Manager Ron Gardenhire talks top prospects, COVID-19 risk and the season, after Detroit Tigers open training camp at Comerica Park, July 4, 2020. Detroit Free Press
Detroit Tigers manager Ron Gardenhire has been quick to admit anything can happen in a 60-game season.
Sure, his optimism seems like a nice way of looking at the shortened schedule. After all, maybe his team can make the postseason.
But don't forget there's always a flip side oozing with skepticism. Although the Tigers feel they have a shot at a playoff run, it's no secret there's plenty of work to do before those beliefs become widely accepted.
