The excitement of the 2025 MLB trade deadline has come and gone, and now it is time for the Detroit Tigers to return to action with their newest reinforcements on the roster.
After a brutal stretch that bookended this summer’s All-Star break, AJ Hinch and Co. have since taken four straight games, including a series sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks at home this week. This weekend, they hit the road for a short yet challenging matchup with the Philadelphia Phillies.
The Phils have evenly split their last 10 games, having lost their previous road series at the Chicago White Sox, two games to one; however, they won a three-gamer against the New York Yankees in the Bronx just before that.
