Tigers Set Final Rotation Around Verlander’s Last Start

The Detroit Tigers starting rotation for the final series of the 2026 season is set. Detroit is off Thursday after closing out its series against the Washington Nationals, then finishes the year with three games at Comerica Park against the Pittsburgh Pirates beginning Friday, Sept. 25.

With the Tigers eliminated from the playoff race on Sept. 20, they hope they can end the 2026 MLB season on a good note. Many fans are wondering what the starting rotation is going to look like for the final weekend series against the Pirates.
