Following a recap of the power-packed weekend put together by the likes of Spencer Torkelson and Riley Greene, host Dan Hasty turns things over to a couple Single A West Michigan prospects who have been turning heads all summer. Colt Keith and Austin Murr take on the task of interviewing each other in a special “Players’ Pod” format, and the result is a revealing look at the fun and the struggles that come with playing Minor League Baseball.

We discuss comments made by manager A.J. Hinch, and host Dan Hasty imagines its impact on future seasons. This week, we meet infielder/outfielder Austin Murr, who became the first 2021 Tigers Draft pick to advance to the High-A level. A Rawlings Gold Glove winner at the college level with NC State, Murr has begun his pro career, hitting over .300 with an on-base percentage over .450. We also honor the kids from Taylor North, who captured Michigan’s first Little League World Series title since 1959

We’ve seen how MLB Pipeline and Baseball America feel about the Tigers top prospects, but what does Tigers management think about players like Spencer Torkelson, Riley Greene and Reese Olson?

Spencer Torkelson and Riley Greene headlined several players promoted throughout the Tigers farm system this week, and host Dan Hasty walks you through the impact of the upcoming changes.

Baseball America’s Emily Waldon joins host Dan Hasty for an engaging Q & A with Tigers fans submitting questions, covering every level of the Tigers farm system and the many prospects who may one day wear the Old English D. But first, meet Izaac Pacheco, the Tigers 2021 2nd round pick who has already flashed his power potential while getting his professional feet wet in Lakeland.

When the Tigers dealt Daniel Norris at the Trade Deadline, they received a pitcher who now ranks among their top 15 prospects. Right hander Reese Olson joins host Dan Hasty on this week’s episode of the RTD, and explains his rise up the prospect rankings.

Tigers first round draft pick, pitcher Jackson Jobe, considered himself a shortstop with a good arm just a couple years ago. Now, the high school pitcher of the year and the number 3 overall pick in the MLB draft is a key part of the Tigers future.

Tigers No. 15 prospect Colt Keith appears to be ahead of the learning curve in Lakeland, whether it’s his nearly .300 batting average as a 19-year-old, or his ease when discussing the many places he lived before even graduating from high school. Earlier in the show, Tigers director of amateur scouting Scott Pleis lays out the case for drafting high school pitcher Jackson Jobe third overall, describing the right-hander as a rare find with no obvious holes in his pitch mix.

Perhaps a memorable commercial featuring John Madden inspired the Tigers to take Big 12 pitcher of the year Ty Madden in the late first round of the 2021 MLB Draft, or maybe it was just his plus-slider. Whatever the reason, the Tigers are fortunate to get the highly regarded right-hander with their 2nd pick of the draft, and Dan Hasty is fortunate to get one-on-one exclusive interviews with Madden, as well as up-and-coming shortstop Gage Workman, who was recently promoted from Lakeland to West Michigan. It’s a jam-packed episode of the Road to Detroit, including a rundown of the week’s highlights.

A complete update of the Tigers highly-rated farm system includes more discussion of Riley Greene, as well as a pitcher who is spinning his way to a bright future.

Plus, Perfect Game’s Brian Sakowski offers his analysis of the upcoming amateur draft, which appears to be heavy on high school talent.

Dan Hasty welcomes the top-rated prospect in the Tigers farm system, Spencer Torkelson, to the show. The No. 1 overall pick of the 2020 Draft talks about the fun, if brief, time he had in West Michigan; how Babe Ruth may have been challenged just as much as hitters are today; and his respect for Tigers Hall of Famer Alan Trammell. Plus, he even offers some thoughts on potential Tigers picks in the upcoming MLB Draft. And Tigers radio play-by-play voice Dan Dickerson joins in the second half, with his thoughts on the young players who are making a significant impact in Detroit, including Akil Baddoo and Jake Rogers.

Dan Hasty welcomes both Tigers prospect Kody Clemens, and his dad, 7-time Cy Young Award Winner, Roger, to the show. It’s a fun, insightful conversation as we bounce from childhood coverups (Kody’s brothers may have gotten away with some things) to Roger’s thoughts on the current controversy surrounding sticky substances in baseball. Plus, find out what Kody thinks about choosing his own path as a hitter in a game his dad dominated as a pitcher.

Host Dan Hasty has plenty to update this week in the Tigers farm system, including a sooner-than-expected promotion for Spencer Torkelson and Dillon Dingler to the Double A Erie SeaWolves. But one teammate they left in West Michigan may not be far behind. Fellow 2020 draftee and current West Michigan Whitecap Daniel Cabrera checks in, and explains how he wants more than to be just an “average Joe” as he pursues his major league dreams. Later on, ESPN’s Kiley McDaniel offers his insights on the current state of the Tigers system, as well as who he thinks is at the head of the team’s draft day wish list.

Then, Emily Waldon from The Athletic joins Dan in the studio to discuss her latest Tigers Top 30 prospect rankings, including an update on her No. 1, Casey Mize, as he returns from a brief stay on the Injured List.

The Tigers No. 2 overall prospect, Matt Manning, has one of the best right arms in the minor leagues, but his most impressive talent may just be his savant-like knowledge of ‘The Office’. Manning answers every question – including TV trivia – thrown his way, before Dan Hasty takes his turn in the hot seat with a round of queries from the mailbag. Plus, updates on Riley Greene, Kody Clemens and Derek Hill.
