With less than a month remaining in the regular season, the Detroit Tigers could soon be getting some reinforcements back from the injured list just in time to make a final push before embarking on what they hope will be another deep postseason run.
Speaking to reporters (including Evan Woodberry of MLive) on Monday, Tigers manager A.J. Hinch gave some updates – or, more accurately in some cases, non-updates – about some of Detroit's injured players.
Outfielder Parker Meadows was the first, who has been sidelined since late July with a right quad strain. He made promising strides during his rehab assignment at Triple-A Toledo and was activated off the injured list Friday for the Tigers' upcoming series against the Chicago White Sox.
