Miguel Cabrera - Rests after getting 3,000th hit Cabrera is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Impact One day after bagging the 3,000th hit of his career after going a collective 3-for-8 with two RBI and a run while starting in both ends of Saturday's doubleheader, Cabrera will get a well-deserved rest. Austin Meadows will receive a turn as the Tigers' designated hitter while Cabrera retreats to the bench.

Jason Foley - Sent to minors The Tigers optioned Foley to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday.

Impact Foley was moved off the 28-man active roster to clear a spot for shortstop Javier Baez (thumb), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Over his five relief appearances with Detroit spanning 5.2 innings, Foley gave up two earned runs on seven hits and no walks while striking out zero.

Javier Báez - Activated, batting third Sunday The Tigers reinstated Baez (thumb) from the 10-day injured list ahead of Sunday's game against the Rockies in Detroit. He'll start at shortstop and bat third in the series finale,...

Impact Baez was sidelined for just one day beyond the minimum amount of time on the IL with the sore right thumb, an injury that first surfaced April 13. Even though Baez wasn't sent out on a rehab assignment prior to being activated, the Tigers shouldn't have much hesitation about deploying him on an everyday basis now that he's back in action. Baez's return will likely leave fewer at-bats to go around for Harold Castro and Willi Castro.

Beau Brieske - Takes loss in debut Brieske (0-1) suffered the loss against Colorado in Game 2 of a doubleheader Saturday, tossing five innings and allowing three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out t...

Impact Brieske didn't pitch terribly in his first big-league start, but a pair of Colorado homers accounted for three runs against him, which was enough to tag him with a loss. The right-hander yielded only one hit aside from the long balls but didn't miss many bats with only three punchouts. Brieske's opportunity to start was partly due to the Tigers playing a doubleheader, so it's unclear what his role will be moving forward.

Daz Cameron - Returned to minors Cameron was returned to Triple-A Toledo on Saturday.

Impact Cameron served as the Tigers 29th man for Saturday's doubleheader against the Rockies. He started the second game, going 0-for-2 with a strikeout. Cameron has gotten off to a terrible start with Toledo, as he's hitting just .185/.233/.259 across 30 plate appearances.

Tarik Skubal - Blanks Rockies in big win Skubal (1-1) pitched six scoreless innings to earn the win over the Rockies in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader. He allowed five hits and struck out six.

Impact The Tigers provided 13 runs on offense, which was more than enough for Skubal, who dominated Colorado across six innings of work. The lefty allowed four earned runs in his first start of the season, but over his last two outings, he's given up just one unearned run across 11.2 innings. That's allowed Skubal to lower his ERA to a dazzling 2.30, and he could be on the cusp of a breakout season. He'll look to keep it going in his next start, tentatively lined up for Thursday against the Twins.

Austin Meadows - Big effort in blowout win Meadows went 2-for-4 with a walk, two RBI and three runs scored in a win over the Rockies in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader.

Impact Meadows was a driving force in the easy 13-0 Detroit win, which continued his strong start with his new team. The outfielder is batting .325 this season and has six RBI and eight runs scored across 11 games. Meadows is still seeking his first home run in a Detroit uniform, but that should come soon enough if he keeps making solid contact at the plate.

Robbie Grossman - Sets table in blowout win Grossman went 3-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and two runs scored in a win over the Rockies in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader.

Impact Grossman set the table for an easy 13-0 Tigers win, and he's now scored five times this season across 10 games. The veteran outfielder isn't particularly flashy, but he should be able to post useful fantasy numbers if he continues to bat leadoff for an improved Detroit lineup.

Spencer Torkelson - Homers in big win Saturday Torkelson went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run and two runs scored in a win over the Rockies in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader.

Impact Torkelson connected for his third home run of the season in the first inning with two runners on, helping lead the Tigers to an easy 13-0 win. The rookie got off to a slow start but is starting to get going, and his OPS is up to .849 for the season. He should continue to post solid numbers as he gets more comfortable with MLB pitching.

Miguel Cabrera - Reaches milestone in easy win Cabrera went 2-for-4 with a run scored and two RBI in a 13-0 win over the Rockies in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader.

Impact Cabrera made history in the first inning, when his single against Colorado starter Antonio Senzatela gave him 3,000 for his storied career. The veteran slugger became just the seventh player in MLB history with 3,000 hits and 500 home runs. Cabrera is no longer the dominant force he once was, though he does have a solid .326 batting average so far this season, giving him some fantasy utility in deep leagues.

Alex Faedo - Transferred to Triple-A Faedo was transferred from High-A Lakeland to Triple-A Toledo on Saturday.

Impact Faedo started the 2022 season with Lakeland to build up his pitch count, as he had not thrown in affiliated ball since 2019 after undergoing Tommy John surgery. He worked 10.2 innings with a 12:3 K:BB at the level prior to his promotion, and he threw four innings in his latest outing. If Faedo performs well, it's possible he could reach the majors this season, but the Tigers will likely take a cautious approach given his injury history.
