Detroit – Manager AJ Hinch has set the Tigers Opening Day roster, but not necessarily in stone. There are probably more than a few players still walking on egg shells because one sticky question remains unanswered.
What happens when right-handed starting pitcher Spencer Turnbull gets cleared and returns from the non-baseball (COVID-19 protocol) injured list?
We can debate it, but the answer isn’t coming for a few weeks yet. Turnbull remains away from the spring training facility and the Tigers don’t yet know when, how or where his ramp-up back to game condition will be.
