Spring training decisions are starting to take shape for the Detroit Tigers with less than four weeks until Opening Day on March 26. On "Days of Roar," Evan Petzold and Chris Brown break down the Troy Melton injury and six early roster cuts, then dive into the latest on top prospect Kevin McGonigle and his real chances of making the Opening Day roster – including which position player could be on the chopping block to make room for him. We also unpack the Max Clark situation, featuring his comments and A.J. Hinch's comments amid outside criticism about his personality after dropping two fly balls in one inning. Former Tigers player and current Tigers broadcaster Andy Dirks joins the show to discuss his broadcasting journey and his outlook on the 2026 Tigers, headlined by Justin Verlander's return, Riley Greene's adjustment and McGonigle's rapid rise. To close, Petzold and Brown provide an injury update on Jackson Jobe and react to Detroit SportsNet becoming the new broadcast home of the Tigers and Red Wings.
