Having closed out the last weekend of spring training baseball, we are a few short days away from the start of the season. The roster has been set and the team has two more warm ups before heading north. Let’s take a look at what folks are talking about.
The first bit of news emerged Monday morning, as one Renato Nuñéz appeared as a bench player when official lineups for this afternoon’s contest against the New York Yankees were released. Nuñéz has decided to accept his assignment to Toledo, rather than seek greener pastures, and so the Tigers will have to time to work with him at first base with an eye to a promotion later on this spring.
