Sunday to give the Detroit Tigers a win over the Toronto Blue Jays. The Tigers are still just 13-34 at home
Nick Castellanos is in the final year of his contract, and least in regard to a extension with Tigers he seems to think it matters what position he plays.

On Wednesday night against the Boston Red Sox, Miguel Cabrera got the 2,700th hit of his career. He’s the 69th player in MLB history to reach that hit plateau, and
Miguel Cabrera will miss the rest of the season with a ruptured bicep tendon, and here are five replacements options off the waiver wire in your fantasy baseball league.

The Detroit Tigers are off to a surprising start, but even with questions about the sustainability of it these five prospects could arrive this season.
