American League Silver Slugger finalists were revealed on Thursday morning, and the Tigers had two deserving representatives in Riley Greene and Zach McKinstry. Greene's nomination was far from a shock after his 36-homer, 111-RBI season, but McKinstry's inclusion was a little shocking and the perfect exclamation point on an admirable season.
The Tigers were far from the most slug- or homer-happy team in 2025, but there are still arguments to be made for Detroit hitters who were overlooked. You could point to Gleyber Torres at second base, who had a pretty comparable season to finalist Brandon Lowe in everything but slugging.
