Torkelson’s Bomb: A Glimpse of the Future or Just a Flash in the Pan?
Spencer Torkelson’s recent dinger against the Cubs has definitely got people talking, and I’m curious to hear what you all think. Is this the start of a true breakout season for Torkelson, finally living up to the hype that surrounded him as a top prospect? Or are we witnessing another fleeting moment of power that ultimately fades as the season wears on?
I’m leaning towards the former. I think Torkelson has finally found his groove in the Majors, and this homer is just the beginning of a consistent power display. What’s more, I’m willing to go out on a limb and predict he’ll finish the year with over 30 home runs. Am I crazy? Let me know your thoughts.
Beyond Torkelson, the Tigers seem to be showing signs of life. Do you think they have what it takes to make a serious push for a wild card spot, or are they destined for another disappointing season? What needs to happen for them to truly contend?
This is also a great time to discuss the overall state of the AL Central. It’s arguably the weakest division in baseball, but which team ultimately emerges victorious? The Guardians? The Twins? Or could another team sneak in and surprise everyone? Let the debate begin.
