The Detroit Tigers dove head-on into a rebuild in 2017. Seeing Alex Avila, Justin Wilson, J.D Martinez, Justin Upton and franchise icon Justin Verlander all traded during the season will make 2017 a year to forget for many Tigers fans.
However, just like with any season, there were memorable moments.
Here at Motor City Bengals, we want to take this Throwback Thursday opportunity to highlight the five most unforgettable moments from the 2017 season.
The Tigers finished with a 64-98 record, but there was plenty of excitement during the season. Getting to see up-and-coming prospects show off their skills, seeing old favorites do what they do best, and even seeing a utility player do something that had not been done since 2000.
