Detroit Tigers Owner Chris Illitch & GM Scott Harris needs to build a good young team around Riley Greene, Spencer Torkelson, & Kerry Carpenter in the upcoming years ahead. Ways to go yet still to come. Nucleus is not there yet. Working on that one too. Want to build that young nucleus around. Lots of injuries in the Minor Leagues. Lots of them are coming back from there injuries. Had a good 2023 MLB Draft a month ago. Got a good OF Max Clark out of HS in Indiana a month ago. Good Hitter & Fielder at CF. Sign those 3 guys to big deal contract for this organization. They are a good part of this organization. 13th best Farm System right now in the MLB. Lots of prospects have the potential to be something special for the Old English D. Lots of work to do out there anyways. Still gotta work at this game. Keep developing those young players in the Farm System. Figure out good ideas going to forward to the future. Unknown names you haven’t heard of in the last few years. Building on that part now at Comerica Park in Detroit. Not satisfied at all period. Keep improving each & every week…… Go from there on out.
