Wenceel Perez Planning To Start Rehab Assignment On Thursday
Detroit Tigers outfielder Wenceel Perez (back) said the plan is for him to start a minor-league rehab assignment with High-A West Michigan on Thursday if all goes well early in the week. Perez, who had been rehabbing at the team's spring training complex in Lakeland, Fla., did some running and played catch at Comerica Park before Monday's blowout win over the Boston Red Sox. It looks like the 25-year-old still needs to be cleared to swing before he's allowed to go on a rehab assignment later this week. He has missed the entire 2025 season to this point due to lumbar spine inflammation and won't be eligible to come off the 60-day injured list until later this month. When healthy, the Dominican outfielder will provide depth for the Tigers' outfield after he hit .242 (94-for-389) with nine home runs, 37 RBI and nine stolen bases in his first 112 MLB games a year ago.
