As someone who doesn't really follow pro baseball much, I'm wondering how many former tigers are on opening day pro rosters.

Wow, so only 5 players.

To further the question, which players have the best chance to get called up this year?

Mahtook, Coleman, Ranaudo and Aaron Nola

Edit - I know Nola might seem very surprising this being only his 2nd year as a pro but they have put him on the fast track.

Louis has already been on MLB rosters,

IDK about the rest

I would say those who are on 40 man rosters could be called up if the circumstances are correct

the rest not so much.

he is in AA so it may take some time, but he could be pro this year. I'll be keeping close track I want to see his debut.

Louis Coleman was fast tracked as well, made his MLB debut his 2nd year IIRC...might have been 3rd, but it was pretty quick

Pretty much everything I've read on him says he will be called up before the end of the year. Apparently, the Phillies roster is a big pile of shite right now, and their pitching coach is really high on him.

Matt Clark should have made the Brewers. He'll be up at some point. As will Renaudo

Rumbelow has a decent shot to get called up this year as well. He went from A to AAA last year and pitched really well this spring.

So weird for a guy to be in the minors that long and finally make it to the big show. Good for him for sticking with it.

Does their paycheck increase if they get called up? I would think not, but maybe?

He's in the link in the second post. Most of the discussion was about what guys may get called up.

Austin is doing good. Aaron just wasn't at spring training, but is progressing well.
