I will be surprised if the Tigers let him pitch anywhere after they sign him.
Maybe they send him to Lakeland, warm weather to study/advise on mechanics this summer or next February/March.

It's a bit weird seeing this kid when I remember seeing him as a little boy. I remember him at an all star game he attended with his Dad and presser once or twice.



I like the fact he has spent a few years in college so hopefully he gets brought up quickly.

he sounds like an arrogant prick. Like father like son

That's what I gather as well. But if he can play like him I might look past that.

I agree 100%. He's 6'0" and 185 lb second basemen with pop in his bat. I don't know how his defense is but I'm thinking Ian Kinsler :clap:

Defense isn't all that great, but can probably be improved. I like the bat, arrogant prick and all. Like father like son. Hope he signs and moves fast.

I generally think the defense you have at a young age is pretty much what you have.

If you want to know about the Tigers Minor league pitchers, and problems with who they draft, invest some time in listening to this Tigers minor league Podcast. Al Avila draft era, type of position players they unfortunately draft.
Some garble with this new podcast, but Mark Gorosh gives a good critique.
