4 days agoTigers Notes: Torres, Verlander, Melton
Gleyber Torres left the game due to left side tightness, undergoing further evaluation amid concerns over the Tigers' infield depth.
With the Tigers' season now over, Gleyber Torres is planning to undergo sports hernia surgery, the second baseman told reporters (including the Detroit News' Tony Paul) in the aftermath of the club's loss in Game Five of the ALDS. Torres revealed that he has been dealing with the injury for several months, and praised the Tigers' training and medical staff for helping him keep playing. " It was not good from the [start of the] second half," Torres said. " It was a lot of pain. But we do a really good job keeping me playing....It's not about the numbers, it's just about playing every day."
