Niko Goodrum named Tigers Rookie of the Year

At the beginning of the 2018 Detroit Tigers season there was a giant question mark hanging in the air. Who would be the Tigers Rookie of the Year? There were many young prospects on the cusp of arriving in Detroit, and more young players that happened to have exceeded their rookie limits, making them ineligible. So we wondered who would join the ranks of players like Michael Fulmer and Nicholas Castellanos as the stand-out of the Tigers season?

On Tuesday, we got our answer, and it shouldn’t surprise anyone who watched the Tigers play this season.
