Matt Manning - Next step undecided Manning (shoulder/illness) covered 1.2 innings in his rehab start Tuesday at Triple-A Toledo, giving up one run on two hits and two walks while striking out three.
Impact Making the fourth start of his rehab assignment at Toledo after his previous outing was cut short when he experienced lightheadedness, Manning experienced no health-related setbacks. However, the right-hander didn't work as deep into the start as the Tigers has hoped, as he was pulled after throwing just 43 pitches (25 strikes). According to Jason Beck of MLB.com, manager A.J. Hinch said that the Tigers have an organizational edict to limit all minor-league pitchers to no more than 30 pitches in a given inning, so Manning was pulled early after he struggled with efficiency during the second inning. As a result of the short outing, the Tigers are still deciding whether Manning will need another rehab start, or if he's built up enough at this point to slot back into an injury-depleted big-league rotation that desperately needs another healthy arm.

Elvin Rodriguez - Picking up another start Rodriguez is listed as the Tigers' scheduled starter for Saturday's game against the Guardians in Detroit, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact Rodriguez will make a second straight turn through the Detroit rotation, more so because the Tigers currently have six starters on the injured list rather than as a result of his performance in his first MLB start Monday. Though the right-hander lasted five innings and took a no-decision against the Twins, he gave up four earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out four. How Rodriguez performs against the Guardians will likely determine whether he or Rony Garcia sticks around as the Tigers' No. 5 starter when Matt Manning (shoulder) likely returns from the IL next week.

Ramón Rosso - Makes 2022 debut Rosso (undisclosed) returned from the 7-day injured list Saturday and made his season debut for Triple-A Toledo on Sunday, striking out one and issuing two walks over a scoreless i...
Impact Rosso joined the Tigers on a minor-league deal in March, but he never arrived in time for spring training after experiencing visa issues. Triple-A Toledo then placed him on the 7-day IL on April 13, though it's unclear if he was made inactive on account of needing time to build up or due to a legitimate injury. Regardless, Rosso finally made his 2022 debut over the weekend, and he'll look to cobble together some quality appearances for Toledo as he attempts to earn a call-up to the majors. The 25-year-old right-hander previously made 14 big-league appearances with the Phillies between the 2020 and 2021 seasons.

Robbie Grossman - Takes seat Wednesday Grossman isn't starting Wednesday against the Twins.
Impact Grossman will get a breather after he went just 1-for-20 with a double, a run, a stolen base, a walk and six strikeouts over the last five games. Willi Castro, Derek Hill and Daz Cameron will start in the outfield from left to right.
MAY 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Miguel Cabrera - Takes seat Wednesday Cabrera isn't starting Wednesday's series finale against the Twins.
Impact Cabrera will get a breather Wednesday after starting four straight games, going 5-for-16 with a double and two RBI in those contests. Javier Baez will take over at designated hitter while Harold Castro enters the lineup at shortstop and bats second as the Tigers try to avoid the sweep.
MAY 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Tucker Barnhart - Breather Wednesday Barnhart is not in the lineup for Wednesday's series finale versus the Twins.
Impact Barnhart will get the day off after starting in Tuesday's loss, going 0-for-3 in the contest. Eric Haase will get the start behind the plate and bat eighth.

Sonny day: Gray's 7 shutout innings send Twins past Tigers
Sonny Gray compiled a season-high 10 strikeouts over seven sharp innings, carrying the Minnesota Twins past the Detroit Tigers 2-0 for their sixth straight victoryMAY 25, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Michael Fulmer - Looks sharp in loss Fulmer struck out all three batters he faced in Tuesday's loss to the Twins.
Impact Fulmer hadn't appeared in a game since Wednesday, as the Tigers are just 1-5 in their past six contests, so they haven't turned over too many leads to their more high-leverage relievers. The righty didn't show any rust, as he made quick work of the Twins in the seventh inning. Fulmer now has 14 strikeouts across 16.1 innings this season to go with a 3.31 ERA.

Beau Brieske - Loses again Tuesday Brieske (0-4) allowed two runs on six hits across four innings to take the loss Tuesday against the Twins. He walked one and struck out three.
Impact Brieske pitched OK, though he needed 90 pitches to get through four innings, so he wasn't able to go very deep in the contest. He was also outdueled by Sonny Gray, who tossed seven shutout innings, and the Tigers fell 2-0 with just five hits as a team. Brieske at least bounced back after allowing two long balls and six runs in his last start, but his first MLB win remains elusive. The rookie will carry a 5.04 ERA into his next scheduled start Sunday against the Guardians.

Rony García - Moving into rotation Garcia is scheduled to make his first start of the season in Wednesday's game in Minnesota, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact Last week, Eduardo Rodriguez (ribcage) became the sixth Tigers starting pitcher to go on the injured list, so Detroit will pluck Garcia from the bullpen to shore up a depleted rotation. The starting assignment comes after Garcia performed admirably in relief of the injured Rodriguez on May 18 in Tampa Bay, with the 24-year-old right-hander striking out six over 2.2 innings while giving up one earned run on a hit and a walk. Garcia's 54-pitch appearance against the Rays was his longest of the season, so he's unlikely to be entrusted to work deep into his start Wednesday.

Andrew Chafin - Saddled with first loss Chafin (0-1) allowed a run on two hits and a walk while retiring just one batter to take the loss Monday against the Twins.
Impact Coming on in the bottom of the ninth inning with the game tied 4-4, Chafin walked leadoff hitter Max Kepler. He then allowed a single to pinch-hitter Kyle Garlick that put runners on the corners, and an infield hit by Gio Urshela with one out gave the Twins a walkoff win. Chafin had gone four straight appearances without allowing a run, and the lefty still owns a tidy 2.89 ERA despite the hiccup, so he should remain a key relief option in Detroit.
