The Detroit Tigers are red hot! They’ve won 10 of their last 14 games and they took a series from the First Place Dodgers over the weekend. The team is really fun to watch lately especially with how they won on Saturday afternoon. However there were also some truly debatable issues that took place at the ball park over the weekend as well. Why did Detroit manager AJ Hinch pitch to LA Superstar Shoehei Ohtani on Friday night which potentially ended up costing the Tigers a sweep of the Dodgers? Also, what was the fan that caught Ohtani’s home run ball on Saturday thinking? Jeff Riger brings you both debates on the latest brand new episode of The Daily Ticket.

Red Wings fans got some really good news yesterday as the team announced that they successfully extended Patrick Kane to a one-year deal. It was thought to be that Kane wanted multiple years however at the end of the day he came back to the Motor City for just one. Considering Kane is trying to win another Cup and is in his mid-30’s, you’d assume he was given some assurances before signing on with the Red Wings for another season. Because Kane chose Detroit, does it means that the Red Wings are choosing to go all in this offseason. So who’s next? Jeff Riger believes he knows the answer and it’s a huge name! It’s another jammed packed episode of The Daily Ticket.

There’s not a ton to talk about in the month of June when you make a living being in Sports Radio. Some have stopped watching the Tigers, many don’t care about the NHL or NBA Finals and football season seems way too far away. So, when it comes to topics, you do hear a lot of NFL related opinions. How good can the Lions be? Is it really Super Bowl or Bust? And, let’s not forget about predicting how many wins the local team will get? Jeff Riger filled in on the Costa and Jansen with Heather Ticket Morning show on Friday and argued with the other members of the show about the Lions win total. Jon Jansen and Tom Millikan predicted Detroit will have 14 wins while Riger said 10. And, then things got really saucy when somebody predicted the Green Bay packers to be NFC North Champions. Listen to things go off the rails on the latest episode of The Daily Ticket.
