I am super excited to see who the Tigers protect this off-season in the upcoming Rule 5 draft!!

  3. I’ve not been following the minors closely but would Liranzo be ready to back up Dingler next year?

  4. Valencia is intriguing, didn’t really hit his stride until Erie. Spent 50 games at Toledo, and hit .319, 13 HR, and 1.027 OPS.

    Strangely enough, the more difficult the competition, the better he gets.

    Petit is probably MLB ready. His size makes me laugh, because the delivery doesn’t line up for a 6’8″, 300lbs pitcher.

    Lee is probably not safe to leave out there. Liranzo didn’t do much to warrant MLB level competition, not sure if he’s going to be protected.

    Pacheco was the most consistent bat at WM all year, but is he worth holding a roster spot?

    Miller and Rodriguez played well, but super small sample sizes at lower levels.

  5. Last time I checked, Tigers have 7 slots free on 40 man.

    And Moises is still in A ball so not a big chance of him getting drafted.  Miller has been injured most of the year and just got pulled from AFL to try to address his injury again.
