No Tigers last night, so it's a good time to shout out 10 under the radar prospects who may not be on top 10 lists now, but could be soon:
From Joe Rampe

Angel De Los Santos
Angel De Los Santos, 18, MIFFCL: 152 PA, .279/.349/.471, 103 wRC+, 5.9 BB%, 19.1 K%De Los Santos looks like a player who could not only stick at short but also have 50-55 grade tools across the board if things break right. His swing looks good + his numbers are encouraging.

Lucas Elissalt
Lucas Elissalt, 21, SPHigh-A: 55.1 IP, 4.39 ERA / 4.37 xFIP, 27.2 K%, 10.6 BB%, .254 BAAElissalt dominated the FSL in '25 + w/ a strong pitch mix + ability to command it. The walks have ticked up in '26 but so has the velo. Elissalt looks like a SP w/ a lot of untapped upside.


Jhonan Coba
Jhonan Coba, 19, SPFCL: 27 IP, 6.00 ERA / 5.37 xFIP, 28.9 K%, 17.4 BB%, .224 BAACoba doesn't have traditional SP size, but he's athletic + has a lightning bolt for an arm, w/ electric stuff to match. Like with all SPs, command will be key - but the upside is sky high.

Cale Wetwiska
Cale Wetwiska, 21, SPFCL/A: 13 IP, 2.77 ERA / 3.78 xFIP, 24.1 K%, 7.4 BB%, .286 BAAWetwiska gives some Troy Melton vibes, w/ a strong arsenal (106 tjStuff+) coming from a unique arm slot w/ big extension. He's shown decent command in a small sample + is another high upside SP.

Alistair Tanner
Alistair Tanner, 19, SPA: 25.2 IP, 6.31 ERA / 5.33 xFIP, 24.1 K%, 14.3 BB%, .221 BAAThe surface numbers to date aren't great, but the stuff is:FB averages 95 w/ 20" IVB + 2500 rpm. High-spin curve + slider also flash plus, as does the change. One of the best arms in the organization.

Oscar Tineo
Oscar Tineo, 17, MIFDSL: 73 PA, .293/.397/.414, 84 wRC+, 11.0 BB%, 17.8 K%Tineo is a fast twitch, switch-hitting shortstop who could be a plus defender in time. He's handled the strike zone in limited DSL action + has a loose, athletic swing. A lot to like in Tineo's profile.

Eduardo Tusen
Eduardo Tusen, 17, IFDSL: 86 PA, .325/.360/.588, 116 wRC+, 4.7 BB%, 22.1 K%Tusen's ultimate home on D is a ?, but the arm is good. + thanks to tigersMLreport, we have video of the swing - it's also good, from both sides. There's thump in the bat + Tusen looks like hitterish.

Jude Warwick
Jude Warwick, 20, MIFA: 280 PA, .237/.323/.367, 89 wRC+, 9.6 BB%, 26.8 K%Warwick passes the eye test as a smooth-swinging LH hitter who plays up the middle w/ good speed. At a lanky 6'1", he's still growing into his strength - but the tools are there for a potential breakout.

Owen Hall
Owen Hall, 20, SPFCL: 30.2 IP, 6.16 ERA / 5.22 xFIP, 24.3 K%, 8.1 BB%, .220 BAAHall is a '24 2nd rnd pick who's dealt w/ injuries + has yet to take off. But 6'3" RH SPs w/ stuff + athleticism like this don't grow on trees.A potential #3 SP (or more) w/ some luck / development.

River Hamilton
River Hamilton, 19, SP(Currently on full-season IL)Hamilton is out for the yr w/ an injury, but his upside is as high as any pitcher in Detroit's system.The lanky 6'3" RHP has a projectable frame + looks the part, w/ potentially above avg stuff + command if all goes well.

Rogelio went on Friday to Akron to check out the longest outing of Andrew Sears of the season as Chris and him discuss Sears's development. For a system that needs more pitching at the upper levels, Sears has potential to help Detroit at some point in the next season.

Bonus Episode: TMLR Breakdowns: E.J. Exposito. 11 minutes.
Chris and Rogelio breakdown Erie SeaWolves infielder E.J. Exposito, who has hit a career high in home runs and has increased his walk rate and what he could be doing differently.
 
Tigers trade minor-league reliever to Twins for cash.
The Tigers traded 27-year-old minor-league right-hander Woo-Suk Go to the Minnesota Twins for cash considerations.
Go, who had a 2.60 ERA and 0.98 WHIP at Triple-A Toledo, had exercised the upward mobility clause in his contract. The Tigers, had they not traded him, would’ve had to put him on their 40-man roster.
The Twins were expected to add him to their active roster.

The Tigers have sent RHP Matt Seelinger to the New York Mets for a cash consideration. This is another deal prompted by an upward-mobility clause. Seelinger was not on the 40-man roster.

Michael Oliveto is back -- and a Tigers first-rounder is showing the scouts didn't miss

His manager, Brayan Pena, himself a longtime MLB catcher, says it's not only skills behind the plate and with the bat that make Oliveto a facsimile of Dillon Dingler -- it's the personal portfolio.

Bryce Rainer has been tearing apart High-A pitching. He’s slashing .345/.453/.611 over his last 30 games, with 7 HR, and a 175 wRC+.BB% over 16% in this stretch, while he’s kept the K% below 28%.


 
Triple-A Toledo infielder Max Anderson will replace catcher Thayron Liranzo as the Tigers' representative at the Futures Game in Philadelphia on July 12.
Liranzo has a left index finger laceration that required stitches, which is why he's on the IL and won't be able to play in the game.
