"Inside the Detroit Tigers' 2023 Opening Day Roster Decisions"
The Detroit Tigers' 2023 roster is largely made up of homegrown players, with only five veterans from outside the United States. Former general manager Al Avila is responsible for acquiring most of the players on the roster, including nine through the amateur draft process and nine through trades. The group includes no homegrown international signees, and the Tigers have very few international players overall. New president of baseball operations Scott Harris is directly responsible for just seven of the 26 players on the roster.
