PROSPECT: Ty Madden, SP, Detroit Tigers
ANALYSIS: If Madden wouldn’t have been injured in his draft season, he would have potentially gone in the top 10 selections of the 2021 draft, rather than with the 32nd overall pick to the Tigers.
He returned to the mound last season and picked up the pace slowly but surely throughout the year, making some of his most impressive starts in the final days of the Double-A season. Madden has worked with the data he’s been provided to alter the shape and delivery of his fastball and give a second look to his plus slider by altering its shape.
The results in his first start of the year were very promising, as he struck out 10 and walked one in four no-hit innings. He’s now a year past injury and cleared 120+ innings last season, so he should be clear to work as many innings as his performance earns.
VERDICT: The Tigers have plenty of upper minors arms pushing for an opportunity, but if Madden pitches like this, he’ll move to the head of the class. Definitely worth a stash in deep dynasty and a look in shallow dynasty as well.
Ty Madden kept the K corner busy!
