Trey Wingenter - Makes Opening Day roster Wingenter will be on the Tigers' 26-man roster to begin the season, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Impact Wingenter will see his first big-league action since 2019, when he posted a 5.65 ERA and 1.22 WHIP in 51 innings for the Padres. The Tigers don't boast much bullpen talent, so Wingenter could work his way into some high-leverage opportunities.

Chasen Shreve - Makes Opening Day roster Shreve will be a part of Detroit's Opening Day roster, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Impact Shreve earns a spot on the Tigers after forging a 2.25 ERA, 10:3 K:BB and even 1.00 WHIP over eight innings in eight appearances in the Grapefruit League. The southpaw was signed to a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training over the winter, so Detroit will have to add Shreve to the 40-man roster before Opening Day on Thursday.

Garrett Hill - Part of Opening Day roster Hill will be a part of Detroit's Opening Day roster, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Impact Hill earned one of the final spots on the Detroit roster despite posting a 7.11 ERA and 1.58 WHIP over 12.2 innings in the Grapefruit League. The 27-year-old right-hander not only is a part of the Opening Day pitching staff, but he could be tasked with starts as Beau Brieske is heading to the injured list to open the season.
MARCH 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Beau Brieske - Likely headed to injured list Brieske will likely start the year on the injured list, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Impact It's not yet known what will cause Brieske to miss time. The right-hander was considered a potential starter to begin the year for the Tigers, but that obviously won't take place now. The 24-year-old held his own in 15 starts with Detroit in 2022 with a 4.19 ERA and 54:25 K:BB over 81.2 innings.

Garrett Hill - Still battling for role Hill is likely battling for one of three remaining bullpen spots in Detroit along with Tyler Holton, Chasen Shreve, Trey Wingenter and Beau Brieske, Chris McCosky of The Detroit Ne...
Impact Holton and Shreve are both lefties, so the Tigers will likely want to keep one or both of them as situational options. Hill may still make the team as a long reliever, as he made eight starts last season as a rookie. The righty held his own with a 4.03 ERA, though he only had 40 strikeouts across 60.1 innings, so he seems unlikely to dominate batters out of the bullpen.

Chasen Shreve - Looks set to make team Shreve has a clearer path to an Opening Day bullpen spot with the Tigers reassigning Jace Fry, Trevor Rosenthal and Matt Wisler to minor-league camp Monday
Impact Shreve has pitched well this spring with a 2.25 ERA and 10 strikeouts across eight Grapefruit League innings. It looks like that will help the lefty make the team with the Tigers thinning out their options Monday. Shreve figures to mostly be used situationally against left-handed hitters and likely won't have a ton of fantasy appeal, at least in the early going.
MARCH 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ryan Kreidler - Seems likely to make team With the Tigers optioning Akil Baddoo and Zack Short to Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Kreidler has a clearer path to an Opening Day roster spot.
Impact Kreidler is versatile enough to play across the infield and in the outfield, and that appeared to give him the edge over Baddoo and Short. Even if he sticks on the roster into the regular season, Kreidler is unlikely to have a huge fantasy impact after recording a .477 OPS across 26 games with the Tigers last year.
MARCH 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Kerry Carpenter - Roster spot looks more secure With the Tigers optioning Akil Baddoo to Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Carpenter has a clearer path to an Opening Day roster spot.
Impact Carpenter and Baddoo were seemingly vying for a reserve outfielder role in camp, and for now, Carpenter is the last player standing. He showed flashes as a rookie in 2022 with a .795 OPS across 31 games while Baddoo struggled at the plate. Austin Meadows, Riley Greene and Matt Vierling seem likely to start in the outfield for Detroit, though Carpenter could earn himself more playing time as the season progresses.

Jonathan Davis - Sent out to minors camp The Tigers reassigned Davis to minor-league camp Monday.
Impact With Akil Baddoo getting sent out to Triple-A Toledo and with Davis getting reassigned, Detroit appears set to enter the regular season with Riley Greene, Austin Meadows Matt Vierling, Kerry Carpenter and utility men Zach McKinstry and Ryan Kreidler as its options in the outfield. Davis, who slashed .224/.344/.237 in 91 plate appearances in the majors with Milwaukee in 2022, is likely to join Baddoo in Toledo to begin the 2023 campaign.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Trevor Rosenthal - Sent to minor-league camp Detroit reassigned Rosenthal to minor-league camp Monday.
Impact The Tigers held Rosenthal back for most of spring training while he ramped up from the right lat strain that sidelined him late in the 2022 season, but the 32-year-old looks to be healthy now after he made his Grapefruit League debut Sunday versus the Rays. As was to be expected after a lengthy layoff from game action, Rosenthal looked rusty in his appearance, giving up two earned runs on four hits while retiring two of the six batters he faced. Rosenthal has shown the ability to be a dominant reliever at the big-league level when healthy, but he'll first have to regain his pre-injury form at Triple-A Toledo before the Tigers give him a look in their bullpen.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
César Hernández - Reassigned to minor-league camp The Tigers reassigned Hernandez to minor-league camp Monday.
Impact Hernandez was vying for a bench spot with the Tigers after signing as a non-roster invite in January, and while he got off to a strong start in the Grapefruit League, he ended it going 2-for-23 with six strikeouts over his final at-bats in Florida. Hernandez has the ability to opt-out of his contract, and there's a good chance he'll test free agency rather than reporting to Triple-A Toledo.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Michael Papierski - Reassigned to MiLB camp The Tigers reassigned Papierski to minor-league camp Monday.
Impact Papierski was re-signed by Detroit to a minor-league contract with an invitation to MLB spring training in November. The backstop struggled in his time with the Tigers to the tune of .143/.228/.187, and he'll be nothing more than an emergency depth option with Triple-A Toledo for the 2023 season.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Matt Wisler - Denied Opening Day roster spot The Tigers reassigned Wisler to minor-league camp Monday.
Impact Even though he settled for a minor-league deal with the Tigers in free agency, Wisler was expected to have a leg up on a spot in the Opening Day bullpen after submitting a sterling 2.25 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 35:14 K:BB in 44 innings at the big-league level with the Rays in 2022. Unfortunately for Wisler, he hardly resembled that pitcher in spring training, as he was touched up for 10 earned runs on 10 hits and seven walks while striking out just two over 5.1 innings. Unless he chooses to opt out of his deal with Detroit, Wisler will likely report to Triple-A Toledo and will look to sharpen his command and control with the hope of resurfacing in the majors.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jace Fry - Sent packing to minors camp The Tigers reassigned Fry to minor-league camp Monday.
Impact Fry was one of several non-roster invitee relievers with prior MLB experience who received an extended look from the Tigers in spring training, but Trey Wingenter and Chasen Shreve were the top standouts among that group of hurlers during Grapefruit League play and appear to have secured their spots in the Opening Day bullpen. Unless he and the Tigers agree to mutually part ways, Fry is expected to report to Triple-A Toledo to begin the season.
