Detmers allowed one run on two hits and two walks while striking out 10 batters over seven innings in a no-decision against the White Sox on Monday.

Detmers didn't get the necessary run support to emerge with a win Monday, but he still put forth one of the best efforts of his career. The southpaw finished with his second double-digit strikeout performance of the campaign and notched his third straight quality start after recording just one such effort over his first 11 outings. Detmers has been very impressive over his past four starts, registering a 1.05 ERA and 34:8 K:BB over 25.2 frames. The 2020 first-round draft pick is posting a career-best 11.1 K/9 on the season along with an above-average 3.77 ERA, though he has just one win in 14 starts thus far.

Heaney (5-5) took the loss against Detroit on Monday, allowing six runs on six hits and three walks while striking out five batters over 5.2 innings.

Of the six runs Heaney allowed, three came on a home run by Andy Ibanez and two on a long ball by Jake Rogers. It was the second straight game in which Heaney gave up multiple homers after allowing just three over his prior seven starts combined. The southpaw hasn't completed six frames in any of his last five appearances following a stretch of four straight quality starts between May 9 and May 27. Heaney's poor outing pushed his season ERA to 4.38, which is right in line with his 4.54 career mark. The career-best 3.10 ERA he posted last season with the Dodgers is looking like an outlier rather than a turning point.

Boyd was removed from Monday's game against the Rangers due to left elbow discomfort, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Boyd is likely headed for further evaluation to determine whether he'll miss any time. He gave up one earned run and only recorded two outs -- both via strikeout -- before getting pulled with the injury.

Bush (lat strain) struck out six and walked three over four innings in his first start of the year for Double-A Rocket City.

He gave up one run and allowed only one hit in last week's start, although his control was a little shaky. It was reported in early February that Bush was dealing with a minor oblique injury, which ended up resulting in a four-month absence, but Baseball America recently reported that it was a lat strain. The 6-foot-6 southpaw made 21 starts at Double-A in 2022, so he could quickly advance to Triple-A.

Boyd was removed from Monday's start against the Rangers due to an undisclosed injury, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Boyd gave up one run on one hit and struck out two over 0.2 innings prior to leaving with the team trainer. The extent of the injury is unclear at this time.

Rodriguez (finger) will make a rehab start Thursday for Triple-A Toledo, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

After everything went well during his live batting practice session Saturday, Rodriguez will now officially move on to beginning a rehab assignment. The 30-year-old lefty has been out for nearly a month, so it's possible the Tigers keep him in the minors for more than one rehab start.

Manning (foot) will return to the Tigers' rotation Tuesday versus the Rangers, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Manning issued eight walks in 8.2 innings on his three-start minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo, but he allowed only one (unearned) run. The 25-year-old has been sidelined since April 11 due to a fracture in his right foot and should probably be viewed as a wait-and-see streamer in most fantasy formats as he makes his way back to Detroit's active roster.

Skubal (elbow) will make his next rehab start for Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Wednesday will mark Skubal's fifth minor-league rehab start since beginning his assignment June 4. He's given up three runs (two earned) while striking out 16 batters across 10.2 innings between High-A and Triple-A. If Wednesday's start ends up being Skubal's final appearance in the minors, he would be lined up to return to Detroit's rotation July 4 versus Oakland.

Faedo (finger) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment Tuesday with High-A West Michigan, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Faedo has been on the injured list since late May following a procedure to remove his right middle fingernail, so this seems likely to be a multi-outing rehab stint. He had posted an uneven 5.54 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 26:2 K:BB in 26 innings (five starts) for Detroit prior to the IL stint.

Means (elbow/back) played catch on the field Monday, Danielle Allentuck of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

Means had to put a pause on his Tommy John surgery rehab in late May after suffering a muscle strain in his upper back, but he's now throwing again and suggested recently that he would like to be an option for the Orioles sometime in August. The 30-year-old left-hander hasn't pitched in a major-league game since April 2022.
