Road to Detroit Podcast: Episode 1, Return of Riley Greene. 46 minutes.

Popular Road to Detroit podcast guest Riley Greene makes his return to the pod. Of course, you may know him best as the Tigers top prospect who is on the verge of making his major league debut. Plus, host Dan Hasty checks in on the best performers around the Tigers farm system.
 
The marlins acquired non-roster catcher Ryan Lavarnway in a trade with the Tigers. Lavarnway has spent the entire season with the Tigers? top affiliate in Toledo. The 34-year-old backstop has had a good showing with the Mud Hens, posting a .281/.385/.459 line through 174 plate appearances. He?s walked at an excellent 13.2% clip this year and generally has a strong upper minors track record.

A quintessential third catcher, Lavarnway got to the big leagues in ten of the eleven seasons between 2011-21 (2016 being the lone exception). Only twice has he exceeded 100 plate appearances, though, and he has not reached ten games in a season since 2015. He continues to bounce around the league as a valued depth option, spending time in 11 different organizations ? including a five-game stint with Miami two years ago.
