In 2022 the Detroit Tigers have the 12th selection in the draft. This is the lowest they’ve selected since taking Alex Faedo in 2017. In between that draft and now, they’ve been right up at the top of drafts, which has helped to bring in plenty of high-end talent. Thanks to a fun year in 2021, there is a new challenge at hand in regards to the MLB Draft this season.

First round pitchers have been kind to the Tigers irecently with names like Matt Manning and Casey Mize.
