A historically bad offense is still in rough shape

The 2022 Detroit Tigers offense was terrible, but you know that already. They were at the bottom of the league in most offensive categories and even historically bad in a few key stats. A club that was looking to build off their relative success in 2021 and position themselves for future contention finished nearly 20 games worse in 2022.

Such miserable results ultimately led to sweeping changes in the Tiger’s front office. When the new President of Baseball Operations, Scott Harris, laid out his plan for the club, he emphasized establishing a strong identity as an offense based on hitters that control the strike zone.
