Roar restored! Free Press sports writer Anthony Fenech breaks down the Tigers’ Opening Day at Comerica Park win over the Royals, 5-4, April 4, 2019. Anthony Fenech, Detroit Free Press
The names in the clubhouse seem largely the same.
There’s Miguel Cabrera and Nicholas Castellanos and not many other Detroit Tigers that would be recognized in real life. Not Josh Harrison, not Niko Goodrum and certainly not Spencer Turnbull, who many of the casual fans occupying Comerica Park for Opening Day did not know existed, and still may not.
These Tigers — the expectations, the predictions — are just like last year’s team.
