BA talks to scouts about the Future’s Game (sub. req) and Gorkys Hernandez got props for his speed: “He might be an 80 runner and covers good ground with good jumps and routes in center. He and Maybin are totally different with what they bring offensively
Lee updates on the Tigers Hall of Fame created at Motown Sports. This is a post I’ve been meaning to do, but Lee beat me to it. Check out who was inducted.

Former Tiger prospect Adam Pettyjohn is trying to get back to the majors. Neat story about a guy who wasn’t only battling for a job, but battling for his life.
