  • Good to start Saturday
    Olson (hip) is listed as the Tigers' probable starter for Saturday's game against the Blue Jays, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

    Advice: The 24-year-old exited his start Monday against the Royals with a bruised hip after being struck by a comebacker, but he's ready for his next turn through the rotation. Olson has enjoyed a nice start to the campaign with a 2.16 ERA over 50 innings, but he's been particularly effective across his past five starts with just three earned runs allowed.

  • Getting break Friday
    Baez is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: The 31-year-old will begin in the dugout and cede shortstop responsibilities to Zach McKinstry as Detroit takes on Toronto for the second game of the series.

  • 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.

    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 23 minutes ago
