The Detroit Tigers have all but finalized their 25-man roster for Thursday’s Opening Day matchup against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Tigers look set in their bullpen, with Buck Farmer, Drew VerHagen, Warwick Saupold, Daniel Stumpf, Joe Jimenez, Alex Wilson and Shane Greene the expected crew. Saupold was competing with Johnny Barbato for the final spot, but Barbato is expected to begin the year on the disabled list.
However, there is a left-handed reliever that the Tigers could consider adding.
