With Turnbull on IL, Tigers weighing options for starting rotation

Chicago – Well, now what?

Just as the Tigers are expecting to get right-hander Jose Urena back Sunday after he missed one start because of a forearm cramp, they lose another right-handed starter – Spencer Turnbull – who went on the injured list Saturday with a right forearm tightness.

“We have an off-day ahead (on Monday) and I don’t make a lot of declarations before an off-day,” manager A.J. Hinch said before the game Saturday. “We get a chance to recollect ourselves, get home and see where that takes us.”

Turnbull told Hinch Friday night that he felt the discomfort during a 12-pitch at-bat against Yermin Mercedes.
