Detroit Tigers going for it, despite sticking with status quo

For better or for worse, the gang is back.

Tigers general manager Al Avila sat in the corner of the room in Comerica Park on Thursday as the Tigers prepared to kick off the winter caravan.

J.D. Martinez is still here. For now.

Ian Kinsler is still here. For now.

So are Justin Upton and Jose Iglesias

Surprisingly, they are going for it, one last time, at least with this group.

In October, Avila said the Tigers were changing course, that they wanted to get younger and leaner, quicker and more athletic.
