Detroit Tigers' top prospect Colt Keith is managing an illness and is out of the lineup on Friday. He is expected back in spring training games this weekend.
Scott Harris, who just wrapped up his second offseason as the Detroit Tigers' president of baseball operations, is putting his faith in a handful of young bats this year.
Less than two weeks after adding former Mariners prospect Devin Sweet off waivers from the Giants, the Tigers designated him for assignment to make room for Colt Keith.
Colt Keith has yet to appear in an MLB game, but the Detroit Tigers decided to reward the 22-year-old infielder with a contract that runs through at least 2029.
