Matt Vierling Plays Outfield In Rehab Start On Sunday
Matt Vierling (shoulder) played six innings in right field on Sunday in a minor-league rehab game for Triple-A Toledo and went 0-for-3 at the plate. It was the first time that Vierling played defense in his fifth appearance on the farm. The 28-year-old has gone 3-for-13 with two home runs, a double, two RBI and three runs scored so far with the Mud Hens as he looks to make his 2025 debut with Detroit in the near future. If he is able to avoid a setback with his shoulder, it's possible Vierling could rejoin the major-league roster this weekend or early next week. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues looking for help in the outfield or at third base should take notice, as Vierling should play regularly between center field and the hot corner when he's back. In his two seasons with the Tigers, he's slashed .259/.320/.406 with 26 homers, 101 RBI and 12 steals in 278 games played.
