Casey McGehee, 3B
Victor Martinez, DH (9-for-28, double, 2 HR, 2 walks, 3 K?s)
J.D. Martinez, RF (1-for-14, HR, 2 walks, 8 K?s)
Justin Upton, LF (0-for-3, 2 K?s)
James McCann, C (2-for-11, 2 walks, 5 K?s)

royals (career numbers vs. Verlander).
Paulo Orlando, CF (2-for-6, double, triple, K)
Cheslor Cuthbert, 3B (0-for-5, walk, 4 K?s)
Lorenzo Cain, RF (9-for-30, 2 doubles, HR, 6 K?s)
Eric Hosmer, 1B (19-for-74, 5 doubles, triple, HR, 5 walks, 14 K?s)
Kendrys Morales, DH (13-for-40, 4 doubles, 2 HR, 11 K?s)
Salvador Perez, C (23-for-49, 8 doubles, 2 HR, 6 K?s)
Alex Gordon, LF (17-for-83, 5 doubles, 2 HR, 12 walks, 30 K?s)
Alcides Escobar, SS (14-for-73, 4 doubles, 2 walks, 7 K?s)
Raul Mondesi, 2B
P: Danny Duffy
No Miguel Cabrera in the Tigers lineup tonight as he deals with a left biceps strain. Brad Ausmus said he had to convince Cabrera that an day of caution was the best course. Jarrod Saltalamacchia starts at first base over Andrew Romine. Tyler Collins starts in center against left-hander Danny Duffy, but he?ll bat ninth in the lineup. Essentially, it?s a start for defensive purposes, though Mike Aviles is 5-for-18 off Duffy. Casey McGehee moves up to second, as he did Saturday against Cole Hamels.
The Royals lineup has a lot of history against Justin Verlander. His 30 strikeouts of Alex Gordon are the most by any active pitcher against an active player in the Majors at this point, according to Elias Sports Bureau.
