The Detroit Tigers have gone cold at a deeply perilous time. They were swept at home by the Cleveland Guardians on Thursday, and have now lost six of their last seven. Is Detroit about to completely collapse down the stretch? It’s been a shocking week or two for a team that was viewed as the cream of the American League earlier in the season.
The remaining eight games won’t be easy for the Tigers as they look to get back on track. After a three-game home set against the Atlanta Braves (starting Friday), Detroit will travel to Cleveland for a three-game series against the Guardians.
