Impact In an effort to limit the workloads of young starters Casey Mize, Tarik Skubal and Matt Manning down the stretch without shutting them down outright, the Tigers will employ a six-man rotation for the time being. The desire to build in an extra day of rest for the rotation members is likely a greater motivation for the Tigers than getting an extended look at Hutchison, a 30-year-old journeyman who was blasted for six runs (two earned) on five hits and three walks in 1.2 innings last weekend against Cleveland in his 2021 MLB debut. A road matchup against a Blue Jays lineup overflowing with power bats is unlikely to yield dramatically better results for Hutchison.
