1. Detroit Tigers

Even with Miguel Cabrera declining, the Tigers future seems to be the brightest of them all. With one of the top farm systems in baseball right now, the Tigers have prospects who are expected to arrive in the big leagues soon, while some have already.

This past season, Tigers fans were treated to the arrival of top pitching prospects Casey Mize and Tarik Skubal. On top of Mize and Skubal, Alex Fadeo and Matt Manning are both expected to join the rookies in Detroit this upcoming season. Overall, the Tigers pitching staff is coming together and looks to be built to last.

On the other side of the ball, the Tigers have two top prospects who are as exciting as they come. Riley Greene, the Tigers 2019 first-round pick, received a lot of attention during Summer Camp 2020 especially for his Home Run robbery of first baseman C.J Cron.

This year’s 2020 No. 1 overall pick, Spencer Torkleson is also coming together just fine. After leaving Arizona State University, where he broke Barry Bonds’ freshman home run record.

With these young prospects leading the way, on top of the young players already in the majors right now, the Tigers future is the brightest spot in Detroit sports.

At the end of the day, all bad things must come to an end and the Tigers should be the first ones to make Detroit sport fan believe that. The sun will rise on Detroit sports once again, it’s just a matter of when.

Thon Maker returning is a good option for the Detroit Pistons. dark. Next
