At long last, the kids are here! The Detroit Tigers called up a trio of their top prospects this week. Isaac Paredes made his MLB debut on Monday with a two-run single, while Tarik Skubal threw some smoke against the White Sox on Tuesday. Last, but certainly not least, Casey Mize is set to make his MLB debut on Wednesday. The triple debut marks a new era of Tigers baseball, one we are happy to celebrate with our friends at BreakingT.

You can click the link here to get your hands on this shirt, which comes from the same great company that helped us out with this beauty back in 2017. That shirt resulted in a championship for the team in question, so simple math proves that this one will too.
Okay, it may not happen in 2020, but we’re sure to bring one home soon, right? Right?!
MAKE SURE TO GET YOUR SHIRT HERE!
