Exactly what the Tigers have in a mammoth man named Reynaldo Rivera is for some baseball Nostradamus to reveal.
They might have drafted in last June’s second round a Herculean left-handed hitter who will bash scads of home runs if and when he cracks a big-league lineup in a few years.
Or, of course, they might have grabbed a contemporary version of Steven Moya, in which case Rivera can begin checking on airfare to Japan.
Either could be Rivera’s fate as he puts together his first full season of professional baseball at Single A West Michigan.
