Kyle Sleeth was the Tigers first round pick in 2003 and the third player take overall in the draft.  So far though, Sleeth hasn’t lived up to the hype and he’s currently trying to come back from Tommy John surgery.  He had a rough comeback season last year and he’s hoping to continue things this year.   This is a great story on Sleeth and it’s well worth the read.

Also, the Tigers outrighted Preston Larrison today.  I touched on him in a column earlier this week and he’ll get an invite to spring training.  Now we’ll get to see if he makes it.  You can check out more of the details at Detroit Tigers Weblog.
