July has finally arrived with the Detroit Tigers stumbling their way into the heart of the summer months. After a disappointing June that saw the team go 5-20 over thirty days, the Tigers approach the All Star Game with one participant slated — Shane Greene — who represents the team’s token American League All-Star Game delegate thanks to his strong season at the back of the bullpen.
Having dropped their final game of the month on Sunday to Max Scherzer and the Washington Nationals, the club still has not managed a single series win since taking two of three from the Baltimore Orioles on the road back at the end of May.
