The Detroit Tigers have had a quiet offseason after their successful 2024 season, signing Alex Cobb and Gleyber Torres. Torres, a two-time All-Star, brings a needed right-handed bat and plate discipline to the team. He will play second base, while Colt Keith shifts to first base, potentially leaving Spencer Torkelson without a clear role. The Tigers are hopeful Torkelson can earn a spot with a strong offseason and spring training. The Tigers are looking to add more right-handed power to their team, and they believe Torkelson has shown the ability to provide that in the past. However, Torkelson has not yet lived up to expectations as the No. 1 overall pick and there is a possibility that the team may be open to trading him. Despite his slow start in the MLB, Torkelson is still a talented hitter with power potential and four years of team control left. Several teams may be interested in acquiring him from the Tigers.
