New Tigers’ position player grades are pretty brutal but not unfair

The Tigers' harsh grades reflect a compounded disappointment more than individual failures in their lineup.

This is the #1 most overlooked stat when assessing Starting Pitchers. The defense behind them. If you can determine defensive strength in the pre-season.
The important stat, is the Tigers were #17, now they have no real 3B, and a statue with no throwing arm at 2B.

LOOKING BACK – Part 1.
Totally Tigers

Every once in a while, it’s interesting to go back in time and see how fans responded to the important moments during the Tigers’ 2025 season. Were they seeing the issues correctly? Did they call an event in advance? Did they remain consistent in their beliefs? Were they proven right?
We last reviewed how fans performed earlier this summer. It’s time now to review the polls readers completed for the last third of the season – August through early October. There are some interesting results.
Grab one of these polls and address it if you like. There is a thought-provoking statement after each one. Tell us what you think.

After a strong 2025 season from Brenan Hanifee, let’s take a closer look at what improved from 2024 to 2025.

Sinker Improvements
Avg Velo: 94.8 95.2 MPH
Whiff%: 8.8 10.9
Induced Vertical Break (iVB): 6.2 4.2-Stuff+: 98 105
The sinker improvement was mainly focused on gaining more velo and creating more depth by losing a little spin efficiency and gaining more SSW.

Overall Arsenal Grades (Individual pitch per pitchprofiler.
Stuff+: 99 102
Location+: 104 105-Pitching+: 98 106

Value Added-WAR: 0.5 0.6
Dollars: $4.1M $5.1M
Key Takeaway: The improvements weren’t driven by reinventing the arsenal, but by having better execution, location and more velo!l These changes enhanced his two of his superpowers: the sinker and his pitchability.
