They aren't. But in case you're new to baseball sometimes the worse teams win.

Detroit Tigers' Spencer Torkelson is riding that offensive roller coaster again. After a promising return from AAA in August in which he hit .308/.368/.577/.945, his September stats so far are .100/.182/.250/.432.

Friday night, he struck out 4x. His SO rate is now approaching 50%. Of greater concern is his inability to deliver hits with RISP. That stat sits at .179. He's got 3 more weeks to make his case. The Tigers aren't going to send him down to Toledo again in 2025.

Tigers Minor Leaguers with 20+ stolen bases, by year:
2014 - 6
2015 - 5
2016 - 6
2017 - 4
2018 - 8
2019 - 8
2021 - 3
2022 - 3
2023 - 3
2024 - 17

Flying Tigers won four straight over Fort Myers and now have a Florida State League playoff spot. They'll join Erie as the two affiliates playing in their respective postseasons. Their 80-48 record is second best among all three Single-A level leagues.
