After weeks of fine-tuning and evaluation, the Opening Day rosters are now set. All 30 Major League clubs have trimmed down to 25 active players with many position battles coming right down to the wire, particularly among relief and reserve roles.
Below is a look at how each club's roster came together for the beginning of the 2017 season:
Orioles: With Wade Miley and Chris Tillman starting the year on the disabled list, the O's could have some tough roster decisions when they return. More »
Red Sox: Right-hander Ben Taylor earned the final spot in the Boston bullpen for his strong performance this spring. More »
Yankees: Infielder Pete Kozma inked a Major League contract and will serve as the club's starting shortstop while Didi Gregorius remains sidelined. More »
Rays:Daniel Robertson secured a reserve role as the Rays finalized their 25-man roster prior to Sunday's win over the Yankees. More »
Blue Jays:Roberto Osuna landed on the disabled list to start the year, leaving closer duties to veteran Jason Grilli, while Ryan Goins claimed the final roster spot ahead of Melvin Upton Jr.More »

Tigers: The Tigers placed J.D. Martinez on the DL with a right foot sprain, opening the door for outfielder JaCoby Jones to make the roster. More »
Royals:Adalberto Mondesi claiming Kansas City's second-base job was the most notable surprise as the Royals finalized their 25-man roster. More »

Astros:Jandel Gustave was awarded the final spot in the eight-man bullpen, leaving right-hander James Hoyt as the odd man out. More »
Angels: After strong showings in exhibition play, non-roster invitees Bud Norris and Blake Parker claimed the final two vacancies in the bullpen. More »

Pirates: The Bucs finalized their bench this weekend, optioning José Osuna to Triple-A Indianapolis and keeping Alen Hanson and Phil Gosselin as reserves. More »
