Summary
The Detroit Tigers just made a big splash, locking up top draft pick Cameron Flukey for $3.8 million. The 6’6” righty, selected 22nd overall, boasts a 98 mph fastball and a devastating curveball that hitters can’t resist. After a breakout 2025 season with 118 strikeouts in 100+ innings and a College World Series appearance, Flukey battled a rib injury last year—but he’s back and ready. With the Tigers surging (9-3 in their last 12 games) and in the playoff hunt, Flukey’s electric stuff could fast-track him to the majors sooner than expected.
