Now that we’ve had a chance to see the Tigers in spring training (20 wins/9 losses and 2nd place finish), as well as watch the first game of the regular season, what are your first impressions?
Is this a team that appears to have more talent than last year’s? And if so, how much more?
Is the team playing better baseball?
Have the young players visibly matured?
The many groups that offer their season predictions have opined about how well the Tigers will do this year.
PECOTA actually believes the Tigers will lose 3 more games than they did last year when they finished 78-84 and in second place. They forecast 75-87 for this year.
Others predict a similar record to that of 2023 while some say 81-81. A few are forecasting an above .500 and around 83-79.
Keep in mind that the team has almost an entirely new starting rotation. Only Tarik Skubal and Reese Olson (half a season) remain from last year. Overall, the Tigers have added 9 new players to the roster and they enter 2024 with the young players coming in and having a little more experience under their belts.
So what do you believe at this point in time will be Detroit’s final record? How many wins will they get?

How many games do you think the Tigers will win this year?

1. 75-80

2. 81-85

3. 86-90
