JaCoby Jones out of the Tigers' lineup, Leonys Martin batting leadoff on Friday

Detroit Tigers outfielder JaCoby Jones is not starting on Friday against the Cleveland Indians.

What It Means:

In a Thursday game where the Tigers scored 7 runs, Jones had a forgettable night, going 0-for-5 with 4 strikeouts. He'll get a break on Friday, so Niko Goodrum will start in left field. Leonys Martin will move up the order and bat leadoff.

Jones is batting .219/.267/.378 with 25 runs, 4 home runs, 15 RBIs, and 5 stolen bases this season.
