TYLER NEVIN NEWS

Optioned to Triple-A Nevin was optioned to Triple-A Toledo by the Tigers on Saturday.

Impact Zach Short will remain on the active roster after being called up as the 27th man for Detroit's doubleheader against the Orioles on Saturday. In 22 at-bats, Nevin slashed .091/.222/.227 with one homer and a 3:7 BB:K, and he'll head to Toledo and likely get regular playing time.

Back on bench versus righty Nevin is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Brewers.

Impact Nevin had started in three of the Tigers' past four games -- all against right-handed pitchers -- but he'll head back to the bench for Monday's series opener. With Javier Baez moving past a minor finger injury and Zach McKinstry swinging a hot bat of late to at least temporarily earn himself more reps against right-handers, Nevin may have to settle for a short-side platoon role in the Detroit infield.

Late addition to lineup Nevin is starting at third base and batting seventh Sunday against the Orioles.

Impact The 25-year-old was originally absent from Sunday's lineup, but he was added to the starting nine after Javier Baez (finger) was scratched. Nevin has yet to find much success in his first five big-league games of the season, going 1-for-13 with an RBI and two walks.

Sitting Sunday Nevin is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Impact He'll cede his spot in the lineup to Zach McKinstry, who will be rewarded with a start at third base after slugging a solo home run in Saturday's 5-1 loss. Though a regular spot in the starting nine is there for the taking for Nevin while a punchless Tigers offense has now failed to score more than four runs in five straight games, the 25-year-old remains part of the team's wholesale issues at the plate. Through five games with the big club, Nevin is hitting .077 with five strikeouts in 17 plate appearances.

Heads to bench Friday Nevin will sit Friday versus the Orioles, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Nevin will get a breather after he went 0-for-4 with a strikeout Wednesday against the Guardians, dropping to 1-for-10 from the plate this season. Nick Maton will slide over to third base while Jonathan Schoop enters the lineup at second base and bats eighth in the series opener in Baltimore.

APRIL 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Getting another start Wednesday Nevin will start at third base and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

Impact Nevin will start for the fourth time in six games and may have at least temporarily inched ahead of the likes of Zach McKinstry and Jonathan Schoop as manager A.J. Hinch's preferred option for the remaining opening in Detroit's everyday lineup. Since being called up from Triple-A Toledo, Nevin is getting on base at a .400 clip in 10 plate appearances, but he'll need to continue to excel at the dish over a larger sample of playing time before he takes firmer hold of a regular spot.

Tigers rally from 5 down, Cabrera walks off Giants in 11th

Miguel Cabrera’s walk-off single in the 11th inning gave the Detroit Tigers the final push in their rally from a five-run deficit to beat the San Francisco Giants 7-6

APRIL 15, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Batting second again Nevin is starting at third base and batting second for the Tigers in Friday's game versus the Giants.

Impact Nevin was on the bench Wednesday for the first game after his recall but has started each of the last two contests for the Tigers, both times in the two-hole. One was against a righty and this one comes versus lefty Sean Manaea. With the Tigers' offense scuffling, Nevin could get a long look. The fantasy upside here is pretty limited, though.

APRIL 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled from Triple-A Nevin was recalled Wednesday from Triple-A Toledo.

Impact Nevin nearly made the Opening Day roster in Detroit this spring and will now get a look as Matt Manning (foot) heads to the injured list. A career .205/.312/.292 hitter in the bigs, Nevin projects for a roving backup role with the Tigers.

APRIL 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

The Detroit News Because the Tigers could use help in that lineup, it's easy to peek at Toledo and see what might be brewing with Tyler Nevin and Justyn-Henry Malloy.

APRIL 9, 2023 • DETROITNEWS.COM

Activated and optioned Nevin was activated from the 10-day injured list Friday and optioned to Triple-A Toledo, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact Nevin went 11-for-18 on his rehab assignment, showing no ill effects of the oblique injury which landed him on the injured list to begin the season. He should get a shot with the big club eventually but for now will head to Toledo.

APRIL 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting rehab assignment Nevin (oblique) is beginning a rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Friday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Nevin is eligible for activation on April 8 and would seem to have a good shot to be ready at that time. He could see a lot of playing time for the Tigers at third base against lefties.

MARCH 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on 10-day IL Nevin was placed on the 10-day injured list by the Tigers on Thursday with a left oblique strain.

Impact Nevin is coming along with his oblique strain but needs a little more time. He's slated to begin a rehab assignment this weekend, with a return when first eligible possible.

MARCH 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Rehab assignment forthcoming Nevin (oblique) is on track to begin a rehab assignment at a minor-league affiliate this weekend, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact The Tigers will formally place Nevin (oblique) on the 10-day injured list at some point prior to Thursday's season opener at Tampa Bay, but the fact that he'll be taking part in games this weekend suggests he'll likely be in line for a minimum-length stay on the shelf. Once he's activated, the righty-hitting Nevin could occupy the smaller side of a platoon at third base with the lefty-hitting Nick Maton.

Impact Nevin has been dealing with an oblique injury through much of camp. The 26-year-old shouldn't need a long stay on the injured list before returning to the Detroit lineup, and he is expected to serve as a bench option who can fill in at the corner infield positions.

MARCH 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

To return to games this weekend Nevin (oblique) is expected to return to game action this weekend, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact It's not clear whether that will be a minor-league game or Grapefruit League contest, but either way Nevin has pretty much put his oblique injury behind him. He would seem to have a shot to be ready for Opening Day, but it will be close.

MARCH 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Poised for full batting practice Nevin (oblique) will take full batting practice by the end of the week, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact Nevin is two weeks removed from a left oblique strain and has made a nice recovery. Whether he has enough time to be ready for Opening Day is another question, as he's working with a tight window.

MARCH 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

To ramp up hitting next week Nevin (oblique) hit off a tee Thursday and will ramp up his hitting progression next week, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact Nevin has been going through other baseball activites, as well, as he makes a swift recovery from a left oblique strain. The 25-year-old would seem to have a shot to get ready in time for Opening Day.

MARCH 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Making progress Nevin (oblique) has started playing catch and going through defensive drills, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact Nevin is also aiming to hit off a tee by the end of the week. Phil's son is working his way back from a mild left oblique strain and it seems like he might have an outside shot to be ready for Opening Day.

MARCH 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Has mild oblique strain Nevin has been diagnosed with a mild left oblique strain, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Nevin suffered the injury earlier this week during batting practice. He's shut down from baseball activities for now and could very well be unavailable for Opening Day even as the strain is being deemed minor.

Tigers' Tyler Nevin shut down due to oblique soreness Tyler Nevin was scheduled for an MRI on his oblique Wednesday. Hinch said the results would be reported on Friday.

MARCH 8, 2023 • DETROITNEWS.COM

Battling sore oblique Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said Nevin is scheduled to undergo an MRI after experiencing oblique soreness in batting practice Tuesday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Nevin's injury further tests the Tigers' already-thin depth at third base, as non-roster invitee Andy Ibanez (finger) got hurt while preparing for the World Baseball Classic and is also limited for the time being. The Tigers won't know the full scope of Nevin's injury until the results of his MRI are read, but even if he's only sidelined for a few days, the oblique issue could derail his chances of making the Opening Day roster. With a .737 OPS through seven Grapefruit League games, Nevin had been making a decent case to break camp as a short-side platoon mate for the lefty-hitting Nick Maton at third base.

MARCH 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Off to strong spring start Nevin is 4-for-10 with a pair of home runs through four Grapefruit League games.

Impact Nevin is competing for playing time at the corner infield spots in Detroit, and he's making a good impression early in camp. The 25-year-old struggled last year with the Orioles, registering a .197/.299/.261 slash line across 58 games. He'll likely begin the year backing up Spencer Torkelson at first and possibly Nick Maton at third, so Nevin probably won't have a ton of fantasy appeal, though he could earn a larger role if he keeps hitting.
