@coachbelf I'm not sure, either. He's effective when spotted properly. But, they have too many guys struggling not to try.

Tuiasosopo's role may expand beyond pinch-hitting, platooning
opoutofleftfield.blogspot.com — A minor-league free agent signed over the offseason, Matt Tuiasosopo has done everything asked of him, including pinch hit. And done it well. His two-run pinch-hit double in the sixth inning was just the latest example. He's now 3-for-10 with six RBI in pinch-hit situations, his three hits all for extra bases - two doubles and a home run.

.@catswithbats @mkt32296 Worth was just activated from DL, has played five games with Toledo since, hitting .417.

Garcia sent back to Toledo to make room for Alvarez's return
opoutofleftfield.blogspot.com — DETROIT - Avisail Garcia used to be the new Miguel Cabrera. Now, he's the new Danny Worth. Like Worth, who spent the 2012 season shuttling up and down I-75, back and forth from the Detroit Tigers to their top farm team in Toledo nine times, Garcia is well on his way to matching that.
@_MattCM Nah. 'Tonight' is just the standard answer. I found it amusing, too, though

@63_DTiger Probably in 24 hours. Won't guarantee anything beyond that.
Leyland said Valverde needed to pitch after 3 days off: "I think he threw one good split and a bunch of them that weren’t too good." #Tigers
