Andrew Romine to start at first base for Tigers tonight
The Tiger have been using Alex Avila at first base in their two games without Miguel Cabrera so far. Andrew Romine will get the start at first base and bat eighth tonight, while Avila moves behind the plate.
What It Means:
It looks like the Tigers don't want to overuse Avila at first base. Andrew Romine will get a chance to show what he can do tonight. He has a .348 wOBA in 77 plate appearances this year.
