Andy Dirks was hitless in four at-bats in his return to the lineup Saturday.
Dirks hadn't played since Tuesday due to knee soreness. He should be fine physically, but his batting line is down to .245/.299/.348 for the season.
Jun 16 - 8:23 AM
Andy Dirks (knee) is not expected to return to the starting lineup until Saturday.
Dirks is dealing with some knee soreness, so Tigers manager Jim Leyland is trying to keep him off his feet. He was out of the lineup Wednesday and will sit out again Friday following Thursday's scheduled off-day. "He's going to get three days off, and that's a good thing," said Leyland. "I think his knees are a little sore. He will have today off, obviously tomorrow off -- we're all off -- and then the first pitcher in Minnesota's a left-hander, so that should freshen him up good. That works out good."

Andy Dirks went 2-for-5 with a home run as the Tigers beat the Indians on Tuesday.
The homer was Dirks' fifth, and he drove in two runs on the night. What's more, the outfielder batted leadoff ahead of Torii Hunter and Miguel Cabrera. It's likely temporary until Austin Jackson returns, but if Dirks can continue to get on base he should be in line to score plenty of runs in his new lineup spot.
May 21 - 10:20 PM
Andy Dirks went 3-for-4 and hit his first career grand slam Monday versus the Astros.
If Avisail Garcia stays half as hot in the majors as he was in the minors, then a left field controversy could bloom when Austin Jackson is ready to return. Dirks, though, deserves to keep his spot against right-handers. He's hitting .317 with three homers and seven RBI in May after his rough April.

Alex Avila
D.L.
Tigers placed C Alex Avila on the 15-day disabled list with a deep contusion on his left forearm.
Avila suffered the injury when he was hit by a pitch on Sunday. Bryan Holaday has been called up in a corresponding roster move while Brayan Pena figures to get most of the playing time behind the plate.

Tigers head athletic trainer Kevin Rand said Monday that an MRI on Anibal Sanchez's right shoulder showed no structural damage.
Encouraging news for the Tigers, though Sanchez was placed on the disabled list Monday. The hope is that he'll be ready to return right around when he's eligible at the end of the month.

Octavio Dotel
D.L.
Octavio Dotel is currently limited to playing catch after feeling more soreness in his right elbow after throwing from a mound.
"I don't know what's going on with Dotel," Tigers manager Jim Leyland said. "I think he's just trying to see if he still has it." Leyland added that some days Dotel feels good enough to play catch, but other days he doesn't. Multiple MRIs on Dotel's elbow have shown no structural damage, but Jason Beck of MLB.com writes that Dotel's season "appears to be in question." It's a fair question given that he's been out since late April and has yet to make notable progress.
