The offseason has been underway for five weeks already, and there has been near radio silence from the Detroit Tigers. This is the way Scott Harris likes it, and with good reason. On the other hand, the lack of rumors and signs of interest in the free agent market means that the few which have
The Detroit Tigers are one week away from the winter meetings in Dallas. Evan and Mark evaluate right-handed hitters for the Tigers to acquire in free agency and trade this offseason, including new information about free-agent infielder Ha-Seong Kim.

On Sunday, MLB Pipeline named shortstop Kevin McGonigle and starting pitcher Jaden Hamm as the Detroit Tigers’ Prospects of the Year. Both had outstanding breakout campaigns in their first full seasons of pro ball. They’re very worthy selections. Even better from the Tigers’ perspective, there are very good arguments for a whole handful of other
A year ago, we provided one Rookie of the Year candidate for every team. How’d we do? We nailed the NL top rookie (Paul Skenes) and also picked out two others who received votes (Jackson Chourio and Mason Miller). That’s a good enough success rate to try the whole exercise again. We discussed who we
The Detroit Tigers need reinforcements for their starting rotation. Long-time Los Angeles Dodgers ace Walker Buehler is looking for a team to help him get back to form and earn the big free agent deal he was denied by injury. While Buehler has had more success in his career to date, it’s not a dissimilar
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Let’s dive into some questions to go with the leftovers … This actually happened in 2024, with Kristian Campbell going from not making our Top 100 Prospects or Red Sox Top 30 lists at the start of the year to ending it at No. 10. We don’t see
There’s nothing quite like hot stove season, where the rumors are running wild and it’s very up in the air what teams will look like next year. While the Tigers seem to be heavily focused on building up young talent rather than signing expensive veterans, there are certainly places that the team could help themselves
The Tigers have signed right-hander Ricky Vanasco to a minor league deal, according to his transactions tracker at MLB.com. The Full Circle Sports Management client has been assigned to Triple-A Toledo for now but will presumably receive an invite to major league spring training.

Of all the top free agents available this offseason, long-time Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman is one of the few that really makes sense for the Detroit Tigers. This is close to an ideal fit for them right now in terms of the player. Whether Bregman’s eventual contract fits the Tigers’ long-term plans is
Happy Monday, everyone. The past week was a busy on in the baseball world. For some (the big award winners) it was a great week. For others (the Rays and their fans) it wasn’t so ideal. We won’t dwell too much on the preamble, as there’s a lot to dig into, so let’s just dive
