Tigers First-Rounder Cameron Flukey Set for Pro Debut in Lakeland
Detroit's 22nd overall pick in 2026, RHP Cameron Flukey, will make his first professional start for Low-A Lakeland this week.
The Detroit Tigers have assigned 2026 first-round pick Cameron Flukey (22nd overall) to Low-A Lakeland for his pro debut. The 21-year-old right-hander missed part of his final college season at Coastal Carolina due to a rib stress fracture. The Tigers are aiming to build his innings back up, and sources indicate he has looked strong in bullpen sessions. If development goes well, Detroit may push him to High-A to start the 2027 season.
