1. Rick Porcello, rhp
2. Ryan Perry, rhp
3. Cale Iorg, ss
4. Casey Crosby, lhp
5. Jeff Larish, 1b/3b
6. Wilkin Ramirez, of
7. Scott Sizemore, 2b

9. Dusty Ryan, c
10. Guillermo Moscoso, rhp It's not the best system in the majors, but it's definitely improving. Whether that's a product of a solid draft, or because there was nowhere to go but up, I don't know. But Porcello/Perry/Iorg is a much better top 3 than quite a few systems (yeah, I know that still doesn't say a lot...)..

No-No for Porcello

A bit misleading of a title, I will admit. Rick Porcello contributed to a seven inning no hitter against the St. Lucie Mets.

His line:

5.0	0	1	1	2	1	0	2.91

5.0

2.91

Contributing to the no hitter were 2008 draftees Rob Weinhardt (10th rd) with 2 strikeouts and Cody Satterwhite (2nd round) with 1 strikeout. Both Weinhardt and Satterwhite pitched a scoreless inning.

Here's the box if anyone's interested.

Is this a sign that the Tigers are doing well in the quest to rebuild their farm system?
