No easing in, Tigers ready to hit the ground running vs. Central Division champs

Detroit — It’s likely to be a little wet and a little cold Friday afternoon, but with the Mardi Gras atmosphere that Opening Day brings to this city and the adrenalin that will be created by a jam-packed house at Comerica Park, who's going to feel it?

“It feels great,” Tigers manager A.J Hinch said in the dugout prior to putting his team through a light workout in similar wet and chilly conditions Thursday. “It doesn’t matter if it’s sunny or it’s cold or it’s raining, we’re happy to be here.”

The Tigers will open the 2022 season against the defending Central Division champion Chicago White Sox at 1:10 p.
