The Detroit Tigers continue to play winning baseball coming out of the All-Star break, taking two of three games against the Blue Jays in Toronto. Mark and Evan discuss the Tarik Skubal and Riley Greene at the All-Star Game, the upcoming trade deadline headlined by Jack Flaherty and the lack of starting pitchers in the Tigers' rotation after more pitching injuries. Is top prospect Jackson Jobe — currently in Double-A Erie — the solution to the shortage? After that, Mark and Evan chat about manager Jim Leyland's induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame, along with the promotions of prospects Max Clark and Kevin McGonigle to High-A West Michigan. To wrap up, the guys break down an important stretch of games against American League Central rivals.

Is Jackson Jobe the solution to shortage of starting pitchers in Detroit Tigers' rotation?

The Detroit Tigers selected high school shortstop Bryce Rainer with the No. 11 overall pick in the 2024 MLB draft, followed by high school pitchers Owen Hall and Ethan Schiefelbein at Nos. 49 and 72, respectively. Tyler Jennings, the director of draft content at Prospects Live, joins the podcast to share his evaluation of the three players. After that, Mark and Evan discuss the Tigers' red-hot offense entering the All-Star break and how president of baseball operations Scott Harris should approach the July 30 trade deadline. They also take a look at Jack Flaherty's return from his back injury and Kenta Maeda's transition to the bullpen. To wrap up, Mark and Evan share what stands out about the way the Tigers have approached the MLB draft with Harris, assistant general manager Rob Metzler and scouting director Mark Conner running the show in the last two drafts.

Previewing 2024 MLB Draft for Detroit Tigers, breaking down All-Star success from Tarik Skubal, Riley Greene

Mark and Evan break down another week of losing from the Detroit Tigers, then examine the six players added by president of baseball operations Scott Harris in the offseason, including Jack Flaherty for $14 million and Mark Canha for $11.5 million. After that, Mike Ferrin, co-host of MLB Network Radio's "Power Alley," joins the podcast.
