Running it back: Can Detroit Tigers win with same offense in 2026?

Spring training games are underway, and the Detroit Tigers have rolled out two alternate uniforms: an orange jersey for home games and a navy jersey for road games, with a "Days of Roar" grade for both uniforms. Evan Petzold and Chris Brown react to Tarik Skubal announcing he will make just one start for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic, plus we discuss owner Christopher Ilitch and special assistant Miguel Cabrera stopping by TigerTown. In the Big 2, Petzold and Brown share their biggest takeaways from the first three spring training games (including what Kevin McGonigle did in his first spring game) and debate how the Tigers will sort through a crowded six-man outfield before Opening Day. Hitting expert Scott Chu, a senior fantasy analyst at Pitcher List, joins the show to provide an in-depth breakdown of the Tigers' offense, with an emphasis on Riley Greene, Spencer Torkelson, Kerry Carpenter, Colt Keith, Parker Meadows and Wenceel Pérez, along with top prospects McGonigle, Max Clark and Josue Briceño. To wrap up, Petzold and Brown discuss the best role for Keider Montero and the early bullpen struggles in spring games.
