Impact The fact that Brieske's injury is being characterized as tendinitis rather than a strain suggests he isn't dealing with anything too severe, but the Tigers are still likely to take a cautious approach with the rookie pitcher during a non-contending season. He'll presumably be shut down for at least a few days before the Tigers determine if he's fit to resume a throwing program. With Brieske not coming off the IL this week like the Tigers had planned, the team will need to break in a new pitcher into the rotation Friday against the White Sox.
