On bench for series opener Carpenter is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Impact In his return from a month-long stint on the 10-day injured list in Sunday's 10-4 win over Toronto, Carpenter went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts. The left-handed-hitting Carpenter should occupy a prominent spot in the lineup in most of the Tigers' matchups with righties, but he'll routinely be held out of the starting nine versus southpaws. He'll get Monday's series opener off while southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez toes the rubber for Arizona.

Activated, starting Sunday The Tigers reinstated Carpenter (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Sunday. He'll start in right field and bat third in the Tigers' series finale with the Blue Jays.

Impact Infielder Trey Sweeney was optioned to Triple-A Toledo to make room on the 26-man active roster for Carpenter, who is back with the Tigers after a three-and-a-half-week stay on the shelf due to a right hamstring strain. While moving between the corner outfield and the designated-hitter spot, Carpenter should be a regular presence in the Detroit lineup against right-handed pitching now that he's been given the green light to return following a four-game rehab assignment with Toledo.

Plays field in second rehab game Carpenter (hamstring) started in right field and went 0-for-3 with a walk and a strikeout in his second rehab game with Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday.

Impact Carpenter kicked off his rehab stint Tuesday by serving as the DH before taking to the field the next night. He played seven innings in right before departing for a pinch hitter. Carpenter is expected to remain on assignment through the weekend, and the team will likely want to see him go a full nine innings in a corner outfield spot before he's activated. The 27-year-old was having another productive season for the Tigers before getting hurt in late June, as he had a .779 OPS and 16 home runs through 78 games.

Kicks off rehab assignment Carpenter (hamstring) went 1-for-4 in his first rehab game with Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday.

Impact Carpenter served as Toledo's DH in what marked his first game action at any level since June 29. According to Evan Petzold of The Detroit Free Press, Carpenter will need to complete several rehab games and will likely need to prove he can handle playing a full nine innings in the corner outfield before Detroit reinstates him from the injured list, so the 27-year-old's minor-league assignment could last through the weekend.

Runs at full speed Monday Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said that Carpenter (hamstring) completed running drills at full speed Monday at Comerica Park, Evan Petzold of The Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Hinch noted that if Carpenter's right hamstring responds well to the workout when he's re-evaluated Tuesday, the next step for the outfielder/designated hitter will be to head out on a rehab assignment at Triple-A Toledo later this week. Carpenter has been on the shelf since July 2, so he'll likely need at least a couple of games in the minors to regain his timing at the plate before he makes his return to the Detroit lineup, perhaps early next week.
