Detroit Tigers fans have seen few moves of note this offseason.
Outside of the signing of Alex Avila and the Cameron Maybin trade, the team have made relatively minor additions.
Despite just the one trade, the prospect acquired for Maybin has the upside to become an impact player—a player capable of making the trade much more significant.
That prospect would be Victor Alcantara.
Armed with a mid-90s fastball and a potentially potent slider, Alcantara came to Detroit as the sole return in the Maybin deal.
The 23-year-old recently completed the 2016 season at Double-A.
