Trey Yesavage's Rookie of the Year aspirations could be challenged by Tigers' shortstop
Trey Yesavage dominated in the 2025 postseason but will be treated as a rookie in 2026; MLB executives list Kevin McGonigle and Yesavage as co-favorites for AL Rookie of the Year.
Tigers will prioritize continued development in Double-A/Triple-A for top prospects McGonigle, Clark, and Briceno rather than promoting them to the MLB in 2025.
