For the first month of the Detroit Tigers season it seemed like minor-league action would help distract from the brutal MLB product. But the Tigers have been decent in May! They’re 7-7 on the month and their run differential is just -8, a far cry from the ugly -58 we saw in April.
Sadly, those offensive struggles seem to have trickled down to the minors. Perhaps the Detroit Tigers and their affiliates all just need a month to get on track.
But there were still plenty of noteworthy performances down on the farm last week.
