Tigers Shock Draft With Flukey Pick | MLB News
Description
The Detroit Tigers stunned the baseball world by drafting right-hander Cameron Flukey at 22—breaking from their recent high school position-player focus. Flukey, a top-15 talent who missed part of the season with a rib stress fracture, brings elite stuff: a 95+ mph fastball and a dominant strikeout rate (11+ K/9). Though his 2024 stats dipped from his College World Series run, his raw potential and the Tigers’ pitching depth needs make this a bold, strategic move. With Scott Harris signaling a new era in pitching development, even star pitcher Tarik Skubal backed the pick. This could be the start of a new Tigers’ pitching revolution.
