The Detroit Tigers are looking to find a stride in the second half of the 2026 season. Detroit is 7-3 over its last 10 as they look to crawl back in the postseason mix in a three-game series against the Chicago Cubs.
Heading into the series, the Tigers provided an update on starting pitcher Framber Valdez’s absence from the team. Valdez, 32, was away from the team over the past week and missed a scheduled start.
The starting pitcher was in the Dominican Republic for the death of his grandmother. He is back from bereavement leave and will start tomorrow.
“Framber said she helped raise him and was a very important person in his life. She loved baseball and was always his biggest fan,” Evan Woodberry of MLive Media Group reports.
