2/04/25 | Top Detroit Tigers Prospect Narrowly Missed MLB.com's Top 100 Rankings. On Monday, MLB.com's Ben Weinrib revealed the 10 prospects from across the league who just barely missed out on being named to the website's fresh top 100 prospects ranking. Among those who did not quite make the cut was Detroit Tigers infielder Jace Jung, a long heralded youngster who got his first taste of the Major Leagues in 2024. The placement represents a slip for Jung, as the 24 year old was ranked as the No. 60 overall prospect in the game by MLB.com in the 2024 list released before the start of last season. It is not a massive surprise that Jung's stock has fallen a bit, given the struggles he had when he did reach the Majors last year. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/tigers/news/top-detroit-tig... |

Sawyer Gipson-Long and Alex Lange are both playing catch up to 120 feet three times a week, while Tyler Mattison will start bullpen progressions this week.
