Tigers Manage Injuries, McGonigle Sidelined

The Detroit Tigers are managing a series of injuries across both their major and minor league rosters. Kevin McGonigle, their No. 3 and baseball's No. 27 prospect, is sidelined indefinitely from High-A West Michigan due to a sprained ankle, impacting his promising season start. The major league team has placed outfielder Manuel Margot on the 10-day injured list with left knee inflammation, prompting Brewer Hicklen's recall from Triple-A Toledo. Additional injuries include catcher Jake Rogers with oblique tightness and outfielder Matt Vierling recovering from a rotator cuff strain. Despite these setbacks, the Tigers continue to build on their successful 2024 season, recently securing wins against the Seattle Mariners and Chicago White Sox. The team is aiming to maintain their momentum as they manage these challenges.
