Jonathan Schoop - Out Sunday, could go on ILSchoop (ankle) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.
ImpactThough Schoop has been adamant that his Grade 1 right ankle sprain isn't a major concern, he's not out of the woods for a potential stint on the injured list. According to Evan Woodbery of MLive.com, the Tigers will re-evaluate Schoop following Monday's off day before determining whether or not he's fit to return to the lineup Tuesday against the Giants, or if he'll need a more extended break. Willi Castro will spell Schoop at the keystone Sunday.

Andrew Velazquez - Hits homer in lossVelazquez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run Saturday in a loss to the Tigers.
ImpactVelazquez's second-inning solo shot gave the Angels a 2-0 lead, but the team scored only one more run the rest of the game. The homer was his first since June 28 -- a span of 35 games. Velazquez is slashing a paltry .184/.227/.277 this season, so he's a fantasy consideration only for those very desperate for steals, of which he has 13 in 14 attempts.
