Manager: Scott Servais (second season)
Who's new? LF Jarrod Dyson, SS Jean Segura, IF Danny Valencia, RF Mitch Haniger, C Carlos Ruiz, C Tuffy Gosewich, RHP Yovani Gallardo, LHP Drew Smyly, LHP Marc Rzepczynski, RHP Casey Fien, RHP Chris Heston
Who's gone? OF Seth Smith, SS Ketel Marte, C Chris Iannetta, OF Nori Aoki, RHP Taijuan Walker, RHP Nathan Karns, LHP Vidal Nuno, LHP David Rollins, RHP Tom Wilhelmsen
Projected lineup: LF Jarrod Dyson (.278, 1 HR, 25 RBI, 30 SB with Royals), SS Jean Segura (.319, 20, 64, 33 with Diamondbacks), 2B Robinson Cano (.298, 39, 103), DH Nelson Cruz (.287, 43, 105), 3B Kyle Seager (.278, 30, 99), C Mike Zunino (.207, 12, 31), 1B Danny Valencia (.287, 17, 51 with A's), RF Mitch Haniger (.229, 5, 17 in 34 games with Diamondbacks), CF Leonys Martin (.247, 15, 47, 24 SB)
Rotation: RH Felix Hernandez (11-8, 3.82), RH Hisashi Iwakuma (16-12, 4.12), LH James Paxton (6-7, 3.79), RH Yovani Gallardo (6-8, 5.42 with Orioles), LH Drew Smyly (7-12, 4.88 with Rays)
Key relievers: RH Steve Cishek (4-6, 2.81, 25/32 SV), RH Edwin Diaz (0-4, 2.79, 18/21), RH Nick Vincent (4-4, 3.73), RH Evan Scribner (0-0, 0.00 in 12 games), LH Marc Rzepczynski (1-0, 2.64 with A's and Nationals), RH Casey Fien (1-1, 5.49 with Twins and Dodgers)
Hot spots: First base and right field. Veteran Valencia has the first baseman's job for now, but Dan Vogelbach is the heir apparent who will begin the season at Triple-A. Vogelbach, 24, slimmed down this offseason ' a necessity when you're 6 feet tall, weigh 250 pounds and expect to play your first full major league season ' and might have more weight to lose. Valencia, 32, has never been a full-time first baseman in seven seasons. Haniger is known more for his glove than his bat, but he struggled (.713 OPS) in limited time at a hitter-friendly park in Arizona last year. Safeco Field won't be as kind. Cruz will play right field if Haniger doesn't.
Outlook: General Manager Jerry Dipoto has paired a staff of fly-ball pitchers with three rangy outfielders, an exercise in team-building he once tried with the Angels. Dipoto caused a stir by executing 40 roster transactions during the offseason, but is it possible he didn't do enough? Haniger has never been atop a major league depth chart. Pitchers Gallardo and Smyly are coming off shaky seasons in Baltimore and Tampa Bay, respectively. On paper, the Mariners look like a top-heavy team without much help in the minors if the bottom falls out. That was the case for Dipoto with the Angels too, and sometimes it worked out OK. More often it didn't. | | DETROIT: 2016: 86-75, second place.
Manager: Brad Ausmus (fourth season).
He's Here: C Alex Avila, OF Mikie Mahtook.
He's Outta Here: OF Cameron Maybin, SS Erick Aybar, C Jarrod Saltalamacchia, 3B Casey McGehee.
Projected lineup: 2B Ian Kinsler (.288, 28 HRs, 83 RBIs), 3B Nicholas Castellanos (.285, 18, 58 in 110 games), 1B Miguel Cabrera (.316, 38, 108), DH Victor Martinez (.289, 27, 86), RF J.D. Martinez (.307, 22, 68 in 120 games), LF Justin Upton (.246, 31, 87), C James McCann (.221, 12, 48) or Alex Avila (.213, 7, 11 with White Sox), CF Mikie Mahtook (.195, 3, 11 with Tampa Bay) or Tyler Collins (.235, 4, 15), SS Jose Iglesias (.255, 4, 32).
Rotation: RH Justin Verlander (16-9, 3.04 ERA, 254 Ks), RH Michael Fulmer (11-7, 3.06), RH Jordan Zimmermann (9-7, 4.87), LH Daniel Norris (4-2, 3.38), LH Matt Boyd (6-5, 4.53).
Key relievers: RH Francisco Rodriguez (3-4, 3.24, 44/49 saves), RH Bruce Rondon (5-2, 2.97), LH Justin Wilson (4-5, 4.14, 1 save), RH Alex Wilson (4-0, 2.96), RH Anibal Sanchez (7-13, 5.87 in 35 games, 26 starts).
Hot Spot: Back of Starting Rotation. Zimmermann and Norris could be major contributors if healthy, but the No. 5 spot in the rotation is much more uncertain. Sanchez has a big contract and some impressive career accomplishments, but he's 33 and coming off two straight disappointing seasons. Boyd was merely serviceable a season ago.
Outlook: The Tigers have made no secret of the fact that they'll need to cut costs soon, but they've generally put off doing so. Verlander, Cabrera and Kinsler are back, and Detroit is ready to make another bid for a postseason spot. The Tigers fell just short of a wild card last season, and the team's top players aren't getting any younger, so this could be the last shot for Detroit to win big before a significant overhaul. Verlander and Cabrera are still producing like stars, and Fulmer won Rookie of the Year honors last year. If the Tigers are going to take another step forward, they'll probably need Zimmermann and Norris to perform well after both dealt with injury problems a season ago. Speaking of injuries: J.D. Martinez sprained his right foot March 18 and is expected to miss the start of the season. The Tigers finished eight games behind Cleveland in 2016. Closing that gap won't be easy, and a lot might depend on whether Detroit can stay healthy. |
| | Banged-up Tigers come home to take on Mariners
DETROIT -- The Detroit Tigers left Comerica Park lacking one of their regulars. They return for a 10-game homestand with nearly half of the lineup ailing. During the course of a 4-5 road trip, the Tigers had to place shortstop Jose Iglesias, first baseman Miguel Cabrera and center fielder JaCoby Jones on the disabled list. Right fielder J.D. Martinez has yet to make his season debut, leaving the Tigers with a makeshift lineup as they start the homestand against the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday night. Iglesias is on the seven-day DL due to concussion symptoms. Cabrera, Jones and Martinez are on the 10-day DL. Cabrera has a groin strain, Jones sustained facial injuries when hit by a pitch, and Martinez is recovering from a foot sprain. The Tigers received unexpected lifts from minor league call-ups while winning two of three at Minnesota during the weekend. John Hicks, filling in for Cabrera, had five hits and drove in six runs in the two wins over the Twins. Center fielder Jim Adduci, who hadn't appeared in a major league game since 2014, had three hits, two runs and two RBIs in a 13-4 victory on Sunday. Adduci, 31, played two seasons in Korea after appearing in 44 games with the Texas Rangers in 2014. "It was a great moment," Adduci said. "Going away for a couple of years, it was great. I had a great experience overseas and it helped me out a lot, in the sense of having a mentality I didn't have before." Hicks' major league experience before the weekend consisted of 17 games with Seattle in 2015 and one game with Detroit last season. "Baseball can be a tough life, especially for a journeyman player or a minor-leaguer who doesn't get a lot of time in the big leagues," Tigers manager Brad Ausmus told the Detroit News. "When they do get an opportunity, or a taste of this, I think everyone pulls for them." The newcomers will try to support right-hander Jordan Zimmermann (1-1, 5.94 ERA) against the Mariners. Zimmermann gave up five runs and 10 hits in an 8-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday. He has one career start against Seattle and collected a win. Zimmermann will be opposed by Felix Hernandez (2-1, 3.65 ERA). The Mariners ace notched his second victory of the season on Wednesday despite giving up a season-high four runs and 12 hits in 6 1/3 innings against the Miami Marlins. He is 9-3 with a 2.48 ERA in 15 career starts against Detroit. Seattle salvaged the finale of a four-game series against Oakland with an 11-1 win on Sunday. The Mariners made a significant move, designating center fielder Leonys Martin for assignment and promoting first baseman Dan Vogelbach from Triple-A Tacoma. "Those decisions are hard," Mariners manager Scott Servais said. "I really like Leonys. He's a big part of what we are doing here, and unfortunately, he really hadn't gotten going offensively." Vogelbach went 1-for-4 against the A's on Sunday. Seattle is hopeful that shortstop Jean Segura will be activated from the DL. Segura has not played since April 10 because of a hamstring strain. Third baseman Kyle Seager did not play Sunday because of a sore hip. Utility man Taylor Motter hit his fifth homer in 11 games, a grand slam, in the Sunday victory. "Getting a chance to play is great, and watching this team win is even better," he told MLB.com. "When we're losing and I'm playing every day, it's not fun. It's not a good feeling. But right now, good win, 11-1 on the road, and now we're headed to Detroit with an off day (Monday)? I'm one of the happiest people in the world right now." |
