C Wilson RamosConfidence: LockRole: Starting catcherThere’s a legitimate three-way battle to back up Ramos, but everyone knows who the starter will be. AdSS Willi CastroConfidence: LockRole: Starting shortstopThere are going to be some defensive miscues, especially on the throw. As a result, the Tigers will have an extra roster spot to play with -- that’s why there will be 27 names on this list. He bet on himself and won, allowing just three runs while striking out 15 batters in 11 spring innings. If we’re being honest, a conversation about Baddoo as a starter feels more justified than a conversation about earning a roster spot.

DETROIT The Detroit Tigers have offered live streams of their intrasquad games for about a week now, and while the rules are loose and the results come with an asterisk, its blatantly obvious this team is much better than a year ago. READ: Predicting the full Tigers 30-man roster one week before the season beginsBack in February, I predicted that the Tigers could be 15-20 games better than their 47-114 record this season. After watching the Tigers intrasquad games from Saturday through Thursday (five games total), here are five positive observations.

DETROIT Make no mistake about it: The Detroit Tigers drafted Riley Greene because of his skills at the plate. The Tigers drafted Greene No. 5 overall in 2019 because he projects to be an elite hitter, but during Mondays intrasquad game, it was his glove that stole the show. Greene drifted back to his right, timed his jump perfectly and snatched the ball before it could land in the bullpen. It looks like the Tigers have a future star waiting in the wing whenever Greene rises to the MLB level.

Since he got through six batters on just 16 pitches, the Tigers had Mize face Bonifacio to get some extra work. Mize finished the game with 23 pitches and three strikeouts in two perfect innings, spanning seven outs.

DETROIT The Detroit Tigers have released their initial Club Player Pool, including 58 players who can participate in spring training. Schwindel was one of the nice success stories of spring training in March. Willi Castro could benefit from the extra roster spots, but Lugo feels like someone who could still end up on the outside looking in.

Dingler made the cut just weeks after being the teams second-round draft pick, but hell likely just get some work in Toledo.

Miggy is a fun-loving guy, but if you approach him about baseball, hes serious, Greiner said.
