#4: The Prospects

Over the years, the Detroit Tigers have been known for having a weak farm system. But, this has changed. With the farm system reboot, the team is loaded with young players who show some serious promise. They are working hard to make their way to the Big League. They are hungry for success and it shows in their heart and hustle.

Players like JaCoby Jones and Christin Stewart are showing they can swing a bat. Joe Jimenez clearly wants to pitch at Comerica Park. With these exciting players making their way up the Minor League ladders, the Tigers have some young players to look forward to seeing soon.
