With about a week to go before Opening Day, thought I'd solicit opinions on a few outcomes for the upcoming season:
1. Tigers' win total (66 last season)...the last Vegas odds I saw had them at 69.5 wins. Do they claw their way into the 70s in 2023?
2. Cabrera's final hit count (starting at 3088)...he kept piling on the hits after reaching 3000 with 101 total last season. Though 3200 seems unlikely, how close does the Big Man get?
3. HR Leader (17 last season)...Baez led the way in '22. Who takes the team HR crown in '23? No Tiger has hit 25+ HRs since 2017. Does that drought end this season?
4. Save Leader (30 last season)...Soto has been traded. No one yet has been given the closer label. Who will be this season's Rolaids' Relief Man for the Tigers and will he come anywhere close to 30?
5. Wins Leader (7 in 2022)...Skubal and Lange tied for the team lead. Which hurler gets his name in the record books for most wins by a Tiger in '23?
6. Stolen Bases (9 in 2022)...Baez and Baddoo were in a group of 3 who reached that total. With the rule changes, surely someone on the roster reaches double digits. What's your prediction?
