LAKELAND, Fla. — All this stuff will shake out by the end of spring training. Shoot, by then, some new players could be added to the mix, completely throwing these early calculations out of whack.
But as we sit here today, with the Grapefruit League season starting on Saturday, it’s hard to see how the Tigers are going to piece this thing together on the position-player side.
“I think there’s going to be a little bit of a mentality shift here,” president of baseball Scott Harris said Monday. “We’re looking at our team as 13 position players.”
