Cabrera is on a seven-game hitting streak and has four 3-hit games this season. But he is not the only one responsible for the Tigers’ surge.
Just last week I was trying to map out a way for the Tigers to be more consistent offensively.
Since then, Detroit swept Baltimore at home and took game one in their series against the Tampa Bay Rays. While there hasn’t been an offensive explosion in any of the games, the Tigers are finally scoring to support their pitching staff. The most steady contributors during the mini four-game winning streak have been Miguel Cabrera, Harold Castro, and Willi Castro. Cabrera leads the team in batting average (.296) and runs batted in (14) while tying Spencer Torkelson for the team lead with three home runs. Cabrera is also on a seven-game hitting streak and has tallied four 3-hit games so far this season. But he is not the only member of the lineup responsible for the Tigers’ surge.

Harold and Willi Castro Providing Punch Off Bench During Tigers Surge
When a team has too many starting quality players, that is usually seen as a good thing. But trying to find at-bats for all of them can prove to be difficult. Such is the case with Harold and Willi Castro. Although they do not have enough at-bats to qualify, they are the top two hitters on the Tigers. Willi has a .353 batting average in 51 at-bats so far this season. Since becoming a regular member of the starting lineup on May 10th, Willi has only had one hitless game and has raised his batting average from .240 to .353. Hittin’ Harold Castro has seen about the same number of games as Willi, but less consistently. He is more of a sporadic player who is most known for his ability to hit. If you watch him play nothing about him really stands out, but he usually manages to have a positive impact on the game. Harold is hitting .306 and hit the go-ahead home run in the Tigers’ win last night.

The toughest thing for A.J. Hinch is to try and find consistent playing time for them. When both are hot at the plate as they are right now you want them in every lineup. However, there are other players who need those at-bats as well who can’t just be benched in favor of either Castro. Willi’s work in the outfield has helped him become a regular as of late. Harold would be a good DH candidate, but Cabrera holds that spot nearly every day. Harold also has been playing some first base to give Torkelson a bit of a mental break, but he will be the full-time first baseman. Even if they continue to perform they will likely remain bench pieces. If they can keep this form even without regular playing time it makes this Tigers team potentially dangerous moving forward.
