Detroit Tigers 2023 MLB Draft Board
Detroit Tigers 2023 MLB Draft Board
Detroit Tigers fans should bookmark this article as it will be updated throughout the spring and summer leading up to the 2023 MLB Draft. This is the one-stop shop for 2023 MLB Draft Coverage on the MCB site.
This will serve as the Detroit Tigers' very own edition of the draft board, meaning we're not going to go 100 prospects or 200 prospects deep with players that will never end up in Detroit, but rather a draft board of players we provide reports on, as well as, players the Tigers faithful should be on the lookout for Detroit to select this summer.
The Detroit Tigers have the third overall in the 2023 MLB Draft and will select again near the end of Day 1 of the event, during the Competitive Balance Round A at pick no. 37, giving them two big chances to add top-tier talents. This will be the first draft under Scott Harris and his new regime. Newly hired scouting director Mark Conner has a big task at hand with his team of scouts and front-office executives that will try to piece together a good crop of talent to add to the farm system.
The Tigers need to hit big in this year's draft, finding ways to maximize their draft picks on players who will provide value and have big league upside. Whether they stick in Detroit or become capital to use in trades, they need an influx of talent this year.
As is the case every year, there are a ton of talented ballplayers out there to choose from, but which ones stand out the most? For that, we're going to create the Tigers' big board of players to consider, not just at third overall or at 37th overall, but players they may be able to grab later on and find value in. Without further adieu, let's dive into it!
