With the MLB draft almost upon us, all eyes are on the Detroit Tigers, who secured the first overall pick for the second time in three years. And, just as it was in 2018, their goal remains to pick the biggest talent.
There has been plenty of talk about who they will draft, with names such as Spencer Torkelson, Austin Martin and others being linked to the Tigers.
Detroit, just like many other teams, has had to prepare for this year’s unique draft in a different way than before. Scouts lost months of visiting schools and watching prospects, and college and high school players didn’t get to show off their true potential in such a short amount of time.
