New York Yankees vs. Detroit Tigers: Prediction, MLB picks, odds for 8/30/2023 The New York Yankees will take on the Detroit Tigers in an MLB matchup on Wednesday. This prediction includes our best bet of the game.
Brendan White - Opening Wednesday's contest White will serve as the Tigers' opening pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Yankees, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Impact The Tigers will likely call on White to cover one or two innings before he exits the contest and turns the game over to Joey Wentz, who will be called up from Triple-A Toledo and is expected to work in bulk relief. White is serving as an opener for the second time this season after he previously made his first MLB start July 1 in Colorado.

Jake Rogers - Returns to lineup Rogers (hand) will start at catcher and bat ninth Wednesday versus the Yankees in his return to the lineup, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact Rogers has dealt with a minor hand issue recently, though he had been available off the bench the past two days. He will catch for starting pitcher Brendan White in Wednesday's contest while Carson Kelly retreats to the bench.
AUGUST 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Javier Báez - Absent from lineup Baez is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact Baez had started each of the last five contests after missing a couple games with an illness. Zach McKinstry will man shortstop Wednesday.

Tarik Skubal - Tough loss in strong start Skubal (3-3) took the loss Tuesday, allowing three runs on four hits and two walks over six innings in a 4-2 loss against the Yankees. He struck out nine.
Impact The talented southpaw gave up solo home runs to Gleyber Torres in the first inning and Kyle Higashioka in the fifth inning, not allowing any hits in the interim. Skubal's third run was unearned due to a passed ball in the sixth and he was tagged with the unfortunate loss as Detroit's offense failed to provide any run support. After maxing out at 5.1 innings in his first seven starts, the 26-year-old has gone exactly six innings in each of his last three outings, compiling a 3.50 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and a dazzling 23:4 K:BB across those 18 innings. Skubal's next start is tentatively scheduled to occur on the road against a fledgling White Sox offense over the weekend.

Zach McKinstry - Doubles, scores Tuesday McKinstry went 1-for-3 with a walk, a double and a run scored in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Yankees.
Impact McKinstry now has hits in three straight games and seven of his last eight appearances. The utility man is still only batting .243 overall, though that's a significant improvement from the .199 mark he posted with the Cubs and Dodgers last season. McKinstry's versatility makes him useful for the Tigers but he's typically not the most exciting fantasy option.
AUGUST 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Parker Meadows - Delivers offense in loss Meadows went 3-for-4 with two RBI in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Yankees.
Impact Meadows had three of Detroit's seven hits and both of the team's RBI. It was the rookie's first career three-hit game, and he's off to a great start overall with a .333 batting average and .994 OPS through eight appearances. Meadows figures to remain a regular in center field the rest of the way as the Tigers focus on his development heading into 2024.

Report: Tigers put veteran reliever Jose Cisnero on waivers Jose Cisnero was still active and available Tuesday even though reports had him among a flurry of veterans placed on waivers.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • DETROITNEWS.COM
José Cisnero - Placed on waivers by DET The Tigers placed Cisnero on waivers Tuesday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
Impact Cisnero has registered an underwhelming 5.36 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 56:20 K:BB in 48.2 innings this season for Detroit, but the 34-year-old right-hander was an effective major-league setup man between 2020-2022 and he can be picked up by another team with a simple waiver claim.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Joey Wentz - Likely pitching Wednesday Wentz expected to be called up by the Tigers to pitch Wednesday against the Yankees, either as a starter or behind an opener, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Pressreports.
Impact The 25-year-old has a 6.62 ERA in 19 appearances (17 starts) for Detroit this season, and it appears he'll receive another look in the majors this week. Wentz already joined the big-league club Tuesday, though he'll still need to be officially added to the active roster ahead of Wednesday's contest.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Matt Manning - Set to start Thursday Manning (back) is scheduled to start Thursday's game against the Yankees, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Pressreports.
Impact The 25-year-old originally lined up to take the mound Wednesday, but Joey Wentz is instead poised to pitch. Manning exited his most recent start last Friday with a stinger in his lower back, but the issue won't prevent him from making his next turn through the rotation. The right-hander has pitched well in his past three starts with just one earned run allowed across 17.2 frames.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Garrett Hill - Rejoins big club Hill was recalled from Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Impact Hill has a 9.88 ERA over 13.2 big-league frames this season but has been in the minors since early July. The 27-year-old also hasn't been particularly effective at Triple-A this year with a 4.54 ERA, 1.72 WHIP and 53:25 K:BB over 37.2 innings.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Andrew Vasquez - Out with calf tightness Vasquez was placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with left calf tightness, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Impact The 29-year-old has surrendered eight earned runs over six innings since being claimed off waivers by Detroit in early August, and he'll now be unavailable for at least the next couple weeks. With just over a month left in the campaign, Vasquez could have difficulty returning this season if he requires a shutdown period beyond a few days.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jake Rogers - Available despite hand issue Rogers is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees due to left hand inflammation, though he's expected to be available off the bench, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com rep...
Impact It's the second straight absence for Rogers, who suffered the injury last week when he was struck by a catcher's interference. It doesn't appear to be a serious concern, and the 28-year-old could rejoin the starting nine within the next couple days. Carson Kelly is receiving his second straight start behind the plate Tuesday for Detroit.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jake Rogers - Absent from lineup again Rogers is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees.
Impact Rogers has now sat out two straight and three of the last four in favor of newcomer Carson Kelly. While Rogers is probably still viewed by the Tigers as the starting catcher, it makes sense for the team to be giving Kelly a longer look before they decide whether to pick up his option for 2024.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Miguel Cabrera - Taking seat Tuesday Cabrera is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Yankees.
Impact Cabrera served as the Tigers' designated hitter for the previous two games but will begin this one on the bench. Kerry Carpenter will be the DH and Riley Greene will play right field.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Bennett Sousa - Claimed by Detroit The Tigers claimed Sousa off waivers from the Brewers on Tuesday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Sousa will join his fourth different organization of the season. The 28-year-old has put up big strikeout totals during his time in the minors but has struggled during his big-league opportunities, posting a 9.00 ERA and 14:12 K:BB over 23 relief innings the last two seasons. Sousa will report to Triple-A Toledo.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Casey Mize - Checks out fine after live session Mize (elbow) reported no issues after throwing a 20-pitch live batting practice session Saturday, MLB.com reports. "It's good to have a hitter in the box again," said Mize, who wil...
Impact The 26-year-old faced hitters for the first time since undergoing Tommy John surgery last June. According to manager A.J. Hinch, Mize looked "exceptional" during the session, with the right-hander sporting a fastball that hovered around the mid-90s and also mixing in sharp-breaking curveballs. Mize could need at least a couple more live sessions before getting cleared to head out on a minor-league rehab assignment. He could have a chance to pitch in the big leagues before the season ends Oct. 1, but if that comes to fruition, the Tigers may deploy him as a reliever or as an opening pitcher rather than a traditional starter.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Matt Manning - Trending toward making next start Manning (back) had been scheduled to throw a bullpen session Monday and expects to be ready to make his next start Wednesday against the Yankees at Comerica Park, MLB.com reports.
Impact Manning dealt with what he described as a "stinger" in his lower back during his most recent outing this past Friday against Houston, during which he struck out three while allowing one unearned run on one hit and no walks over 6.1 innings. According to Evan Woodbery of MLive.com, manager A.J. Hinch said that the Tigers will check back in with Manning on Tuesday to see how he came out of the bullpen session. Expect the Tigers to confirm shortly thereafter whether or not Manning will be able to take the hill Wednesday.
