The Detroit Tigers are shifting focus beyond the Alex Bregman saga and looking ahead to a promising season following their recent playoff berth. With a roster brimming with potential and spring training on the horizon, roster projections are taking shape. Notably, Kenta Maeda appears to be in line to secure a spot in the rotation, especially with Alex Cobb sidelined due to injury. After a disappointing previous season, Maeda's performance in bullpen sessions suggests he may reclaim a starting role, potentially competing with rising talents like Casey Mize and Matt Manning for the spot. Early projections indicate a rotation featuring Maeda, Tarik Skubal, and other key arms as the Tigers aim to build on their recent success.
