  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Hits first career grand slam

    Vierling went 1-for-3 with a grand slam, a walk, a second run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Reds. Vierling was hit by a pitch in his first at-bat and ended up coming around to score Detroit's first run of the game after stealing second. He later homered with the bases full in the bottom of the eighth to extend the Tigers' lead to seven runs, marking the first grand slam of his major-league career. He is up to nine home runs this season, which is one more than his total across his first two years in the league with the Phillies. He's batting .375 in September with two homers, seven RBI and 12 runs scored, while the stolen base was his first since July 4.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Hits grand slam Thursday

    Vierling went 1-for-3 with a walk, a grand slam and a second run scored in Thursday's win over the Reds. Vierling waited for the eighth inning to hit his grand slam, but it broke open what had been a 4-1 game. The utility player is up to nine home runs this season, which is one more than his total across his first two years in the league with the Phillies. Vierling hasn't been a great fantasy asset this season, though he should continue to see regular playing time down the stretch.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Absent from lineup

    Vierling (upper body) is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the White Sox. Vierling suffered an upper-body injury during Thursday's win over the Yankees, although it's possible he wasn't going to start this one anyway with the White Sox sending righty Mike Clevinger to the mound. Akil Baddoo, Parker Meadows and Kerry Carpenter will man the outfield for Detroit.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Exits with injury

    Vierling exited Thursday's game against the Yankees with an apparent upper-body injury, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. Vierling had a productive game prior to his exit, going 4-for-5 with two RBI and four runs scored. The exact nature of the injury is unclear, though he appeared to jam his shoulder diving into first base on a pickoff attempt in the eighth inning.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Three hits, triple in win

    Vierling went 3-for-5 with a triple, an RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's victory over the Twins. Vierling's been swinging a hot bat of late -- he's now hit safely in six straight games while going 14-for-41 (.341) over his last 10 contests. The 26-year-old Vierling has seen regular playing time with the Tigers this season, and he's been making the most of it. His slash line is up to .272/.330/.394 with seven homers, 37 runs scored, 27 RBI and five steals across 348 plate appearances this season.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Taking seat Tuesday

    Vierling is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Twins. The Tigers are opting to use Kerry Carpenter in right field and Miguel Cabrera at designated hitter versus right-hander Sonny Gray. Vierling has actually hit righties better than lefties this season, but nearly all his days off have come when Detroit has faced a right-handed starting pitcher.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Takes seat Monday

    Vierling is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Giants. Vierling will head to the bench for Monday's make-up game after he started in all three of the Tigers' contests with the Padres over the weekend while going a collective 2-for-12 at the dish. While Vierling rests, Kerry Carpenter will pick up a start in right field and Miguel Cabrera will enter the lineup at designated hitter.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Not starting Sunday

    Vierling is out of the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Blue Jays. Vierling started the past nine games and will receive a day off after he hit .364/.432/.485 during that span. Kerry Carpenter will man right field while Miguel Cabrera serves as the designated hitter.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Back in action Wednesday

    Vierling (back) will start in center field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Royals. Vierling will check back into the Detroit outfield after a bout with back spasms kept him on the bench each of the past three games. Now that Vierling is ostensibly healthy again, Jake Marisnick will likely move back into a fourth-outfielder role.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Leading off Saturday

    Vierling is starting in right field and batting first in Saturday's game against the Twins. With Zach McKinstry on the bench, the Tigers will turn to Vierling in the leadoff spot. The latter has consecutive three-hit games, pushing his season batting average to .268, and he could see more opportunities at the top of the order if he stays hot at the plate. Vierling has also chipped in four stolen bases this season, though he has been caught stealing five times.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Tallies three hits Thursday

    Vierling went 3-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored in Thursday's win over the Twins. Vierling also got picked off when he left too early trying to steal second base, but it was a positive night overall. He started in center field before shifting over to right when Jake Marisnick entered as a defensive replacement. With Riley Greene (fibula) out, Vierling should remain a lineup staple most days. Even when Greene eventually returns, Vierling figures to be the top option in right.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Activated, starting in CF

    The Tigers activated Vierling (back) from the 10-day injured list Monday. He'll start in center field and bat sixth in Detroit's series opener with Atlanta. Vierling has been sidelined since late May with a back issue but is ready to roll following a short rehab assignment. He's seen most of his action in right field this season, but he could end up settling into a regular role in center for the time being while Riley Greene (lower leg) is likely multiple weeks away from a return from the IL.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Could be activated Monday

    Vierling (back) returned to Detroit on Sunday and could be reinstated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Monday's series opener with Atlanta, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. Vierling met with team trainers and manager A.J. Hinch in what appeared to be a final checkup after he completed a two-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Friday and Saturday. Assuming Vierling's back issue is no longer causing him problems, he should immediately step into a near-everyday role in the Detroit outfield once activated.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Begins workouts at Triple-A

    Vierling (back) began workouts at Triple-A Toledo on Thursday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports. That would indicate that Vierling might be cleared to play in minor-league rehab games this weekend and could perhaps return to the Tigers' active roster early next week. The 26-year-old outfielder has been on the 10-day injured list since May 30 due to lower-back soreness.

  • Tigers' Matt Vierling: Back injury forces IL stint

    Vierling was placed on the 10-day injured list by the Tigers on Tuesday with lower back soreness, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports. Vierling was a late scratch from Monday's lineup due to the injury and a day later he's now on the IL. He'll be eligible to return in early June, but it's not clear at this point whether he'll be ready by then. Zach McKinstry could see more action in the outfield with Vierling out, although Kerry Carpenter (shoulder) is due back soon from his own IL stint.
