The Tigers have moved out of the days when Riley Greene and Spencer Torkelson topped their prospect rankings, just as they graduated Casey Mize, Tarik Skubal and Matt Manning from prospect status a year before.

The Detroit Tigers finally snapped their losing streak which extended to eight games before prevailing over the Cleveland Guardians in the nightcap of a Monday doubleheader.

After seven seasons and a complete teardown, the Detroit Tigers and owner Chris Illitch decided to move on from their GM Al Avila. Avila was tasked with a tough assignment–offload pricey veterans and endure losing in hopes that their homegrown talent would eventually star in the major leagues.
The High-A West Michigan Whitecaps had quite a week. On August 5, the Tigers’ 2022 first-round draft pick Jace Jung and fellow prospect Izaac Pacheco were added to the roster and put up an 11-run offensive showing against the Lansing Lugnuts. Jung’s night ended with an opposite-field hit, but it was Pacheco who captured the
22-year-old Wenceel Perez isn’t interested in climbing up the prospect rankings. His focus is on making it to Detroit, and with the way he’s playing in Erie, that won’t be long.
