From the moment Detroit Tigers fans set their heart on the first selection in the 2018 amateur draft, Florida ace Brady Singer and prep fireballer Ethan Hankins have received most of the attention. Both have seen their stock take a hit in recent days, however, leaving an opening at the top of the draft. Jeff Ellis at Scout.com seems to think that prep lefty Matthew Liberatore is poised to fill that vacancy. Ellis projected the Tigers will snag Liberatore with the first pick.
Like the Tigers' last top-10 pick, Matt Manning, prospect junkies could quickly get carried away when projecting Liberatore.
