## Resource

Zach McKinstry’s gritty, hustle-driven tenure with the Detroit Tigers may be winding down as his production dips and the team embraces a younger, faster crop of talent. Once a fan favorite for his smart base-running and clutch plays — including an All-Star nod and career-high batting average last year — McKinstry now struggles to replicate that impact. With his speed fading and offensive numbers declining, the Tigers’ future leans toward athleticism and upside, making it hard to justify keeping a veteran whose value is waning. The end of the Zach McKinstry era in Detroit might be near. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
