Prior to the Detroit Tigers' selection of Derek Hill as their number one man in the 2014 MLB amateur draft, they had not chosen an outfielder as their top pick since nabbing Brandon Hamilton (who?) in 2007. Now, they're on a roll. For the second consecutive year, Detroit carried the same formula by buying stock in University of Tennessee junior outfielder Christin Stewart.
In his three years with the Volunteers program, the 6'0, 205 pound concrete lefty took no time to solidify himself as a force at the plate, going 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in his freshman debut with the Vols.
