Many of the biggest stories that came out of Lakeland this spring had little to do with the established talent on the Detroit Tigers’ roster. The roster battles that played out weren’t as tense as we have seen in years past, and the highly-bemoaned standings projections provide little excitement.
But there were plenty of positive signs to be found lower down the rungs of the organizational ladder. Daz Cameron made his case for a roster spot, Casey Mize impressed in his first spring with the organization, and Spencer Turnbull (our No. 14 prospect this spring) earned a spot on the 25-man roster.
