In the Detroit Tigers search to find such a player, the team might have “struck gold” in finding their next big bat when the club signed Avisail Garcia in 2007. http://tigers.scout.com/2/1213618.html 2047 Sam Woolard http://tigers.scout.com/2/1213618.html Tue, 21 Aug 2012 22:10:00 GMT 1 273 Detroit tigers Avisail Garcia enters a room and immediately draws attention to himself, standing at an imposing 6' 4", 230 pounds, he's quickly earned the name "mini-Miguel" for his frame and power potential.

What tools are there that made Garcia such a prime candidate for an aggressive push? http://tigers.scout.com/2/956561.html 2047 Mark Anderson http://tigers.scout.com/2/956561.html Wed, 24 Mar 2010 11:40:00 GMT 1 273 Detroit tigers The LFT has had a rough go at the dish this season, but they showed signs of life against Dunedin last week, and that leaves a glimmer of hope for better offensive performances as the season continues.
