Detroit Tigers Top 20 Prospects

By Chris Brown

Detroit Tigers No. 13 Prospect – Alex Faedo
"In addition to his solid slider, Faedo has demonstrated strong command as a professional. He has thrown approximately 66% of his pitches for strikes which indicates an ability to consistently be around the strike zone. During the 2019 season, his K/BB ratio was greater than 5 to 1 which is excellent for any pitcher, at any level. Even in 2018 when he wasn’t quite as sharp, he struck out over 3 times as many hitters as he walked."
