Detroit Tigers Newsletter: Who is to blame for this June swoon of 9 straight losses?

It wasn’t long after the Detroit Tigers’ final at-bat Sunday — no more than 30 minutes, maybe — when Tigers catcher Eric Haase summed up June so far.

“It all sucks, you know, it’s all losing, doesn’t really matter at the end of the year, we’re losing by 10 or one,” Haase told the reporters gathered around his cubby in the Comerica Park clubhouse.

And indeed, while the Tigers haven’t yet lost by 10 over their first nine games of the month, it has all been losing: By three, one, four, five, one, one, five, five and, finally on Sunday, by two runs in a disheartening bullpen blowup that dropped the Tigers to 26-37, 11 games under .
