DETROIT -- The Detroit Tigers have reached the All-Star break with baseball’s best record, a commanding division lead, and a roster that has exceeded even optimistic projections. And yet it’s hard to ignore that ugly final week, which exposed cracks in their bullpen and raised questions about their readiness for a playoff run.

Tigers second baseman Gleyber Torres and left fielder Riley Greene will bat 1-2 in manager Aaron Boone’s lineup.
