Tigers Top Minor League Prospects

I just recently was over at the great Baseball Prospectus website and the annual top prospects list has been released for the Tigers.


Tigers Top Prospects List

• My thoughts on the list are pretty much what expected. The Tigers farm system has a few bright spots but then it dims quickly.

• I love the way BP sums the farm system up into 20 words or less and they really hit the nail on the head when saying, "Jacob Turner is great, Nick Castellanos might be, and then... man does it get bad quickly."

Well the once loaded farm system of the Tigers has been depleted a little through trades and also players moving up and maybe some lack of performance. It will really be exciting to see how Jacob Turner develops over the next few seasons, all reports say he could be a top notch pitcher someday.
