Joe Coleman, a lanky right-hander who won 142 games in 15 major league seasons and was an All-Star in 1972 with Detroit, has died.

The streaking Toronto Blue Jays have moved to the top of the American League East, but adding a starting pitcher would help their chances

The pitcher appeared for seven different teams in a 15-year career, and is part of the first three-generation family of pitchers in MLB history.

DETROIT – The Detroit Tigers announced Thursday that former All-Star pitcher Joe Coleman has died at the age of 78. “We are saddened by the passing of former Tigers pitcher Joe Coleman, and share our condolences with his family and loved ones,” the team posted on X.

Former Toronto Blue Jays GM Pat Gillick says that the team missed out on the chance to acquire Randy Johnson. Hall of Fame pitcher Randy Johnson left his mark in various locales. He pitched for the Montreal Expos, Houston Astros, Seattle Mariners, Arizona Diamondbacks, New York Yankees, and San Francisco Giants.

Featured in this week’s MLB Power Rankings, the streaking Blue Jays sweep the Yankees and take over the AL East, Brandon Woodruff has a triumphant return to the majors, the Mariners’ pitching staff is historically-stingy, Eury Pérez provides hope for the Marlins, and the Nationals hit the reset button.

The Tigers know as well as anyone that the first round of the MLB playoffs are dangerous. They went to Houston and shocked the Astros last year -- and all it took was one great Tarik Skubal start and a timely hit from Andy Ibanez.

As the trade deadline approaches, there's a clear trend when it comes to evaluating some of the team's most sensible targets.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene — an All-Star Game reserve in 2024 — has positioned himself to make the All-Star Game as a starter in 2025.
