March 29 in Tigers and mlb history:

1867 - Denton True "Cy" Young is born in Gilmore, a tiny village near Newcomerstown, Ohio. Young will earn his nickname for his cyclone-like pitching motion and he will win (and lose) more games than any pitcher in major league history with a 511-316 record and a 2.63 ERA over 22 seasons. Young will win 20 or more games 15 times, and top the 30-win mark five times. He will be elected to the Hall of Fame by the Baseball Writers Association of America in 1937, with 153 votes on 201 ballots.

1973 ? The "Alert Orange Baseball" is used for the first time in major league history. The unique baseball, an invention of Oakland Athletics owner Charlie Finley, is used in an exhibition game between Oakland and the Cleveland Indians. Finley contends the ball, painted the color of a construction worker's hat, will be easier for both players and fans to see. But pitchers complain that the ball is slippery and hard to grip, while batters are unable to pick up the spin of the ball without seeing the seams. Although Finley pushes for the use of colored baseballs during the regular season, the idea will never come to fruition.

1988: Detroit returns John Wetteland to the Dodgers.

#Tigers have officially placed Andy Dirks on the 15-day DL.

Tigers have purchased Tyler Collins' contract from Double-A Erie.

They've also placed Jose Iglesias and Bruce Rondon on 60-day DL.

Analysis: Opening day roster officially set, Detroit Tigers unlikely to make additional moves.
from Mlive

Technically, the Tigers currently have 39 spots filled on their 40-man roster after placing both Jose Iglesias and Bruce Rondon on
the 60-day disabled list Saturday.
However, it doesn't appear the Tigers are in any sort of hurry to fill it.
At least before opening day.
