The Tigers continue to avoid prosperity, losing to Seattle after taking 5 of 8 from the White Sox and Twins to get back to the .500 mark. Detroit won’t contend for the wild card if it can’t take advantage of the weaker teams on the schedule.
Anyway, in recent years, the Tigers were recognized for having one of the worst farm systems in the game. That might be changing, if the standings in the minors mean anything.
Toledo is 64-38 and has the best record in the AAA International League; Erie is 53-48, good for the second-best mark in the Double-A Eastern League; Lakeland is the best team in the A Florida State League; West Michigan is above .500 in the Midwest League; and Oneonta is 19-12 in the short-season New York-Penn League.
With that much winning going on throughout the organization, you would have to think it should mean some good things for the Tigers in the future.
