Detroit Tigers Newsletter: Class of 2018's early risers should shine this week

Do you remember what you were doing on June 4, 2018?

The Detroit Tigers were splitting a day-night doubleheader with the Yankees at Comerica Park. (Your faithful newsletter writer was in the stands celebrating his birthday for all 18 innings, so “remember” might be too strong a word.)

(We’d ask about June 5-6, too, to cover the 11 other members of the Class of 2018 already in the bigs, but we don’t have an alibi for those days, so why should you?
