DETROIT TIGERS NEWS

Alex Faedo - Solid in loss Faedo (1-2) allowed two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out two in six innings, but he took the loss Saturday versus the Guardians.

Impact Faedo did well to keep the Guardians fairly quiet early on, but the Tigers' offense didn't give him enough support. The right-hander has yet to give up more than two runs in any of his five appearances this season, and Saturday marked the first time he's completed six innings. He's posted a 3.00 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 16:8 K:BB across 27 innings. Faedo lines up for a home start versus the high-scoring Twins next week.

Miguel Cabrera - Exits with tight back Cabrera left Saturday's game against the Guardians with lower-back tightness, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Impact Eric Haase pinch-hit for Cabrera in the eighth inning. As long as Cabrera's injury doesn't turn out to be anything worse than tightness, he should be back in the lineup within a few days.

Joey Wentz - Set to start for Tigers on Tuesday Wentz (lower leg) will be called up as the Tigers' 27th man to start the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Twins, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Wentz exited Wednesday's start at Triple-A Toledo after he was hit on the shin by a comebacker, but the injury isn't a significant concern since he's been cleared to make his second major-league start Tuesday. The southpaw struggled in his big-league debut against the Athletics on May 11, as he allowed six runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out one in 2.2 innings.

Alex Faedo - Friday's game postponed Faedo won't start as scheduled Friday against the Guardians after the game was postponed due to inclement weather, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact The 26-year-old had his start against the Guardians postponed by a day last weekend due to inclement weather, and the same situation has surfaced again Friday. According to Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic, Detroit's rotation will be pushed forward a day with Faedo starting Saturday and Elvin Rodriguez on the mound Sunday.

Spencer Torkelson - On bench Friday Torkelson will sit Friday against the Guardians.

Impact It's been a disappointing rookie season thus far for Torkelson, who's hitting .179/.292/.309 with four homers and a 28.5 percent strikeout rate through four games. He'll head to the bench after going hitless in his last two games, with Harold Castro taking over at first base.

Ryan Kreidler - Reinstated from injured list Kreidler (hand) was reinstated from the 7-day minor-league injured list Friday.

Impact Kreidler has been sidelined since late April due to a fractured right hand that required surgery. However, he'll be back in action at Triple-A Toledo after missing just over a month. Prior to his absence, he slashed .246/.346/.462 with four homers, 12 RBI, six runs and four stolen bases over 18 games.

Miguel Cabrera's walk-off single lifts Detroit Tigers to win over Cleveland Guardians Guardians rally from 3-0 deficit but lose to Tigers on game-winning hit in ninth inning

MAY 27, 2022 • BEACONJOURNAL.COM

Robbie Grossman - Scores twice in win Grossman went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double and two runs scored in Thursday's win over the Guardians.

Impact Grossman had just one hit in his last 20 at-bats coming into Thursday's game, making the multi-hit effort a welcome sight for fantasy managers. The veteran outfielder is still only batting .199 for the season, so he'll need to string together more games like this to get back to a more respectable level. Grossman is at least playing regularly and often serves as the team's leadoff hitter, so he'll have opportunities to turn things around.

MAY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Miguel Cabrera - Leads offense Thursday Cabrera went 3-for-4 with a walk and two RBI in Thursday's win over the Guardians.

Impact All three hits were singles, which has become the norm for Cabrera. The veteran has six doubles and three home runs this season, but the rest of his 42 hits have only gotten him to first base. Still, he's now batting an even .300 with a .753 OPS, so there's definitely some fantasy value there. Fantasy managers just shouldn't expect Cabrera to be the dominant slugger he was earlier in his career.

MAY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Tarik Skubal - Goes seven innings Thursday Skubal allowed three runs on five hits across seven innings but did not factor into the decision in Thursday's win over the Guardians. He walked one and struck out five.

Impact Skubal probably deserves more than the three wins he has in nine starts this season, but Detroit has been sluggish offensively. The lefty has still pitched great with a 2.44 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 55 strikeouts across 51.2 innings this year. With Eduardo Rodriguez (ribs) and Casey Mize (elbow) both on the injured list at the moment, Skubal has emerged as the team's clear ace. He'll look to keep it rolling in his next scheduled outing Tuesday as part of a doubleheader against the Twins.

MAY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Gregory Soto - Earns second win Soto (2-2) pitched a scoreless ninth inning and earned the win Thursday against the Guardians. He allowed a hit and struck out one.

Impact Soto needed 21 pitches to get through the top of the ninth inning but he kept Cleveland off the board in a 3-3 game, and the Tigers walked it off in the bottom half of the frame. The lefty doesn't always make things pretty, though he does have a solid 2.45 ERA and has recorded seven saves in eight chances. He's the top Detroit reliever at the moment for fantasy purposes, and that likely won't change anytime soon unless Soto truly implodes.
