| Sanchez loses no-hit bid in 9th, Tigers beat Twins |
|---|
DETROIT (AP) Add another near miss in this 2013 baseball season - this time it was Detroit's Anibal Sanchez falling just short of a no-hitter. Sanchez's bid was broken up with one out in the ninth inning Friday night when Minnesota's Joe Mauer hit a clean single up the middle. That was the only hit the right-hander allowed in the Tigers' 6-0 victory over the Twins. |

Player News

Mauer has singled with one out in the ninth for the first hit against Sanchez on Friday. Bidding for his second career no-hitter, Sanchez allowed only that hit, struck out 12 and walked three to earn the complete-game 6-0 win over Minnesota. |
|
Don Kelly belted a two-run homer on Friday, providing more than enough support for Anibal Sanchez and helping to lead the Tigers to a 6-0 victory over the Twins. The third inning blast off Samuel Deduno was his only hit in four trips to the plate on the night. Through his first 66 at-bats on the season, he's hitting a paltry .197/.274/.348 with a pair of homers and six RBI. He shouldn't be owned anywhere but the very deepest of AL-only leagues. |
|
Fielder went 2 for 5 with two RBIs in Thursday's 7-6 win over Minnesota. Fielder is batting .333 with eight RBIs over a five-game hitting streak. |
|
Cabrera went 2 for 3 with another homer and three RBIs in Thursday's 7-6 win over Minnesota. Cabrera has now gone deep in four straight games, leaving the yard a combined six times over that stretch. He's hitting .486 with 15 RBIs during a nine-game hitting streak. |
|
Jose Valverde worked a scoreless ninth inning against the Twins on Thursday, striking out two and earning his fifth save of the season. Papa Grande -- unwanted by 30 teams a month and a half ago -- has been lethal out of the back end of Detroit's bullpen. Through 11 innings, he has a 0.82 ERA, 0.55 WHIP and 10/4 K/BB rate. He's only given up two hits and one run. |

Mauer has singled with one out in the ninth for the first hit against Sanchez on Friday. Bidding for his second career no-hitter, Sanchez allowed only that hit, struck out 12 and walked three to earn the complete-game 6-0 win over Minnesota.
Anibal Sanchez twirled an absolute gem against the Twins on Friday, surrendering just one hit and three walks while striking out 12 over nine shutout innings. He carried his no-hitter into the ninth inning, where a one-out single from Joe Mauer spoiled the memorable night. He was in complete command on the evening, at one point retiring 18 consecutive hitters. He was making a bid for his second career no-hitter, already having turned the feat against the Diamondbacks on September 6, 2006. Sanchez been absolutely dynamite for the Tigers and fantasy owners alike this season, compiling a 5-4 record, 2.38 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 80/17 K/BB ratio over his first 64 1/3 innings. He'll look to follow up with an encore performance when he takes on the Pirates in Pittsburgh on Wednesday.
Don Kelly belted a two-run homer on Friday, providing more than enough support for Anibal Sanchez and helping to lead the Tigers to a 6-0 victory over the Twins. The third inning blast off Samuel Deduno was his only hit in four trips to the plate on the night. Through his first 66 at-bats on the season, he's hitting a paltry .197/.274/.348 with a pair of homers and six RBI. He shouldn't be owned anywhere but the very deepest of AL-only leagues.
Fielder went 2 for 5 with two RBIs in Thursday's 7-6 win over Minnesota. Fielder is batting .333 with eight RBIs over a five-game hitting streak.
Cabrera went 2 for 3 with another homer and three RBIs in Thursday's 7-6 win over Minnesota. Cabrera has now gone deep in four straight games, leaving the yard a combined six times over that stretch. He's hitting .486 with 15 RBIs during a nine-game hitting streak.
Jose Valverde worked a scoreless ninth inning against the Twins on Thursday, striking out two and earning his fifth save of the season. Papa Grande -- unwanted by 30 teams a month and a half ago -- has been lethal out of the back end of Detroit's bullpen. Through 11 innings, he has a 0.82 ERA, 0.55 WHIP and 10/4 K/BB rate. He's only given up two hits and one run.
Rick Porcello was chased by the Twins for five runs on 10 hits over five innings Thursday, but escaped with a no-decision when Detroit mounted a late comeback. He struck out two and walked one. Porcello was 0-2 with an 11.08 ERA on April 20 before a solid four-game stretch lowered his earned run average to 5.92. It's back up to 6.28, courtesy of the toothless Minnesota offense. Gamble on Porcello at your own risk Tuesday, when he has a date against the Pirates.
Miguel Cabrera continued to torment major league pitching Thursday, going 2-for-3 with another homer in a comeback win against the Twins. He also walked twice. Now on a four-game home run streak, Cabrera is 9-for-15 (.600) with five walks, a double, six homers, 13 RBI and nine runs during that stretch. He's first in the AL in batting average (.391), second in homers (14), and first in RBI (55), runs (39), slugging percentage (.701) and OPS (1.168). He's only eighth in walks (25) at the moment, but he'll be gifted plenty more of those as teams realize it's an awful idea to throw Cabrera a hittable pitch at the moment.
Octavio Dotel (elbow) threw a bullpen session Thursday. It's the first time he's thrown from the bump since being shut down over the last week. Dotel will eventually need a rehab assignment, but it's not clear when it will begin. He'll likely return sometime next month if all goes well.
Peralta had two hits as the Detroit Tigers beat the Cleveland Indians 11-7 on Wednesday night. Peralta doesn't usually stick it to his former team with a .222 average as a visitor to Cleveland.
Dirks had two hits as the Detroit Tigers beat the Cleveland Indians 11-7 on Wednesday night. Dirks went 4 for 10 in the series for the Tribe.
Hunter had two hits as the Detroit Tigers beat the Cleveland Indians 11-7 on Wednesday night. Hunter continues to roll along in fantasy play with a .313 average.
Pena had three hits as the Detroit Tigers beat the Cleveland Indians 11-7 on Wednesday night. Pena is hitting .304 in 14 games.
Cabrera hit another homer - maybe the luckiest of his career - as the Detroit Tigers beat the Cleveland Indians 11-7 on Wednesday night. The shot to right-center was helped over the wall by center fielder Michael Bourn, who ran back to the warning track and was in position to make the catch but had the ball bounce out of his glove and into the stands. Cabrera drove in three runs and is hitting .387 on the year.
Verlander returned to the mound after sitting through a 62-minute rain delay to get his fifth win as the Detroit Tigers beat the Cleveland Indians 11-7 on Wednesday night. Verlander is 5-4 with a 3.66 ERA with 66 strikeouts on the year.
Austin Jackson (hamstring) is unlikely be activated from the disabled list when he's eligible Monday. Jackson landed on the disabled list earlier this month with a strained left hamstring, but we haven't heard much about his progress. That's probably because there's little to update, as Chris Iott of MLive.com hears that he isn't currently doing any physical activity. Fantasy owners will have to hope that changes real soon.
Brayan Pena went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in the Tigers' 11-7 victory over the Indians on Wednesday. Pena doesn't play much -- Wednesday was just his 14th game of the year -- but when he does, he usually hits. His three-hit game raised his average to .304, and with starting catcher Alex Avila struggling it may mean more at-bats for Pena in the near future.
Justin Verlander allowed five runs over five innings but earned the win Wednesday as the Tigers beat the Indians. Verlander had to work for his fifth win, needing 110 pitches to get through five. He gave up 10 hits, including a home run, but was aided by his team putting up nine runs in the same span. It marks the third-straight start in which Verlander has been less-than-great, seeing his ERA rise from 1.55 to 3.66 since May 5. There's still little reason to worry, though, and he'll take the mound again Monday against the Pirates.
Scherzer held the Indians to one run on two hits over eight innings in the Tigers' 5-1 win on Tuesday. Scherzer's lights-out performance improved him to 6-0 with a 3.61 ERA. He's struck out 75 batters over 62 1-3 innings.
Martinez was 3 for 5 in the Tigers' 5-1 win against the Indians on Tuesday. Though Martinez is hitting a career-low .221, it was his third three-hit game of the season.
Max Scherzer dominated the Indians over eight innings Tuesday, allowing just one run in the Tigers' 5-1 victory. Scherzer allowed just two hits on the evening, striking out seven. After a first-inning run, the right-hander kept the Indians under wraps. The win moved him to 6-0 on the year, and he's got a 3.61 ERA and 0.91 WHIP through nine starts. His next start will come Sunday against the Twins.
Miguel Cabrera hit his 12th home run of the season Tuesday in the Tigers' win over the Indians. The home run raised his RBI total to a ridiculous 49, and he's now hitting .384/.455/.667 on the season. A Triple Crown is a rare feat, but Cabrera may actually be an odds-on favorite to repeat this year with how he's hitting.
Andy Dirks went 2-for-5 with a home run as the Tigers beat the Indians on Tuesday. The homer was Dirks' fifth, and he drove in two runs on the night. What's more, the outfielder batted leadoff ahead of Torii Hunter and Miguel Cabrera. It's likely temporary until Austin Jackson returns, but if Dirks can continue to get on base he should be in line to score plenty of runs in his new lineup spot.
Octavio Dotel (elbow) has resumed throwing. Dotel was given medication and shut down for six days after Dr. James Andrews determined earlier this month that he had no structural damage in his right elbow. The righty will eventually head out on a rehab assignment, though it's unclear when that will happen. He should return sometime next month if he can avoid setbacks.
Cabrera went 4 for 4 with three homers, five RBIs and four runs in an 11-8 loss at Texas Cabrera, who led the majors with 44 homers and 139 RBIs and hit an AL-best .330 last year, posted eight, 34 and a .308 average through his first 42 games. The reigning AL MVP, in comparison, is batting a major league-leading .387 with 11 homers and 47 RBIs for the Tigers (23-19) thus far.
Tigers recalled RHP Luke Putkonen from Triple-A Toledo. Putkonen will provide some needed depth for the Detroit bullpen, which got heavy use this weekend in Texas. The right-hander will operate as a mid-to-long reliever.
Tigers optioned RHP Evan Reed to Triple-A Toledo. Reed allowed four hits and one earned run in four relief innings during his short stay with Detroit. The right-hander will probably get another try later this summer.
Cabrera has hit three home runs in a game for the second time in his career. The 2012 AL Triple Crown winner hit a three-run homer in the third inning and a solo shot in the fifth against Texas left-hander Derek Holland on Sunday night. He went deep again with nobody on base in the eighth inning against Rangers reliever Tanner Scheppers. Cabrera, who leads the AL in average and RBIs, also had a single. He was walked intentionally in the sixth inning even though the Tigers already had runners at first and second.
Miguel Cabrera went 4-for-4 with three home runs and five RBI in Sunday night's loss to the Rangers. Cabrera launched a three-run homer in the third inning and a solo shot in the fifth off Derek Holland before he added a third home run late off Tanner Scheppers. The weather conditions at Arlington obviously played a factor, but it was a monster of a performance. Cabrera is currently on track to have a better season than his Triple Crown winning campaign in 2012. He has 11 home runs and leads the American League in batting average (.387), runs (34), and slugging-percentage (.659).
Doug Fister was knocked around for five earned runs on nine hits over 4 2/3 innings in a loss on Sunday night against the Rangers. Fister worked up a high pitch count early and had to be pulled after giving up four runs in a disastrous fifth inning. It was his first non-quality start this season and just his second loss. Fister will take a 3.62 ERA and 1.26 WHIP into a matchup with the Twins on Friday.
Texas roughed up Anibal Sanchez in a 7-2 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Saturday night. Sanchez (4-4) gave up a season-high six runs in 2 2-3 innings, his shortest start in almost two years. The right-hander yielded nine hits, walked two and struck out two as his ERA jumped from 2.05 to 2.77.
Anibal Sanchez was rocked for six runs -- five earned -- in 2 2/3 innings Saturday in a loss to the Rangers. It was a rare off outing for the right-hander, who had been ace-like all season. He coughed up nine hits and issued two walks, and the dangerous Texas offense was able to turn scoring chances into runs. Sanchez still has a 2.77 ERA and 1.23 WHIP on the year and should bounce back next week against the light-hitting Twins.
Porcello had another solid performance in Detroit's 2-1 win over Texas on Friday night. Porcello (2-2, 5.92 ERA) allowed one run and five hits in 5 2-3 innings with six strikeouts and a walk. He's 2-0 with a 3.24 ERA in four starts since giving up nine runs in two-thirds of an inning April 20 against the Los Angeles Angels.
Miguel Cabrera went 3 for 4 with a go-ahead double in the sixth inning to back Rick Porcello and lift the Detroit Tigers over the Texas Rangers 2-1 Friday night in a matchup of division leaders. Cabrera, hitting .509 (27 for 53) with runners in scoring position, lined an 0-1 pitch off the wall in left field near the out of town scoreboard for his AL-leading 42nd RBI.
Miguel Cabrera went 3-for-4 with an RBI double and a run scored, leading the Tigers to a 2-1 victory over the Rangers in Arlington on Friday. It marked the sixth time already this season that Cabrera has had at least three hits in a game. It's hard to believe, but he's off to an even better start than he was at this point of the season during his Triple Crown winning campaign in 2012. He'll head into play on Saturday hitting a cool .376/.447/.606 with eight homers and 42 RBI.
Jose Valverde shut the Rangers down in the ninth inning on Friday, preserving a one-run lead and earning his fourth save of the season. He did surrender a one-out walk, but was able to avoid further damage. It was a nice bounceback effort for the veteran closer, as he blew his first save of the season in his last opportunity against the Indians on Sunday. Despite missing all of spring training, he has looked relatively sharp in the early going, converting four of his five save chances while compiling a 1.13 ERA and 0.62 WHIP.
Rick Porcello was impressive in Friday's victory over the Rangers, allowing only one run on five hits over 5 2/3 innings. Porcello uncharacteristically punched out six on the evening while allowing only one walk. The only damage against him on the evening was a solo homer off the bat of Geovany Soto in the fifth inning. After a brutal beginning to the season, the 24-year-old right-hander has rebounded nicely, posting four consecutive quality starts. He'll look to extend that streak to five when he takes on the Twins at home on Thursday.
Tigers prospect left-hander Casey Crosby was placed on the 7-day disabled list with Triple-A due to a left shoulder impingement. Crosby felt some soreness during his recent start and will now get some extended rest. The 24-year-old southpaw has really struggled this season, posting an ugly 5.30 ERA and 39/28 K/BB ratio in 37 1/3 innings through eight starts.
Joaquin Benoit hasn't allowed a run since April 27. One of the league's most underrated relievers, Benoit's career took off when he was no longer asked to start. Unfortunately, he's never been given an opportunity to close. Despite having clearly been Detroit's best bullpen option over the last three years, he's notched just six saves when Jose Valverde has needed a break. Benoit owns a 1.50 ERA and 0.94 WHIP through 18 innings. In holds leagues, he's an asset.
Justin Verlander was torched for eight runs in 2 2/3 innings by the Rangers on Thursday. It was stunning to see Verlander melt down, even in light of his poor outing last time out against the Indians (4 R, 3 ER, 5 BB in 5 IP). He hit a batter and issued two walks with the bases loaded in the third inning tonight before Geovany Soto hit a three-run homer to knock him out of the game. The seven-run inning was the worst of his career, and he tied his career high by allowing eight runs overall. It was his shortest outing in three years. Verlander's velocity is actually better than it was last month, and it's not like he's totally lost his command. This will likely just prove to be a bump in the road.
Entering play on Thursday, Prince Fielder was hitting just .229 in May. Over 13 games this month, the mammoth slugger has posted a pedestrian (for him, at least) .229/.383/.417 triple slash. With 11 of those games against the Astros, Twins and Indians, Fielder owners were surely looking for more fantasy production. Since posting a 1.009 OPS in the season's opening month, pitchers are tap dancing around Fielder, walking him 13 times (including three HBPs and one IBB) in 60 May plate appearances. He leads the American League in walks and times on base.
Tuiasosopo tied a career high with three hits and drove in a run in the Tigers' 7-5 loss to Houston on Wednesday. Tuiasosopo is batting .375 in 24 games this season and .407 (11 for 27) with 11 RBIs in his past 12 contests.
The Detroit Tigers have optioned right-hander Al Alburquerque to Triple-A Toledo and recalled right-hander Evan Reed. The 27-year-old Reed has never pitched in the major leagues. He's gone 0-1 with a 3.00 ERA with Toledo this season. The Tigers claimed him from the Miami Marlins in April.
The Detroit Tigers have optioned right-hander Al Alburquerque to Triple-A Toledo and recalled right-hander Evan Reed. Alburquerque has struggled with his control, and took the loss in Wednesday's game against Houston, leaving manager Jim Leyland frustrated. The 24-year-old has struck out 26 in 14 1-3 innings this year, but he's also walked 13 and thrown six wild pitches.
Tigers recalled RHP Evan Reed from Triple-A Toledo. Reed has posted a 3.00 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 28/7 K/BB ratio in 21 innings this season at the Triple-A level. He should do well in a middle relief role for Detroit.
Tigers optioned RHP Al Alburquerque to Triple-A Toledo. Alburquerque was sporting a 3.14 ERA in 14 1/3 total innings for Detroit but had allowed a run in each of his last three appearances. The Tigers want him to work on his command against a lower level of competition.
Matt Tuiasosopo went 3-for-3 with an RBI before being removed for pinch-hitter Don Kelly in the ninth against the Astros. Yes, that's just as screwed up as it sounds. Tuiasosopo only starts against lefties, but he entered the day 6-for-14 with two homers and two doubles against right-handed pitchers this year. Yet for some reason manager Jim Leyland thought a .213-hitting Don Kelly was a better option against Jose Veras in the ninth inning. Kelly grounded out, and the Tigers went on to lose.
Avisail Garcia hit his first major league homer Wednesday off the Astros' Dallas Keuchel. Garcia has faced better pitchers in Triple-A, but that doesn't make it count any less in the stats. Garcia is worth playing in AL-only leagues with Austin Jackson out.
Martinez had two hits Tuesday in a 6-2 win over the Astros. Martinez owns a career-low .594 OPS and although he will improve, it's hard to see him becoming a major 2013 fantasy factor.
Cabrera had two hits Tuesday in a 6-2 win over the Astros. Cabrera hit his third homer against Houston this year. He has dominated them, going 10 for 24.
Alex Avila is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Astros. The struggling backstop will take a seat with the day game after the night game. Brayan Pena will start behind the plate.
Doug Fister allowed two runs in seven innings as the Tigers beat the Astros 6-2 on Tuesday. Fister had just one glitch on the night, allowing three hits to begin the second inning before settling down and holding the Astros scoreless for the rest of the night. His control was on point as well, as he struck out seven while not walking a batter. There's the usual caveat that "it's the Astros," but Fister is now 5-1 with a 3.06 ERA through eight starts. He'll toe the slab next against the Rangers on Sunday.
Jose Valverde rebounded from his first blown save of the season to pitch a scoreless ninth inning against the Astros on Tuesday. It wasn't a save situation and it was against the Astros, after all, but it was still a positive sign for the right-hander. He struck out two in the outing, his first since blowing the save against the Indians on Sunday. He's still the Tigers closer going forward.
Miguel Cabrera went 2-for-3 with his eighth home run of the season as the Tigers beat the Astros on Tuesday. The home run was just a solo shot, so Cabrera only has 41 RBI to show for himself through May 14. He also doubled in the game, and he's hitting .375 on the year. There's nothing to say about the slugger that hasn't already been said. He's simply the best in the game right now.
Martinez hit a two-run homer during Monday's 7-2 win over Houston. Martinez is just 3 for his last 18, but hopefully he can build on Monday's effort. The veteran DH is hitting .213 on the season.
Dirks went 3 for 4 with a grand slam during Monday's 7-2 win over Houston. Dirks is batting .387 with three long balls, eight runs scored and seven RBIs over his last eight games.
Sanchez allowed two runs, six hits and struck out eight over seven innings, earning the win during Monday's 7-2 victory over Houston. Sanchez has now fanned a whopping 42 over his last four starts spanning 27 innings. He's fanned 66 on the season to rank third in the majors.
Drew Smyly has a 1.93 ERA and 24/6 K/BB ratio over 23 1/3 innings this season. There's no room for Smyly in the Tigers' rotation, so he has pitched exclusively out of the bullpen. The 23-year-old had seven straight scoreless appearances before he gave up two runs on three hits and a walk during his most recent appearance on Saturday against the Indians. There's no immediate plan to change his role, but he would have some value in mixed leagues if he gets a chance in the rotation at some point.
Anibal Sanchez pitched the Tigers past the Astros by allowing two runs in seven innings and striking out eight on Monday. Sanchez still hasn't allowed more than three runs in any of his eight starts this season. Unfortunately, his run support hasn't been nearly so consistent. Tonight's game was the fourth in which the Tigers have scored seven or more runs in his outings. Of course, Sanchez has gotten wins in all of those. On the other hand, the Tigers have scored a total of six runs in his other four starts, resulting in three losses and a no-decision for the right-hander.
Andy Dirks went 3-for-4 and hit his first career grand slam Monday versus the Astros. If Avisail Garcia stays half as hot in the majors as he was in the minors, then a left field controversy could bloom when Austin Jackson is ready to return. Dirks, though, deserves to keep his spot against right-handers. He's hitting .317 with three homers and seven RBI in May after his rough April.
Victor Martinez hit a two-run homer off Houston's Bud Norris in the Tigers' victory Monday. Martinez still isn't hitting for average, but at least he's come through with two homers and eight RBI in 11 games so far this month. He figures to improve as the season goes along.
Tigers manager Jim Leyland said Monday that he will not use Torii Hunter in place of Austin Jackson (hamstring) in center field. Hunter has only appeared in one game in center field since the start of 2011, so the Tigers want to keep him where he's comfortable in right field. Leyland plans to rely on a combination of Don Kelly, Andy Dirks and Avisail Garcia to fill in. Kelly is making the start there Monday night, but Garcia is likely to get most of the playing time.
Cabrera was 2 for 4 Sunday in Detroit's 4-3 loss to Cleveland, extending his hitting streak to 11 games. Cabrera is hitting .404 during the streak with four home runs and 14 RBIs, and still a scorching .379 on the season.
Garcia was recalled from Triple-A Toledo by the Tigers on Monday after they placed Austin Jackson on the 15-day disabled list. Garcia hit .319 in 23 games toward the end of last season for Detroit, earning a post on the postseason roster.
Jackson was placed on the 15-day disabled list by the Tigers Monday with the move retroactive to Sunday. Jackson is out with a pulled right hamstring. The Tigers recalled outfielder Avisail Garcia from Triple-A to help in his absence.
Tigers recalled OF Avisail Garcia from Triple-A Toledo. Garcia is replacing Austin Jackson, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list Monday with a strained hamstring. Garcia has been on a tear recently at Triple-A Toledo and is expected to get regular at-bats while Jackson is out. The 21-year-old can play all three outfield positions and is worth a try in AL-only fantasy formats.
Tigers placed OF Austin Jackson on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left hamstring. Jackson is expected to need the full 15 days. Avisail Garcia was called up from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding roster move and will get regular playing time in the Detroit outfield over the next two-plus weeks. Jackson was batting .272/.333/.371 with two homers, 11 RBI, five stolen bases and 33 runs scored in 34 games.
Avisail Garcia is not on the travel roster for Triple-A Toledo and is likely headed to Detroit. Garcia is 16-for-37 with a double, a home run and four RBI over his last eight games for the Mud Hens. He could see starts in left field with the Tigers in place of Andy Dirks, who is batting just .239/.330/.370 in 29 games. Garcia may carry some value in AL-only leagues.
Verlander gave up four runs - three earned - six hits and a season-high five walks over an uncharacteristic five innings in Detroit's 7-6 loss to Cleveland on Saturday. It was the first time since Aug. 17, 2010, that Verlander issued five walks in a game.
Peralta extended his hitting streak to 10 games with his third home run of the season Saturday in Detroit's 7-6 loss to Cleveland. Peralta is 15 for 38 (.395) with five RBIs over the last 10 contests.
Jose Valverde suffered his first blown save of the season Sunday, coughing up a one-run lead in a loss to the Indians. After walking Michael Bourn to start the inning and then watching him steal second, Valverde rebounded with a strikeout and a flyout. He then issued another walk to Jason Giambi, though, and Michael Brantley tied things up with a solid single to left field. Valverde owners will no doubt be thinking bad thoughts, but Brantley's hit is the lone base knock Papa Grande has given up in six appearances this season. He still has a good amount of job security at the moment.
Rick Porcello held the Indians to two runs over six innings Sunday but took a no-decision. He gave up just four hits, walked a pair and struck out six. Porcello was in line for his second win of the season, but Jose Valverde coughed up the lead in the ninth and the Tigers lost in extra innings. The right still has an ugly 6.68 ERA for the season but has put together three straight quality starts since last month's disaster in Anaheim. He gets the Rangers on the road next.
Brayan Pe¤a went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer in Sunday's loss to the Indians. It's actually the second straight time he's homered in a game he started, though his last start was a week ago. Pe¤a is now batting .256 with the pair of longballs over 11 games this season.
Austin Jackson is not in the Tigers' lineup Sunday. Alex Avila is also getting a day off. Don Kelly is handling center field and Brayan Pena is behind the dish for the Tigers on Sunday.
Justin Verlander struggled in Saturday's loss to the Indians, allowing four runs and six hits in five frames. Verlander did strike out seven, but he needed 110 pitches to get through five innings of work. His usual pinpoint control was severely lacking in this one, as he issued five walks, including a free pass to Jason Giambi with the bases loaded in the first inning. Verlander still sits at 4-3 on the season with a 2.10 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 57/18 K/BB ratio over 51 1/3 innings. He will try to bounce back when he takes on the Rangers in Arlington on Thursday.
Jhonny Peralta hit his third home run of the season in a losing effort against the Indians on Saturday. Peralta finished the night 1-for-2 with a pair of walks and two runs scored. The shortstop is now batting .325/.379/.460 with three homers and 17 RBI, and appears poised to bounce back nicely from his down 2012.
Dirks had two hits Friday in a 10-4 win over the Tribe. Dirks is hitting .244 and is not much of a fantasy threat.
Peralta had two hits Friday in a 10-4 win over the Tribe. Peralta is red-hot with 11 hits in 25 at-bats in this sizzling stretch.
Avila had two hits Friday in a 10-4 win over the Tribe. Avila also drove in three runs in a solid effort - especially for a .202 hitter.
Infante matched a season high with three hits Friday in a 10-4 win over the Tribe. Infante is hitting .387 over his last 15 games and could represent a shrewd fantasy pick-up.
Cabrera raked once again Friday in a 10-4 win over the Tribe. Cabrera went 2 for 3 with a three-run jack and is simply crushing the hardball.
Scherzer took advantage of more great run support Friday in a 10-4 win over the Tribe. Scherzer moved to 5-0 as he allowed four runs and five hits in eight innings. He struck out seven without a walk. He leads he majors with 8.94 runs of support on average.
Octavio Dotel visited Dr. James Andrews for a second opinion on his injured right elbow. The bad news is Dotel still isn't feeling quite right, but the good news is Dr. Andrews found no structural damage. Dotel will rest for six days before attempting to resume his throwing program. He's out indefinitely.
Tigers activated LHP Phil Coke from the 15-day disabled list. Coke was placed on the DL on May 1 with a strained left groin, but returns to the Tigers' bullpen as soon as he's eligible to do so. Luke Putkonen was optioned to Triple-A to make room for him on the active roster. The 30-year-old lefty has been highly ineffective in his first nine appearances, posting an 0-3 record, 8.31 ERA and 1.50 WHIP.
Tigers optioned RHP Luke Putkonen from Triple-A Toledo. Putkonen was sent out to make room for Phil Coke who was activated from the disabled list. He appeared in two games during his brief callup, going 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 4/2 K/BB ratio over 2 2/3 innings. He'll likely return to see more action in the Tigers' bullpen at some point in the 2013 season.
Miguel Cabrera blasted a three run homer, powering the Tigers to a 10-4 victory over the Indians on Friday. Cabrera also doubled, finishing 2-for-5 on the night. The AL's reigning triple crown winner is off to an even better start in 2013, hitting .382/.455/.618 with seven homers and 40 RBI through his first 33 games. His remarkable production and consistency from year to year are the exact reasons why many selected Cabrera first overall in their fantasy drafts and are now reaping the rewards.
Max Scherzer ran his record on the season to 5-0, allowing four runs on five hits over eight innings in Friday's victory over the Indians. The Indians made great use of their five baserunners on the evening, scratching out four runs against him. Scherzer has pitched incredibly well this season, posting a 3.61 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 61/9 K/BB ratio through his first 47 1/3 innings. He'll go in search of victory number six when he takes on the Rangers in Arlington on Thursday.
Infante matched a season high with three hits in Detroit's 5-4 loss to Washington on Thursday. Infante, batting .304, is 21 for 58 (.362) over his last 14 games.
Anibal Sanchez allowed three runs -- two earned -- over six innings as the Tigers lost to the Nationals on Wednesday. Six of the eight hits off Sanchez were singles, but the Nationals were able to push across enough to hand Sanchez his third loss of the season. He continued to rack up the strikeouts, fanning eight in his six innings. The right-hander now has 58 strikeouts in 45 2/3 innings this season. His next start comes Monday against the Astros, another favorable matchup for Sanchez.
Victor Martinez is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Nationals. The DH isn't available under National League rules, so V-Mart will take a seat. Fantasy owners should prepare themselves for the possibility that he'll also be out of the lineup Wednesday.
Dirks had a career high-tying four hits, including a home run, in Detroit's 9-0 rout of Houston on Sunday. It was the third career four-hit game for Dirks, who was batting .200 in his first 23 games this season.
Fielder had three hits, including a home run, and drove in four runs in Detroit's 9-0 rout of Houston on Sunday. The Tigers first baseman was batting .211 (8 for 38) with seven RBIs over his previous 11 games. He remains among the MLB leaders with 32 RBIs this season.
Verlander held Houston hitless until the seventh inning and the Detroit Tigers romped past the Astros 9-0 Sunday for a four-game sweep. Verlander (4-2) struck out nine and left after the seventh. The former AL MVP and Cy Young winner has a 1.55 ERA this season. Verlander came close to joining rare company. Only five pitchers in major league history have thrown three or more no-hitters: Nolan Ryan leads with seven, Sandy Koufax threw four and Bob Feller, Cy Young and 1880s pitcher Larry Corcoran each had three.
Phil Coke (groin) is expected to begin a minor league rehab assignment Monday with Triple-A Toledo. Coke recently threw a bullpen session without any issues, and likely won't need a lengthy rehab assignment. Assuming he avoids setbacks, he could return from the DL on Saturday when first eligible.
Cabrera was 4 for 4 with his fifth and sixth homers of the season in Detroit's 17-2 win over Houston on Saturday. Cabrera now has 28 career games with four or more hits, including three already this year.
Hunter was 4 for 5 and drove in two runs in Detroit's 17-2 blowout of Houston on Saturday. Hunter continues to make the Angels' choice to not extend him an offer in the offseason a regrettable one as he's hitting .361 with 16 RBIs in 27 games.
Martinez went 2 for 4 with a homer and four RBIs in Detroit's 17-2 rout of Houston on Saturday. Martinez is starting to drive the ball with six extra-base hits in his last 10 games. He had one through his first 18 contests.
Scherzer turned in arguably his best performance of the season Saturday, holding to Astros to a run, three hits and two walks over eight innings in Detroit's 17-2 romp. Scherzer also had eight strikeouts and is fanning batters at a career-high rate of 12.4 per nine innings pitched this season.
Andy Dirks went 4-for-4 with a home run in Sunday's win over the Astros. Dirks got off to a slow start, but it's looking like he's finally healthy after dealing with a lingering knee injury for most of the season. He'll need to continue to produce at a high level with Nick Castellanos waiting in the minors.
Justin Verlander threw seven scoreless innings Sunday against the Astros. Verlander didn't allow a hit through six innings before giving up a single to Carlos Pena. He gave up two walks and finished with nine strikeouts. Verlander is now 4-2 with a 1.55 ERA and 50/13 K/BB ratio in 47 innings this season. He'll get the Indians in his next start.
