CLEVELAND — Another day, another player to the injured list.
The Detroit Tigers can't catch a break.
Right-handed reliever Will Vest was placed on the injured list before Friday's series opener against the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field. The 26-year-old tested positive for COVID-19.
Vest must sit out least 10 days before attempting to produce the consecutive negative tests needed for a return.
"We think that we've contained it," manager A.J. Hinch said.
