To avoid its sixth consecutive losing season, Detroit made some big acquisitions over the winter: Javier Baez, Eduardo Rodriguez, Michael Pineda, Andrew Chafin, and Tucker Barnhart, to name a few. Also, Casey Mize and Tarik Skubal will anchor the rotation.

Once the most feared hitter on the planet, the 39-year-old Miguel Cabrera will begin his penultimate season in MLB—he’s signed through 2023 plus two option years, which are not likely to be picked up. He’s relinquished his spot at first base and his power has been all but sapped, but he’s still a future Hall of Famer and should be treated as such.

In addition to the proven players, the Tigers will have highly touted prospects such as Riley Greene and Spencer Torkelson at their disposal.

A division title is not likely in the Motor City, but a Wild Card birth isn’t out of the question. Their quest begins on April 7 with six games at home against various Sox—first the White for three then the Red for three. They’ll close out the first half with three in Cleveland and begin the second half with two in Oakland. The 2022 Detroit Tigers season concludes with four in Seattle.
