2018 MLB draft profile: OF Parker Meadows is the Tigers’ newest prospect

In their latest mock draft, the fine folks at FanGraphs project the Detroit Tigers will use their No. 1 overall pick on... righthander Casey Mize. The top pick in this year’s draft seems to be a foregone conclusion at this point, with everyone predicting that Mize will don a Tigers uniform (or switch Tigers uniforms, if you will) on June 4.

While the pick itself is nothing new, some of the information Eric Longenhagen and Kiley McDaniel provided is. According to FanGraphs, Tigers general manager Al Avila has personally scouted a number of players, including Georgia high school outfielder Parker Meadows.
