The Detroit Tigers have honored Riley Greene, a standout talent in their lineup, for his remarkable achievements this season. Greene, drafted fifth overall in 2019, has transitioned from a promising rookie to an All-Star, showcasing exceptional power and consistency. This year, he reached a historic milestone with at least 21 doubles, 21 home runs, and 69 RBIs by midseason, joining the elite ranks of Hank Greenberg and Miguel Cabrera.

As the Tigers sit atop the AL Central with a 54–34 record, Greene's .292 batting average and .890 OPS illustrate his critical role in the team's resurgence. His performance has not only matched last year's output but exceeded it, making him a pivotal figure in the Tigers' playoff ambitions. If he maintains this trajectory, Greene will not just influence the team's immediate success but also secure his place in the franchise's history.
