Tigers News
The Detroit Tigers are set to kick off their 2026 season against the San Diego Padres at Petco Park, where Tarik Skubal is eager to make his first start. With high hopes following a solid previous year, the team aims for a playoff run, but their Opening Day roster reflects some last-minute uncertainty. The Tigers designated Dylan Smith for assignment to make room for rookie shortstop Kevin McGonigle, who is ready to debut. Complicating matters further, they've placed Sawyer Gipson-Long, Bailey Horn, and Trey Sweeney on the injured list, raising questions about the bullpen's depth. While Max Clark's rapid rise in the minors offers a glimpse of hope for the future, the immediate concern is whether this 25-man squad can capitalize on their potential and deliver a strong start to the campaign.
