Kevin McGonigle Part of AL Central Dominated Field for Rookie of the Year The Detroit Tigers are reaping the validation of giving Kevin McGonigle room to claim an opening day job.

Colt Keith - Idle against lefty Sunday Keith is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact Keith will hit the bench for the third time in four games, with each of his absences coming while the Tigers have faced a left-handed starting pitcher. Jahmai Jones will take Keith's spot in the starting nine at designated hitter while Boston sends southpaw Garrett Crochet to the hill.

Kevin McGonigle - Receiving Sunday off McGonigle is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Impact The 21-year-old rookie will hit the bench Sunday for just the second time this season. McGonigle started the previous eight games and posted a 1.057 OPS with three extra-base hits, eight runs and seven walks during that stretch. Javier Baez is starting at shortstop while Matt Vierling picks up a start in center field.
APRIL 19 • ROTOWIRE
Framber Valdez - Start pushed back Valdez's scheduled start Sunday against the Red Sox has been pushed back three hours due to rain, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Impact An extended period of rain is forecasted for Boston from midday into the afternoon, making a scheduled 1:35 pm start time unlikely. Valdez will square off against Red Sox lefty Garrett Crochet.

Jake Rogers - Drives in run Saturday Rogers went 1-for-3 with a double and an RBI in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Red Sox.
Impact Making just his sixth start of the season through 21 games, Rogers delivered his second hit and third RBI. Both of his hits have been doubles, but he's otherwise gone 0-for-15 with six strikeouts. Rogers is the clear No. 2 catcher in Detroit behind Dillon Dingler, and the former isn't seeing enough playing time at the moment to carry any meaningful fantasy value in most formats.
APRIL 19 • ROTOWIRE
Tyler Holton - Effective in relief Saturday Holton pitched two scoreless innings of relief and earned a hold in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Red Sox. He struck out two.
Impact In a game dominated by ace Tarik Skubal and ended by veteran closer Kenley Jansen, Holton served as an effective bridge between the two pitchers in the seventh and eighth innings to record his second hold of the year. The lefty reliever has been good so far out of Detroit's bullpen, posting a matching 0.96 ERA and WHIP across nine appearances to go along with seven strikeouts. Holton's fantasy value is capped by his middle relief role, though he has more appeal in leagues that count holds and should continue to provide good ratios in all formats.

APRIL 18 • MLB.COM
Kevin McGonigle - Two hits at Fenway Park McGonigle went 2-for-5 with an RBI single and a run scored during the Tigers' 4-1 win over the Red Sox on Saturday.
Impact McGonigle came around to score in the first inning on a bases-loaded walk drawn by Kerry Carpenter, and the former extended the Tigers' lead to 4-0 with an RBI single in the fourth. McGonigle inked an eight-year, $150 million contract extension with the Tigers on Wednesday and is making that move look more and more like a bargain as his rookie season progresses. He is slashing .312/.411/.481 with one steal, one home run, nine RBI and a 13:11 BB:K over 90 plate appearances.
APRIL 18 • ROTOWIRE
Kerry Carpenter - Collects two RBI vs. Boston Carpenter went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional RBI during the Tigers' 4-1 win over the Red Sox on Saturday.
Impact Carpenter gave the Tigers their first run of the game after drawing a bases-loaded walk in the first frame before extending his team's lead to 2-0 with a solo homer off Brayan Bello in the fourth. It was Carpenter's fourth home run of the season and his second multi-hit game of the 2026 campaign. He has struggled at the plate to open the season, slashing .218/.318/.455 with 12 RBI and a 37.1 percent strikeout rate that ranks in the bottom-three percentile in the majors.
APRIL 18 • ROTOWIRE
Kenley Jansen - Picks up save against old team Jansen earned the save in the Tigers' 4-1 win over the Red Sox on Saturday, allowing one hit in a scoreless ninth inning.
Impact Jansen gave up a single to Willson Contreras but needed just nine pitches to record the next three outs, earning the save against the team he suited up for in 2023 and 2024. Jansen has converted five of six save opportunities this season (including four straight) and has a 1.59 ERA and 0.88 WHIP over 5.2 innings.

Tarik Skubal - Dazzles at Fenway Park Skubal (3-2) earned the win against the Red Sox on Saturday, allowing one run on four hits and two walks while striking out 10 across six innings.
Impact Skubal hit the ground running in Saturday's start, striking out the side in two of his first four innings pitched while retiring 12 of the first 13 batters. He faced adversity in the fifth and sixth frames, but he yielded only one run on six baserunners. It was an outstanding performance out of the defending, back-to-back AL Cy Young winner. He has four quality starts through five outings with a 2.08 ERA and 0.96 WHIP over 30.1 innings, and his 33 strikeouts are tied with Gavin Williams for fourth most in the American League. Skubal is lined up to face the Brewers at home next week.
