In another lost season, it feels a bit precious to say the Tigers have had a rough week, but it’s hard to describe it any other way. The trade deadline passed with just a whimper of defeat from the front office. Tarik Skubal wisely chose to inform the team that his arm was feeling excessive fatigue after his start on Monday, but it’s hard to put a trip to the injured list in the plus column. Miguel Cabrera’s knees are shot after a few months of work and once again his presence on the roster is rapidly becoming a problem after a halfway decent first half.
