The Detroit Tigers are sending eight prospects to the Arizona Fall League, including one pitcher — 24-year-old left-hander Joey Wentz — who is finishing the regular season in the major leagues.
The eight will compete for the Salt Rivers Rafters: Wentz, right-hander Jack Anderson, left-hander Andrew Magno, right-hander Tyler Mattison, catcher Dillon Dingler, infielder Colt Keith, infielder Gage Workman and outfielder Parker Meadows.
"It's just the process of innings," said Wentz, who has thrown 70u2154 innings this season in the minors and majors combined.
