I'm thinking Rutschman, Vaughn, or Jung as my top 3 for the Tigers... Going pure bat.

Rutsch prolly outta reach... but I think Vaughn could fall to us and as he's a 1B'man... might be just what we need...

I like Misner in the 1st and then Mendoza or Toglia in the 2nd. Lots of time though for things to change. IF Carter Stewart is still there, will we take him instead of hitting?

Good lord no

you see the riots in france right now? if the tigers draft a pitcher with their first round pick those riots will pale in comparison to what will happen on this board.

Mayo at Pipeline has a mock draft up and he has the Tigers taking a PITCHER at 5, mostly due to the fact that they took college arms w its last two top picks. 

Graeme Stinson, the Duke lefty.

Very bad Mayo. Very bad.

ROFL

I am sticking with my standard prediction.  They are going to draft a hard throwing pitcher who lacks command.  He could be a mid-rotation starter if he figures it out, but some scouts think he'll end up as a reliever.

OK, they'll pick Andy Vaughn.  His name will look good in a box score  

Vaughn 1B  4 1 2 2

Different hitters. We need Andy's power right now...

Arky's bat too...

Can we get one of each?

I'll take two of those 73 WAR and 136 OPS+'s please...

[84 Lives!!! 109]

PS: I think I have a 1937 Wheaties cereal box (cutout, off the back of the box...) of Arky Vaughan

What about Andy Van Hekken?  Or Drew VerHagen?  Justin Verlander?  He was pretty good.

Vaughn wasn't a slugger, but his home park didn't do him any favors:

Why wouldn't north be up on this figure? Are they messing with us? Yeah, I get it, they want home plate at the bottom. But nobody ever shows north anything but straight up.

Rand McNally just rolled over in his grave (which likely faces north, I bet).
