In a season where all three of No. 1 prospect Kevin McGonigle, No. 2 Max Clark, and No. 4 Josue Briceño have all proven more than enough to show they were ready for the jump from High-A West Michigan, the Tigers have made a clear statement: this trio is the future of the franchise. In just 36 games for the Whitecaps, he has commanded the spotlight by slashing .372/.462/.648 with seven home runs and 39 RBI while collecting 54 hits and striking out just 19 times. Briceño has been the most powerful, however that does not mean he's just a boom or bust slugger either. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/tigers/news/tigers-promotin... |
