SEPTEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Dropped from 40-man roster Bonifacio cleared waivers Tuesday and was outrighted to Triple-A Toledo.

Impact Bonifacio came to the plate 94 times for the Tigers this season but did very little with his opportunities, hitting .221/.277/.326. He'll remain with the organization as minor-league depth for now.

Sits for second straight Bonifacio remains on the bench Wednesday against the Twins.

Impact Bonifacio had started nine out of 10 games in left field before sitting for the last two. It's hard to say he deserves an everyday role, as he's hitting .232/.281/.341 on the year in 89 plate appearances. Harold Castro starts in left field in his place.

Sitting amid slump Bonifacio is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Twins.

Impact He had a hot second week of September but has since cooled down, hitting .111 with eight strikeouts over his last 18 at-bats. Brandon Dixon, whose contract was purchased earlier in the day, is starting in left field and batting fifth.

Slugs second homer Bonifacio went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run during a 6-3 win over the Cardinals in the second game of Thursday's doubleheader.

Impact After sitting during the matinee, Bonifacio came up big in the nightcap, with his blast off Ryan Helsley in the seventh inning capping a five-run comeback. The outfielder is now slashing .235/.278/.392 with two homers and 12 RBI through 18 games.

SEPTEMBER 11, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Out for Game 1 Bonifacio is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Thursday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.

Impact He had some rough at-bats against righty Corbin Burnes in Wednesday's game, so he will take a seat with another tough righty (Jack Flaherty) on the mound. Look for him to get back in the mix against lefty Austin Gomber in the nightcap. Travis Demeritte will start in left field and bat sixth.

Rangers snap 6-game losing streak, beat Angels 7-1

SEPTEMBER 9, 2020 • Associated Press

Holding down regular role Bonifacio will start in right field and will bat seventh in Monday's series finale against the Twins.

Impact Rather than prospect Derek Hill, Bonifacio has been the main beneficiary since top center fielder JaCoby Jones (hand) suffered a likely season-ending injury last week. Bonifacio will draw his fourth consecutive start in the corner outfield Monday while Victor Reyes covers Jones' old post in center field. Bonifacio is slashing a pedestrian .216/.275/.351 through his first 14 games with the Tigers, but he turned in one of his better performances of the season in Sunday's 10-8 win, going 2-for-5 with a double and two runs.

Buxton beats out infield single in 9th; Twins top Tigers 4-3

Miguel Sanó led Minnesota’s rally against the Detroit bullpen with a home run and the tying single in the ninth inning, before Byron Buxton beat out an infield single for the game-...

SEPTEMBER 6, 2020 • Associated Press

Starting Saturday Bonifacio is starting in right field and batting sixth in Saturday's game against the Twins.

Impact JaCoby Jones (hand) is likely out for the rest of the season and Cameron Maybin was traded to the Cubs at the deadline, so there is more playing time up for grabs in the Detroit outfield these days. Bonifacio has appeared in 12 games for the Tigers so far and is slashing .179/.258/.321.

Hiura, Peterson HR, Brewers rally, end Tigers' 6-game streak

AUGUST 27, 2020 • Associated Press

Hits first home run Bonifacio went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 7-4 win over Cleveland.

Impact Bonifacio picked a good time for his first hit of the season, taking Carlos Carrasco deep in the fourth inning to push the Tigers ahead 4-1. The 27-year-old outfielder has been earning more playing time lately ahead of the likes of Christin Stewart and Cameron Maybin, though none of the three players look like particularly strong fantasy options at the moment.
