The Detroit Tigers are trying to sort out their pitching staff in spring training and they made a bit of a surprising decision by sending former top prospect Ty Madden to minor league camp. It feels like a bit of a premature decision and takes away a chance for Madden to prove himself a bit more.
The 26-year-old was drafted back in 2021 by the Tigers. He was thought of as an arm with a lot of promise and he made his big league debut with the team in 2024, but injuries have prevented him from progressing along the trajectory he would have liked.
