Detroit Tigers top 20 prospects following 2017 MLB Draft

#20 Relief pitcher Adam Ravenelle

Current minor league affiliate: Double-A Erie SeaWolves

Another member of Erie’s pitching staff, Ravenelle was also in camp with the Detroit Tigers in Spring Training this season.

The hard-throwing right-hander can flirt with triple digits on the radar gun while also mixing in a slider and a changeup. He’s punched out 22 in 22.2 frames for the SeaWolves, but does have 11 walks over the same span.

Ravenelle’s ERA and WHIP check in at 3.97 and 1.32 respectively.

#19 Starting pitcher Myles Jaye

Current minor league affiliate: Double-A Erie SeaWolves

Last year the Detroit Tigers flipped Bryan Holaday to the Texas Rangers for Jaye and Bobby Wilson before sending Wilson back to Texas for Chad Bell.

It’s safe to say the deal has worked out for Detroit, as Holaday is back in the organization and Bell has contributed at the Major League level this season.

Jaye could join him in the near future.

The 25-year-old starter has a 3.90 ERA, a 1.373 WHIP and nine strikeouts per nine frames in 67 innings for the SeaWolves.

#18 Infielder Hector Martinez

Current minor league affiliate: Short-season Single-A Connecticut Tigers

A middle infielder, Martinez flashed plenty of potential in the Dominican Summer League in 2014 and 2015 before making his debut stateside with one of Detroit’s Gulf Coast League teams last season.

In 42 games, the 20-year-old hit .310 with a .367 on-base percentage, a .352 slugging percentage and a .719 OPS. He also chipped in with 17 runs scored, 10 RBI, eight walks, seven stolen bases, four doubles and a triple.

Martinez has enjoyed a solid start at Connecticut in the New York-Pennsylvania League, where the competition is on average a year older than him.

The infielder has notched six hits, four runs scored, four RBI, a home run and a stolen base and a .733 OPS in 23 plate appearances.
