Tigers’ Jaden Hamm Keeps Rolling

We highlighted Tigers’ righthander Jaden Hamm as a spring training pop-up prospect to know on multiple occasions. He was someone scouts kept mentioning as having eye-opening stuff, and he’s added a new slider. Hamm’s 2024 season has been as impressive as expected. Pitching for High-A West Michigan, Hamm lowered his ERA to 1.14 with 3.1 scoreless innings on Sunday. The Tigers limited Hamm to 70 pitches and the Dayton Dragons did a good job of working long counts, which explains the shortness of his outing, but overall, he was once again in control. Hamm has allowed just three runs this year and has a 37-3 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 23.2 innings.
