Detroit Tigers 2019 MLB Draft Riley Greene 1st Round

A DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD?
Totally Tigers
 
PROMISE, PRAISE AND PRAYER.
Totally Tigers

We’re going to combine a couple topics routinely covered here at Totally Tigers because they really are all connected to each other. It’s because all 3 can help explain the success or lack thereof when it comes to some Tigers’ performance.
On Tuesday, we covered the history of Detroit’s first round draft picks and how that honor was no guarantee of success. In fact, potentially not offering those players any advantage at all in their development.
We’re also going to return to the topic of the new player development system that started to be implemented back in 2022 and more fully last year.
Lastly, we’ll add what to expect from the young players when they get promoted and the timeline needed as they adjust to the major league level.
For purposes of this discussion, our conversation is going to center around 3 players – Riley Greene, Wenceel Perez and Spencer Torkelson. Three players with 3 very different development and progression experiences.

After the departure of Miguel Cabrera, the Detroit Tigers were looking for the newest face of the franchise, and they found one in outfielder Riley Greene.
