Get Startedthe Tigers have a lot of candidates to hit at the bottom of the order. Unfortunately, they have very few that deserve to be at the top of the order.AJ Hinch when asked about moving Spencer Torkelson down to the seventh hole: "You see him steadily moving down in the order and the next stop is next to me. We're trying to keep supporting him because he's a good player. But he's not in a good spot."
There are multiple issues with demoting Torkelson.. he’s late.. AAA isn’t fixing that.. it didn’t fix it in 2022.. his barrel rate is almost nonexistent ..and now wins are the priority not player development.. Hinch has moved him down and given him days off ..
His defensive issue compound the problem..also difficult to roster a one tool player .. who lost the tool ..The last 350 AB of 2023 bought Tork time just not unlimited time.
