As the Detroit Tigers continue their rebuilding project, the team’s 2019 roster will feature several new faces who were not on the roster on Opening Day last year. The turnover has been gradual, but noticeable as veteran players have moved on via trade or free agency.
The Tigers signed four veteran free agents who will start the season in Detroit. Franklin Perez is the only new addition to be promoted to the 40-man roster from the Tigers’ farm system since the end of last season.
The 2019 Tigers’ payroll is estimated to come in at $93.
