Summary
Wenceel Prez’s 2024 season with the Detroit Tigers is officially over after a brutal injury from an exercise band fractured his orbital bone and impaired his vision — rehab was halted in August when his sight didn’t improve, and manager A.J. Hinch confirmed he’s done for the year. Though expected back in 2027, there’s no timeline for his return, and the Tigers now face outfield uncertainty as they can’t evaluate Prez’s fit for next season. His versatility as a switch-hitter and multi-position outfielder would’ve been invaluable, especially with young players like Max Clark and Riley Greene already in the mix. With the team not in contention and Prez needing time to regain his timing, Detroit may need to bolster their outfield depth via trade or free agency this offseason — letting Prez focus on recovery without pressure.
