Tigers right-hander Michael Lorenzen is making fast progress as he works to return from a groin injury that left him on the IL to open the season.

Lorenzen threw 45 pitches to teammates off the mound yesterday, touching 95 mph with his fastball. The Tigers currently plan for Lorenzen to make a rehab start on Saturday before being activated from the IL on Monday, when he?s first eligible. That would figure to leave either lefty Joey Wentz or righty Matt Manning headed to Triple-A to make room for Lorenzen in the rotation.

Lorenzen, who signed with the Tigers on a one-year, $8.5MM deal this offseason, sports a career 4.10 ERA (105 ERA+) in 471 innings of work between the Reds and the Angels.

Houston 7th.
Easy play error by 2b Man he let ball play him.
Lmao they score that a base hit and not Greene?s earlier in the game.

Nice 1-4-3 Dp ! 2b makes up with staying with high throw.
Come on Ump that?s close enough. BB
Nice 1-4-3 putout .

Might hurt Baez too much if he actually goes with the pitch once in a while.
