Tarik Skubal

DET Starting Pitcher #29

Tarik Skubal allowed three hits and one run with seven strikeouts across five innings in a 4-2 win over the Royals on Wednesday.

Skubal is putting the finishing touches on his Cy Young campaign while miraculously leading the Tigers towards an unlikely playoff berth as one of just two full-time starters in their rotation. He wasn’t his sharpest here, but held Kansas City scoreless after the first inning and forced 18 swings-and-misses as his fastball and changeup were simply too much to handle. This win pushed his total to 17 on the season, tying Chris Sale for the league lead. He’s scheduled to face the Rays’ paltry lineup in his next start.
Will Vest

DET Relief Pitcher #19

Will Vest retired the only two batters he faced with one strikeout to earn a save over the Royals on Wednesday.

Usually a fireman, Vest came on to close this one out because Jason Foley and Tyler Holton have combined to pitch 6 2/3 innings over the past three days and were both unavailable in this one. Such is life when you’re winning every game you play and knocking on the door of a playoff spot. All three of these Tigers’ relievers are valuable in leagues that count holds, but Foley is still their go-to guy for saves.
Riley Greene

DET Center Fielder #31

Riley Greene went 1-for-5 with a solo home run on Wednesday against the Royals.

Greene is having his moment. This homer gave the Tigers an early lead they would not relinquish and was his fourth in a week as he’s fueling the Tigers’ shocking postseason push. His OPS is up to .963 this month and is quietly cementing himself as the middle-of-the-order power bat we all hoped he’d blossom into.
Colt Keith

DET Second Baseman #33

Colt Keith is out of the lineup Wednesday because of the shoulder injury he suffered last night.

Keith tested the shoulder on the field before the game, but it seemed he wasn’t quite ready for game action. Zach McKinstry is playing second base tonight.
Tomas Nido

DET Catcher #6

Tigers signed Tomás Nido to a minor-league contract.

Nido was released by the Cubs at the end of August, and it took a bit to find his new home. The 30-year-old will just be organizational depth, and if the Tigers sneak into the postseason, he won’t be eligible as he joined the team after August 31.
Matt Manning

DET Starting Pitcher #25

Matt Manning gave up one run in three innings for Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday.

It was Manning’s second start back from a lat strain that had sidelined him since mid-July. It’s unlikely that he’ll rejoin the Tigers before the end of the season, and he could be a trade candidate this winter. Still, it’s not like the Tigers need to move him; since he spent so much of this year in the minors, he’ll miss out on qualifying for arbitration and make something close to the major league minimum again next year.
Parker Meadows

DET Center Fielder #22

Parker Meadows went 2-for-4 and delivered the go-ahead hit in the 10th as the Tigers topped the Royals 3-1 on Tuesday.

The Tigers are now 24-10 in their last 34 games. Meadows hit ninth tonight because the Royals were throwing a lefty, but he managed a double off Cole Ragans. The go-ahead hit against Lucas Erceg was soft fly to center that dropped in front of Tommy Pham. Meadows should be back in the leadoff spot Wednesday versus Alec Marsh.
Casey Mize

DET Starting Pitcher #12

Casey Mize allowed one run over 4 1/3 innings before departing Tuesday against the Royals.

Mize is supposed to be building up, but since he completed six innings in his return from the IL on Aug. 30, his innings pitched have decreased with each subsequent start; he got 16 outs on Sept. 5, 14 last time out and 13 tonight. The quick hook was a necessity, given that he allowed six hits and walked four. Shelby Miller stranded the bases loaded after replacing him in the fifth.
Jason Foley

DET Relief Pitcher #68

Jason Foley picked up his 25th save with a perfect 10th against the Royals on Tuesday.

Tyler Holton got the win for working hitless eighth and ninth innings. Holton is clearly the reliever the Tigers trust most and rightfully so, but Foley continues to get most of the saves. He has 10 in 16 appearances since Aug. 15.
Colt Keith

DET Second Baseman #33

Colt Keith said he hurt his shoulder on a diving attempt, according to Cody Stavenhagen of the Athletic.

Keith stayed in the game for another inning and a half after he hurt his shoulder, but pulled himself out of the contest because he didn’t feel he could throw at full strength. Keith will have more testing done, but the Tigers are hopeful he avoided a serious injury.
