Tigers, Drew Maggi Agree To Minor League Deal

By Anthony Franco | June 27, 2024 at 9:32pm CDT

The Tigers are signing infielder Drew Maggi to a minor league contract, as announced by the Staten Island FerryHawks of the Atlantic League (X link). The 35-year-old has appeared in 29 games with Staten Island this year.

Maggi garnered some attention in baseball circles last spring. A veteran of 13 minor league seasons, he earned a long-awaited big league debut with the Pirates last April. Maggi had previously spent some time in the big leagues as a member of the Twins but wasn’t called into game action. He appeared in three contests for Pittsburgh, collecting two hits in six at-bats. The Bucs outrighted him in May and released him in July.

The righty-swinging Maggi wasn’t hitting well for Pittsburgh’s Double-A team at the time of his release. That required him to head to independent ball. Maggi hit .235/.301/.343 across 113 plate appearances in the Atlantic League. He’s a .254/.355/.378 hitter over parts of six Triple-A campaigns and owns a .252/.338/.316 mark in seven years at the Double-A level.

    I was just thinking about Maggi Magic the other day and looking at his BBREF page. Good on him, this guy loves baseball.

    I hope the tigers call him up in September when they are out of contention so that maggi can get his first home run and many other firsts

    He was a fun story to follow in April of last year. Hope he gets to appear in another MLB game.

      At the rate the Tigers have been playing, he probably will.

    Pirate legend. The videos of him getting called up and getting his first big league hit are must sees.

    This is more like the tigers signing a veteran presence for their minor league team. But also someone who seems like a coach in waiting

      Last year when the Pirates called him up, I thought that the Pirates might be grooming him to be a minor league coach. Don’t know if he can teach/coach others, but his dedication and work ethic could be assets for a minor league coach. Best of luck to him.
