Had it not been for COVID-19 ruining everything, Opening Day 2020 for the Detroit Tigers would have started on March 26, as they were scheduled to take on the Cleveland Indians at Progressive Field.
Though the originally scheduled Opening Day never happened, there will now be a 60-game MLB season which will begin on July 23 or 24.
We do not yet know who the Tigers will square off against on the new Opening Day but here is a look at what I believe the starting lineup (and starting pitcher) will look like when manager Ron Gardenhire submits his lineup card.
RF Cameron Maybin
SS Niko Goodrum
DH Miguel Cabrera
1B C.J. Cron
2B Jonathan Schoop
3B Jeimer Candelario
C Austin Romine
LF Victor Reyes
CF JaCoby Jones
P Matthew Boyd
