Roberto Campos, OF, Tigers: The Detroit organization popped for a hefty $3MM to secure the services of the Cuban outfielder, per Badler (via Twitter). Campos defected in somewhat dramatic fashion several years ago at just 13 years of age. He wasn?t listed among the best prospects, but Chris McCosky of the Detroit News indicates on Twitter that the Tigers like his bat quite a bit.

Small blurb from PitcherList about High A ball

https://www.pitcherlist.com/winds-of-change-high-a-prospect-monthly-roundup/

After pitching solely out of the pen in 2018, Tarik Skubal (DET) is finding his groove as a starter this season, posting a stellar 30.3% K-rate across 80.1 innings. His 97 Ks lead the Florida State League, thanks to a solid fastball that can touch 95, complimented by a curve, slider and developing change-up. The 6-foot-3 lefty should shoot up the Tigers’ prospect charts as he was a relatively forgotten man after returning from Tommy John surgery last year.

2019 MLB Draft TigsTown's Detroit Tigers Draft Central.

July 4 Update: The Tigers have now signed 33 of their 40 selections, including everyone selected in the top ten rounds, and currently are $46K under their allotted bonus pool, as they signed 8th rounder Jack Kenley under his allotted bonus amount. Of the seven unsigned picks, four are in the teens and 20's, including 11th rounder John McMillon and 14th rounder Ted Stuka.

If any of the remaining sign for more than $125K, each dollar over would go against the pool, but the Tigers could still go over up to 5% of their $10.5M bonus pool and only have to pay a fine, as opposed to facing draft pick penalties.
