Comerica Park, Detroit, MI

Andy Ibáñez - Goes to bench MondayIbanez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.

ImpactNick Maton will get the starting nod at second base in the series opener versus Minnesota, but Ibanez manned the keystone for each of the previous three games and appears to be Detroit's preferred option at the position. Ibanez closed the weekend series with the Rays with a pair of two-hit games and is now batting .288 since the All-Star break.

Javier Báez - Remains out MondayBaez (personal) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.

ImpactThe Tigers have yet to announce any roster moves ahead of Monday's series opener, but Baez could be placed on the bereavement list following the recent death of a family member. He had been included in the Tigers' initial lineups for both of the past two games, only to be scratched on both occasions on account of the personal matter. It's unclear if Baez is still with the team or if he's already left Detroit to be with his family.

Mason Englert - Resumes mound workEnglert (hip) has thrown three bullpen sessions since landing on the 15-day injured list July 24, MLB.com reports.

ImpactThough Englert isn't on track to return from the IL on Monday when first eligible, he at least hasn't been shut down from throwing as he works his way back from a sore left hip. Assuming he checked out fine after his most recent bullpen session Saturday, Englert could be cleared to face hitters early this week before potentially reporting to a minor-league affiliate for a brief rehab assignment.

Joey Wentz - Awarded another startWentz is slated to start Monday's game against the Twins at Comerica Park, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

ImpactThe young lefty will get at least one more turn through the rotation after he shined in a bulk-relief role his last time out July 29 in what was his first appearance in the big leagues in a month. In that appearance against the Marlins, Wentz struck out six over 4.2 scoreless innings while allowing four hits and one walk. The Tigers seem content to have Wentz pitch as a traditional starter Monday rather than out of the bullpen, an arrangement that could raise his innings floor but may work against him in qualifying for a win.
