We are into game three of Spring training for the Detroit Tigers. So when games are on and you are looking up stats the day after games, who should you be watching? Which players are the most important for you to be following? Who should you be keeping an eye on for the big league team and the minor league teams?

Well, we will look at both of those scenarios. We will look at who you need to be watching this Spring for players who will be on the big league team come April. Then in another post we will look at who you should be watching that may or may not make the team but could end up in the minors.

Spring training is such a fun time because it means regular season baseball is almost here. MLB Network has 200 spring training games this March. It is just a happy, happy, month that only leads to a month full of baseball and that is a great thing. So let us look at 5 Detroit Tigers who will be in Detroit come April, but you should be watching this Spring training.
