2025 Tigers Spring Training

SATURDAY SURVEY.
Totally Tigers

Spring training just started this week for pitchers and catchers. Expect some significant competition within the Tigers’ organization for both starting and relief pitching. Invitees include the official roster members, pitchers on minor league contracts with ST invites and current farm system prospects.
MLB rules state that each team can only have a maximum of 13 pitchers on the roster.
Currently, the Tigers are expected to have over a dozen starting pitchers competing for 5 slots. There will also be at least 11 relievers vying for 8 bullpen roles.
Overall, there will be 27 pitchers. Fourteen of those will need to be cut.
For the rotation, Alex Cobb, Jack Flaherty, Reese Olson and Tarik Skubal are all set. Cobb just went on the IL so with just 2 slots left, it will be a contest between Jackson Jobe, Kenta Maeda, Matt Manning, Casey Mize and Keider Montero.
For the bullpen, those competing for slots will be Beau Brieske, Jason Foley, Sean Guenther, Brenan Hanifee, Tyler Holton, Brant Hurter, Ty Madden, Kenta Maeda (guaranteed to make roster as SP or RP) and Will Vest.
