Summary
The Detroit Tigers are building for the future with big moves in the 2026 draft, locking down first-round pitcher Cameron Flukey and Competitive Balance Round B pick Evan Dempsey—both right-handers with serious upside. Flukey, the 22nd overall pick from Coastal Carolina, returns the Tigers to first-round pitching since 2021, while Dempsey, a two-way college star from FGCU, brings elite strikeout potential. With 20 total picks and a focus on college talent, the Tigers are also eyeing eleventh-round first baseman Will Adams, who’s committed to LSU. These signings signal a bold, young core in the making.
