Could the Detroit Tigers Be Quietly Poised to Dominate the American League?

But perhaps the most significant development for Detroit’s offense has been the turnaround from first baseman Spencer Torkelson. In what was likely his last chance with this team, Torkelson has been one of the best stories in baseball so far this season. The 2020 No. 1 pick currently leads the Tigers in home runs (8), RBI (24) and walks (18), providing much-needed thump in the middle of Detroit’s order.
Last season, the Tigers’ playoff run came as a surprise to most of baseball, but their success so far in 2025 doesn’t feel like a fluke. With consistent starting pitching and a standout bullpen, combined with timely hitting and internal development from several hitters, the Tigers have been able to rise to the top of the American League.
