Welcome to the team Hao-Yu Lee!
Lee, makes his Tigers organizational debut with West Michigan after being the return of Tuesday’s trade with the Philadelphia Phillies, slotting in as Detroit’s No. 6 Prospect by MLB Pipeline.
We couldn’t have asked for more production, excitement, hard work, and fun from these two.
We wish them all the best for this big next step, and we'll be watching them all the way on the road to Detroit.
Congratulations to Spencer Torkelson and Dillon Dingler!
