KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Akil Baddoo is a big leaguer with the Detroit Tigers again, roughly two months after the organization, citing his poor performance, demoted him to Triple-A Toledo. These days, Baddoo appears both determined and calm. He wants to be a difference maker, and he knows he can be, but the 23-year-old isn’t going to
Kansas City, Mo. — Turns out, all Akil Baddoo needed to do was trust that being Akil Baddoo was plenty good enough. He didn’t need to hit 400-foot home runs. He didn’t need to be the next Rickey Henderson or Kirby Puckett. Being the best version of himself is all the Tigers ever asked him to

Detroit — The Tigers like to draft high-end pitching, but this isn’t the best draft for that. There’s a talent-pool issue, and there are injury concerns with some of the upper-echelon guys. And all that might just be a blessing for Detroit, given all its offensive woes at the major-league level in 2022. ESPN MLB Draft
Five years after finally tearing down the Dave Dombrowski-built Detroit Tigers in the wake of Mike Ilitch’s passing, the club isn’t supposed to be a bottom feeder any longer.
