  • Baez on bench Friday
    Javier Baez is on the bench for the Tigers’ game against the Blue Jays on Friday.

    Advice: Baez no longer has the lowest OPS among qualified hitters in all of baseball. That honor now belongs to the White Sox Andrew Benintendi. Still, with a .513 OPS Baez is just about the worst everyday player in baseball from an offensive standpoint. Zach McKinstry will take his spot and bat eighth on Friday. Rotoworld 4 minutes ago
  • Taking seat Friday
    Palacios is out of the lineup for Friday's game versus the Royals.

    Advice: Palacios started the previous four games but will sit Friday after he went 3-for-14 with a walk and a run during that stretch. Jonny DeLuca will start in right field and bat third. Rotowire.com 6 minutes ago
  • Not in Friday's lineup
    Lowe (side) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Royals.

    Advice: The 26-year-old departed Wednesday's contest with a right side strain and was sent for an MRI on Thursday, the results of which remain unknown. Lowe will sit for at least one game and should be considered day-to-day until more information is available. Rotowire.com 8 minutes ago

  • Back from illness
    Maeda (illness) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list Thursday and will start Friday against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: After landing on IL earlier this May with a viral illness, Maeda will return and face Toronto for his starting appearance since May 7. The right-handed veteran has started seven games this season with a 1-1 record and 6.75 ERA. Rotowire.com 9 minutes ago
  • Manning optioned to Triple-A Toledo
    Tigers optioned RHP Matt Manning to Triple-A Toledo prior to Friday’s game against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Manning had been scheduled to start Friday’s game, but was scratched and optioned to the minors so that the Tigers could activate Kenta Maeda and reinsert him into the rotation. Manning didn’t make the Tigers rotation out of spring training, but has made five starts for the club. He has a 5.88 ERA and 1.55 WHIP with Detroit. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago

  • Maeda activated, to start Friday
    Tigers activated RHP Kenta Maeda from the 15-day injured list on Friday.

    Advice: Maeda will start Friday’s game against the Blue Jays with Matt Manning optioned to Triple-A Toledo. Maeda is returning from a 15-day stint on the injured list with a viral illness. He has a 6.75 ERA and 1.40 WHIP in seven starts with Detroit this year. Rotoworld 13 minutes ago
  • Lowe (side) out of lineup Friday
    Josh Lowe (side) is out of the Rays’ lineup for Friday’s game against the Royals.

    Advice: Lowe left Wednesday’s game against the Red Sox with right side tightness and was subsequently sent for an MRI. The Rays probably wouldn’t have submitted their lineup already if Lowe was being placed on the injured list today. For now, no update on Lowe’s status is potentially a good update.
