Were Detroit Tigers snubbed for 2025 MLB All-Star Game?
On “Days of Roar,” Evan Petzold — joined by Scott Bentley of “Locked On Tigers” — breaks down Detroit Tigers players in the 2025 MLB All-Star Game.
The Detroit Tigers will be looking to start a new winning streak on Friday when they host the Seattle Mariners at Comerica Park.
The Tigers enter the series coming off a loss to the Tampa Bay Rays, but before that, they had won five games in a row, including a sweep over their AL Central rivals, the Cleveland Guardians.
As they look to get back into the win column after the loss and the off day on Thursday, the Tigers will have the best man possible taking the mound.
Reigning Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal will be making his first start since being named to the American League All-Star team for the second straight season. It hasn’t been announced yet whether Skubal will be the starter for the American League, but he is certainly a strong candidate.
While watching Skubal take on the Mariners and MLB home run leader Cal Raleigh sounds like must-see TV, unless you have a subscription to Apple TV+, you won’t be able to watch the showdown.
