Detroit — The Tigers’ troublesome shortstop position has taken another hit.
Niko Goodrum, who had made 39 starts at shortstop, was put on the injured list Saturday with a tendon injury in the tip of his left index finger.
“Hopefully it can be resolved relatively quickly,” manager AJ Hinch said. “He’s seeing some doctors and they are sending films to some hand doctors around the country. But essentially, he’s got an issue with the tip of his left index finger. No surgery is required, but we have to get the swelling out of his entire hand.
