Detroit Tigers: Is the Farm System Bouncing Back?

From 2002 to 2015 the Detroit Tigers farm system was ravaged by Dave Dombrowski. Now, in the short time that he has been gone, it appears to be bouncing back. So much so that the Tigers organization is planning on adding another Gulf Coast team to fill with minor leaguers.

Unfortunately, the new Gulf Coast team will be a replacement for the shuttering Venezuelan Summer League, but the fact that the league was so successful shows that the Tigers farm system is on the up and up. Of course, it is impossible to completely refill a farm system in five short months.
