Earlier this week, Baseball America released its new Top 100 prospect list for 2025, and five Detroit Tigers players made the list.

That’s an impressive haul that few teams could match. But, after the release of the Top 100, the site also released a list of every player from every team that received at least one vote for the Top 100.

The Tigers had an eye-popping 11 players receive at least one vote.

The five players that received enough votes to make the Top 100 where pitcher Jackson Jobe (No. 3), outfielder Max Clark (No. 22), infielder Kevin McGonigle (No. 23), shortstop Bryce Rainer (No. 60) and catcher Thayron Liranzo (No. 69).

Who are the other six prospects? They included catcher Dillon Dingler, shortstop Franyerbrer Montilla, infielder Jace Jung, right-handed pitcher Jaden Hamm, catcher Josue Briceño and shortstop Trey Sweeney.

Three of those prospects are already in the Majors and figure to make the opening-day roster. Dingler reached the Majors in July and served as a backup catcher last season. He slashed .167/.195/.310/.505 with one home run and 11 RBI.

Sweeney was part of what the Tigers received in the Jack Flaherty trade, with Liranzo being the rest of the haul. He made his MLB debut in August and became the starting shortstop, where he slashed .218/.269/.373/.642 with four home runs and 17 RBI.

Jung was also called up by the Tigers in August to take over at third base. The 2022 first-round pick slashed .241/.362/.304/.665 in 34 games with the Tigers.

Hamm has quickly become a respected member of the prospect pipeline after he was selected in the fifth round of the 2023 MLB draft out of Middle Tennessee. Last season at High-A West Michigan he went 5-4 with a 2.64 ERA in 24 games, as he struck out 122 and walked 31 in 99 innings.

Briceño is a Venezuela native who is just 20 years old but already has three years of pro baseball under his belt. Injuries limited him to just 40 games at Class-A Lakeland, but he slashed .278/.381/.377/.758 with two home runs and 22 RBI. He also played in the Arizona Fall League.

Montilla, also from Venezuela, is just 19 years old and is coming off a 2024 season that ended at Lakeland in which he slashed .226/.374/.362/.736 with six home runs and 30 RBI.

Many of these prospects will be at spring training later this month.

Pitchers and catchers report to spring training in Lakeland, Fla., on Feb. 12. The rest of the roster will report on Feb. 17. Detroit will open its spring training schedule with a home game against Philadelphia on Feb. 22 at Publix Field at Joker Marchant Stadium.  

DETROIT – The upcoming redevelopment of the Renaissance Center was discussed at the 2025 Detroit Policy Conference.

On Thursday, Jan. 23, 2025, Jared Fleisher, with Rock Family of Companies, and David Massaron, with General Motors, discussed the redevelopment. Brad Williams, with the Detroit Regional Chamber, moderated.

According to a release from the Detroit Regional Chamber, the panel explained why the building is considered a cultural icon of Detroit. The Renaissance Center was built with the intention of being closed off from the city, which sparked the conversation about redevelopment.

Massaron said GM needed a new center for the company of Detroit, which was the Hudson Building, and an expert in redeveloping the Renaissance Center. In the end, they decided to partner with Bedrock.

Main changes to expect at Ren Cen

Here are the main changes to expect, according to Fleisher:

• Resizing the Renaissance Center and making it open and accessible to everyone creates a welcoming environment for anyone visiting.

• Remove the podium to reconnect downtown to the Detroit RiverFront.

• Remove two office towers and replace them with a signature park, open to the public for anyone from anywhere.

Fleisher said there will be a hotel, apartments, and affordable housing. These changes will make it a “navy pier-like family-friendly entertainment destination to drive economic growth.”
