The Detroit Tigers finished 76-86 in 2026, facing major headwinds including a lawsuit from Athletics' Zack Gelof over a Comerica Park fence and the disruptive impact of the new automated ball-strike system, which overturned 54% of challenges. This episode breaks down how the ABS favors pitchers and catchers, forcing lineup adjustments for hitters like Spencer Torkelson and Riley Greene. We analyze the pitching staff, predicting Jackson Jobe will emerge as the primary ace alongside Jack Flaherty in 2027, while discussing potential trades for Gleyber Torres and bullpen decisions involving Kenley Jansen and Kyle Finnegan. Key topics include the playoff push failure, the Pirates' winning season, and the financial implications of Skubal's free agency.

In this episode: Robot Umpires & The Gelof Lawsuit · Pitching Rotation & Bullpen Strategy · Division Rivals & 2027 Outlook.
