Let me start by saying I'm no scout so just based on the handful of games I've seen he is rough out there defensively. More passed balls than I would like to see and I would say his arm is average so he's not Dingler out there but also not not playable. From my very amateur eyes it looks like it's possibly a transfer issue, getting the ball from his mitt to his throwing hand.

Ended up finishing the night 4-4 a triple shy of the cycle.

Honestly, if you look at the control problems, many seem to be Ump-related. Not sure if it is movement related but lots of should be strikes seem to be called balls by these AA Umps.

Or Taking a Holliday (Ethan)

Well, we have a much better shot at the #1 pick as both the A's and White Sox are ineligible for it this year after being in the top 10 for 3 years.

The dollar amounts for each farm system come from projecting what each is expected to do, using historical examples. With that, it's pretty easy to project how much they'll be paid in their six-plus cost-controlled years for that projected performance, adjust for time value of money/performance, apply the price teams pay per win on the free agent market for how much that performance is worth and poof: each player has a dollar value. Then, you simply add up the values for each prospect and have the surplus value of the whole farm system.

If you are like me and wondering where are the draft picks and also why haven't we seen any graduations from the FCL to the FSL Henning has the info here. That being said Nomar Fana was moved up to Lakeland today. The Florida Complex League, the brooder coop where first-year players compete, closed last week with the Tigers winning the FCL championship in a sweep of the FCL Pirates. It brought an end to a league schedule where first-year recruits play in late-morning, 100-degree temps. Players weren’t exactly complaining when the sweat factory shut down. But, ah, the Bridge League has since arrived. The Tigers are having a kind of overtime FCL. More accurately, it’s a program along the lines of extended spring training, which is where young players compete if they’re not on Single-A, Double-A, or Triple-A rosters as they await the FCL season’s start in May. The Tigers, Pirates, Yankees, Blue Jays, and Phillies — all within an hour or so bus ride — are part of this innovative conference that gives the fresh kids a chance to play in about 20 games against competitive pitching a couple of months or more after their college or prep schedules ended. The drafted players will merge with the just-graduated FCL players to fill lineups for Tigers FCL manager Salvador Paniagua.

https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/10-significant-top-100-prospects-risers-fallers-so-far-in-2024/ Jobe and McGonigle make this list as risers. Jackson Jobe, RHP, Tigers A hamstring injury sidelined Jackson Jobe for nearly two months at Double-A Erie and had limited him to just 10 starts through the end of July. But when 22-year-old righthander has been healthy, he has offered plenty of evidence to support his case as the best pitching prospect in the minor leagues. Jobe throws four pitches that all grade as average or better, topped by a plus 96-98 mph fastball and a double-plus low-80s slider. A low-90s cutter he added this season has been a separator. He throws the pitch for strikes, especially called ones when batters are on high alert for his devastating fastball or slider. At the end of July, opposing batters had managed to hit just .132/.245/.182 versus Jobe. When Jobe is on, he’s unhittable. Case in point: He threw the first six innings of a combined no-hitter for Erie in mid July. With three potential plus pitches and a disrupting cutter in his repertoire, Jobe has the type of potential to one day front the Tigers’ rotation. —JJ Cooper Kevin McGonigle, SS, Tigers Kevin McGonigle hits the ball hard. He hits the ball often. He stays within his strike zone. The 19-year-old, lefthanded-hitting Tigers shortstop had almost as many extra-base hits as strikeouts at Low-A Lakeland in his first full pro season. McGonigle earned a promotion to High-A West Michigan in late July, roughly a year after he was ranked as the top pure hitter among high schoolers in a loaded 2023 draft class. The supplemental first-rounder from the Philadelphia area hit .326 with 35 walks and 24 strikeouts in the Florida State League. As he did in high school, McGonigle looked comfortable against righthanders and left, velocity and offspeed, young and old. While a potential plus bat is the draw, McGonigle has a chance for near-average or possibly average power and speed. Scouts rave about his baseball IQ. He’s not the rangiest or most explosive defender, but he makes routine plays at shortstop and is more than capable at second base. Barrel accuracy and strike-zone discipline are McGonigle’s calling cards, making him the Tigers’ potential leadoff hitter of the future. —Matt Eddy

Kiley McDaniel puts the farm at #6 overall after the draft and trade deadline. 6. Detroit Tigers -- $272 million Current top prospect: Jackson Jobe, RHP Preseason ranking: 3rd, $318 million What has happened since: The Tigers have fallen a bit due to graduations from Colt Keith and Parker Meadows, but they have the talent to jump back into the top three in short order. They added Bryce Rainer in the draft, who goes straight into the middle of the Top 100 and could be a top-10 overall prospect at some point. My pick to click in the 2023 draft, Kevin McGonigle, has done just that, hitting his way to High-A as a teenager with more walks than strikeouts while showing the potential to shoot up the Top 100 when he's in the upper levels. It goes without saying that Max Clark could also be a top-10 prospect in the game in the near future. Adding Thayron Liranzo and Trey Sweeney in the Jack Flaherty deal and Ethan Schiefelbein in the second round of the draft give them another set of players I expect will move up my list in the coming year.
