While the depth in positional prospects remains somewhat bleak within the Tigers’ farm system, the depth in pitching is far more impressive. Beyond their top shelf arms like Casey Mize and Matt Manning, there are plenty of solid starting pitching prospects, and several potential relief arms. On a third tier below them, an interested fan can take their pick of a host of raw talents and older command-and-control guys, and rank them according to personal preference.
No matter what anyone says, it’s a crapshoot when you get this far down the list of even a deep farm system.
