Reaches four times in win Greene went 2-for-2 with a home run, a double, two runs scored, two walks and an RBI in a 4-0 win Sunday over the Angels.

Impact Greene planted Shohei Ohtani's first pitch into the seats in right and reached base safely in his other three plate appearances, scoring another run in the fourth. It was the 21-year-old's fourth homer as a big-leaguer. After striking out 30 times in his first 76 plate appearances in August, the rookie is 4-for-11 with two walks and no strikeouts over his last three contests.

Doubles, scores in loss Greene went 2-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Guardians.

Impact Greene led off once again and had a productive evening despite the Detroit offense struggling as a whole. The rookie is showing flashes, though he's also striking out 28.4 percent of the time, which isn't too surprising for a 21-year-old. Greene has immense talent, and he should continue to see ample playing time for the rebuilding Tigers, both down the stretch this year and in 2023. If he's able to cut down on the strikeouts and settle in a bit more at the plate, he could take off.

Records two hits, two RBI in win Greene went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 5-3 win over the Twins.

Impact Greene struck out in his other three at-bats, but he still had an impact from atop the order. The rookie is now batting .241 this season while striking out 28.7 percent of the time, so he's been having some growing pains. However, the 21-year-old is a big part of Detroit's future, so the Tigers should keep giving him regular playing time. Greene has the talent to pop for big games here and there, though fantasy managers need to show patience when he struggles.
