Detroit Tigers Starting Lineup 10/27/20 Tigers Lineup
23-35, 5th in AL Central
Confirmed
Conf
DET 1 @ KC 3
Final
Unfortunately, for the great Detroit Tigers' franchise, one key reason that the AL Central is often dubbed the worst division baseball is because the Tigers are in it. Detroit is a rebuild in process, but there are a lot of puzzle pieces still missing. Detroit's projected lineup of bats has six hitters estimated to have a batting average below .260. That is going to make it difficult for a team who ran away with the worst run differential to make any type of vast improvement.
The Tigers' pitching staff allowed the second-most average runs per game, but the offense one-upped that honor by averaging fewer runs per game than any of the other 30 MLB clubs. There is very little pop in the middle of the order, and even fewer bats with a proven history of driving runs across the plate. Detroit has a reasonably strong ace at the top of the rotation, but the middle three spots in their rotation are average journey-men hurlers. The Motor City Kitties should win more games in 2020, but probably not too many more.

Detroit Tigers FAQ
Detroit is in the midst of rebuilding and has pieced together a better starting lineup in comparison to last year. They added some pickups like Jonathan Schoop and CJ Cron. Both would be strong names on any team, especially Cron against left-handed pitching. Miguel Cabrera is still sitting in the middle of the order, although his prime days are well behind him. Detroit will be looking for some of the younger players to breakout as Niko Goodrum and Christin Stewart will hit within the top half of the lineup. The bottom half of the lineup is a big letdown, as you would expect on a rebuilding team. Cameron Maybin is a long time player and has found himself in regular playing time.

Who Will DH For The Tigers?
With Miguel Cabrera being 37 years old, he will serve as the DH. Cabrera has battled injuries over the last few seasons and will be looking to find some old form. Look for Cabrera to hit in the middle of the order.
Where Does Miguel Cabrera Bat?
Miguel Cabrera is going to hit third in order for the Detroit Tigers. This has been his usual spot but will need to stay healthy. Having him off the field will help those odds.
Who Plays First Base For The Tigers?
