The Tigers' outfield is suffering from injuries, with Matt Vierling sidelined due to a rotator cuff strain and Parker Meadows dealing with a nerve issue in his upper arm, preventing him from throwing. Manager A.J. Hinch indicated that Meadows is not ready for games but may improve soon. Wenceel Pérez is battling back tightness, complicating the situation further. Riley Greene may take one outfield spot, while Kerry Carpenter and others could fill in. These injuries raise questions about the team's depth ahead of the season opener.
"He's not full go," manager A.J. Hinch said today. "He's just making incremental steps, whatever that means. And he's not ready for games."
Meadows still hasn’t been cleared to throw, which obviously means he can’t play, though he has been doing some other activities that don’t involve throwing.
