Detroit Tigers: Top 2010 Prospects

Something Old, Something New: The Rebuilt Tigers Farm

Few teams overhauled their young employees more thoroughly than the 2009 Tigers, who sent the very erudite Curtis Granderson to the East Coast while also shipping pitcher Edwin Jackson to Arizona. The Tigers added Daniel Schlereth, Max Scherzer and Austin Jackson in that monster deal: those players make up the richest part of Detroit's young wealth as a result. Home-grown pitchers Jake Turner and Casey Crosby, for their part, seem to be next in line to follow Rick Porcello to the Motor City.   

Casey Crosby is one of the fastest-rising prospects in baseball. Can the team that's already graduated Justin Verlander and Rick Porcello catch lightning in a bottle again?
