After a pair of cuts on Saturday morning, the Detroit Tigers 26-man Opening Day roster is set.
Now that we know the roster, it is time to look at what the Opening Day lineup will look like.
Here is my best guess at how Tigers manager AJ Hinch will roll.
LF – Robbie Grossman
3B – Jeimer Candelario
SS – Willi Castro
1B – Miguel Cabrera
2B – Jonathan Schoop
RF – Victor Reyes
DH – Nomar Mazara
C – Wilson Ramos
CF – JaCoby Jones
Nation, what do you think about this Opening Day lineup? What adjustment(s) would you make?
miguel cant be at first. they have to find some way around that. more likely put candelario or goodrum there. Candelario, and Harold Castro can do 3rd, goodrum at first and you keep Candy at first. Could even put goodrum at the hot corner, not sure how he grades out there. If Mazara is that bad in the outfield that he has to play dh most days, really he;s going to have to sit a lot. He’s just not part of the long term plan. Neither is Miggy, for that matter, but you have to give him his at bats.
