Baez had been grimacing after swings and did not play yesterday so I bet it’s DL for him. 

Would be my guess as well... although there's a lot of reason for concern regarding Meadows at the moment

To be honest, the entire Tiger fan base has been grimacing after his swings.

Meadows needs to work on some things and Toledo's the spot to do it - just for now.   

 

If it was Baez going on the IL, wouldn't they be calling up an infielder?    

kriedler and Leonard went down with injuries ... Perez playes many positions that allows Vierling to play 3rd and Gio and McKinstry to play SS, AJ likes his options

Also think the team has higher aspirations than in previous seasons (despite the negativity of the past couple of days) and may be willing to move faster than in previous seasons if they see something not working.

It'll probably be Baez, but if it ends up being Meadows, it wouldn't come as a total shock.

Which would be strange given the fact that they wanted to test all of these young guys in the majors. Every single beat writer and podcast said that the arrow on Meadows was pointing up. It is only 9 games; His speed and defense are a plus but he certainly cannot hit this poorly for much longer.

Wenceel played 2B almost exclusively until this past year, when they sent him to the OF to learn that too. Does that count?

Also, he played SS a long, long time ago... although I don't think he has the arm to play there in MLB. Not in the recent minors either...

Kriedler hurt again?   No way !    He's on the Anthony Rendon plan.      Might as well cut our losses there.

Tigers recall Wenceel Perez

 

The Tigers are calling up infielder/outfielder Wenceel Perez for his major league debut. Perez announced the news himself on his Instagram story. The team hasn’t confirmed the move themselves just yet, nor have the Tigers announced the corresponding 26-man roster move. Per Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press, Perez will be replacing Andy Ibanez, who has some sort of injury. It’s not yet clear what that injury is or how significant it is.
