The Detroit Tigers selected high school shortstop Bryce Rainer with the No. 11 overall pick in the 2024 MLB draft, followed by high school pitchers Owen Hall and Ethan Schiefelbein at Nos. 49 and 72, respectively. Tyler Jennings, the director of draft content at Prospects Live, joins the podcast to share his evaluation of the three players. After that, Mark and Evan discuss the Tigers' red-hot offense entering the All-Star break and how president of baseball operations Scott Harris should approach the July 30 trade deadline. They also take a look at Jack Flaherty's return from his back injury and Kenta Maeda's transition to the bullpen. To wrap up, Mark and Evan share what stands out about the way the Tigers have approached the MLB draft with Harris, assistant general manager Rob Metzler and scouting director Mark Conner running the show in the last two drafts.
