## Resource

Detroit Tigers are making waves with a pre-agreement on a 12-year-old pitching prodigy from the Dominican Republic, Kevin Sosa, who’s already throwing 91-93 mph—despite MLB rules barring official signings until age 16. While fans debate whether it’s too soon to lock in contracts and millions, the Tigers see potential and plan to sign him when eligible. Meanwhile, the team’s on-field performance is struggling, with recent losses and manager A.J. Hinch calling the mood “low,” as they prepare for a tough series against the Guardians.
