Looking at these numbers it just seems that the Tigers minor league staffs for player development leave a lot of room for improvement.

Using 60 AB as the threshold 52 CF are ranked in FG by WAR
#51 Vic "soft serve " Reyes -0.7 WAR
#52 JaCoby Jones -0.7 WAR
6 years into the regime of fuckery.

Its May 17th..(2nd best day of the year) and Detroit is struggling with what pitcher to promote after optioning Alex Lange..imagine what it will be like on July 15th.

The Detroit Tigers still have MLB's worst run differential by far at -69. The next closest team to them is -47. The best team in MLB sits at +61.

The Detroit Tigers currently rank #10 in stolen bases with 21, eclipsing their entire total for the 2020 season. Their success rate is just under 85%. All part of A. J. Hinch's philosophy of playing more aggressively.

Hitters are advised in advance of particular situations that may aid in stealing bases. Ultimately, it is up to them to take an extra base based upon the info they are given.

A far cry from when Brad Ausmus was managing. Rajai Davis was infamously benched when he successfully stole a base and didn't ask Brad first. A prolific base stealer with every other team, his numbers were significantly lower when he played for Detroit.

Totally Tigers
