Matt Vierling Out for Opening Day with Shoulder Injury
Detroit Tigers outfielder Matt Vierling has been diagnosed with a strained rotator cuff in his right shoulder, which will prevent him from being ready for Opening Day on March 27. Manager A.J. Hinch confirmed that Vierling will require a period of rest before being re-evaluated for baseball activities, with the team's medical staff assessing the severity of the injury. The 28-year-old had a productive 2024 season, hitting .257 with 16 home runs, and his absence will impact the Tigers' lineup as they navigate spring training without him and fellow outfielder Parker Meadows. With Vierling unavailable, players like Wenceel Pérez and Jace Jung are expected to receive increased playing time. The Tigers aim to provide further updates on Vierling's condition as they assess his recovery timeline.
