Detroit Tigers' Niko Goodrum to 10-day IL with finger injury vs. Angels

Special to Detroit Free Press

The Detroit Tigers will be without their top shortstop for at least the next 10 days.

Niko Goodrum was placed on the injured list on Saturday with a tendon sprain in his left index finger, with Isaac Paredes recalled from Triple-A Toledo to take his roster spot.

Goodrum was injured on Friday against the Los Angeles Angels while trying to make a diving stop on a Phil Gosselin single. The finger in his glove hand bent as it hit the outfield grass.

Manager AJ Hinch said the injury will not require surgery.
