Detroit Tigers president of baseball operations Scott Harris emphasized the team's focus on acquiring relievers with high swing-and-miss rates as the club prepares for the upcoming season.
Harris made the comments as pitchers reported to TigerTown in Lakeland, Florida, for spring training. On Thursday, February 12, 2026, right-hander Will Vest was among those taking part in early workouts.
The Tigers are looking to strengthen a bullpen that struggled with consistency last season. Harris indicated that adding pitchers who can generate strikeouts is a key component of the roster construction plan.
