Removed as precaution Manning (shoulder) was removed from Saturday's game against the Royals as a precaution, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact Manager A.J. Hinch told reporters that Manning "didn't look quite right" prior to being lifted from Saturday's start. Manning clarified by saying that he's not concerned about the injury and plans to make his next start, which tentatively lines up to come Friday at home against the Rockies. While it appears that Manning avoided the worst-case outcome, no official diagnosis has been announced.

Exits with right shoulder injury Manning was removed from Saturday's game against the Royals in the top of the third inning due to right shoulder discomfort, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
Impact Manning deflected a bouncer up the middle to end the second inning Saturday, although it's not yet clear whether that caused his injury. Prior to his departure, he allowed a run on five hits and no walks while striking out two in two innings. The severity of his injury isn't yet known, but if he's cleared to make his next turn through the rotation, he tentatively lines up to start at home against the Rockies on Friday.

Strong outing Monday Manning pitched six innings of one-run ball but did not factor into the decision in Monday's win over the Red Sox. He allowed just one hit and no walks, while striking out two.
Impact Manning was dialed in Monday, with his only mistake a J.D. Martinez solo home run in the fifth inning. The righty only logged 68 pitches, so he likely could have gone further, but it was also his first outing of the regular season so the Tigers didn't push him too far. Manning struggled last year with a 5.80 ERA and 1.51 WHIP across 18 starts, so it's encouraging to see a much better 2022 debut. The 24-year-old is slated to pitch again Saturday against the Royals.

Allows two home runs Saturday Manning allowed four runs (one earned) on five hits across three innings in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies. He didn't issue a walk and struck out three.
Impact It wasn't a great outing for Manning, as the righty allowed two home runs in his three innings of work, though a few Detroit errors made a lot of the damage unearned. Manning was better in his spring debut Monday, when he allowed just one hit across two scoreless innings. He should have a spot toward the back of the Tigers' rotation when the regular season begins.

Effective in spring debut Manning tossed two scoreless innings in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Blue Jays. He allowed one hit and struck out two.
Impact Manning should have a rotation spot locked up to begin the season, but the recent addition of Michael Pineda likely bumps the former to the No. 5 position. That means Manning could get skipped when the team has more off days, and he could always lose the spot if he doesn't pitch well. Tyler Alexander would seem to be the top candidate to supplant Manning at some point in the season. A strong spring could help Manning earn a little job security, though.

No. 4 starter to begin spring Manning will start the team's fourth Grapefruit League game Monday against the Blue Jays, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact Manning will follow Eduardo Rodriguez, Casey Mize and Tarik Skubal in the spring rotation, with Tyler Alexander slotting in fifth. This is what the rotation is expected to look like to begin the regular season as well. Manning struggled some during his MLB debut in 2021, posting a 5.80 ERA and 1.51 WHIP across 18 starts to go with a 57:33 K:BB. A good performance Monday would be a nice sign, but the 24-year-old will need to string together a few solid starts to really get the attention of fantasy managers.

Looks like No. 4 starter Manning looks to be the Tigers' No. 4 starter to begin the season, though the team is still looking to bolster its rotation before Opening Day, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact If the Tigers do add a starter before the season, it seems like Tyler Alexander would get bumped from the rotation before Manning. The latter isn't guaranteed to keep his spot all year, however, after struggling as a rookie in 2021. Manning recorded a 5.80 ERA and 1.51 WHIP across 18 starts to go with a 57:33 K:BB. A strong start to the 2022 campaign for the 24-year-old would certainly help his cause.
