PITTSBURGH — Detroit Tigers reliever Joe Jimenez and bench coach George Lombard tested positive for COVID-19.
Both are vaccinated and experienced symptoms.
The Tigers will also be without pitching coach Chris Fetter, quality control coach Josh Paul and bullpen catcher Jeremy Carroll because of contact-tracing. The organization received the results of its latest batch of COVID-19 tests Monday morning, ahead of a three-game series with the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park.
"There are no more symptoms floating around," Hinch said Monday. "Our players have been incredible. We have 100% player participation in the COVID vaccine, so we are really good about that.
