Andrew Romine at shortstop for Jose Iglesias in Detroit's starting lineup

Detroit Tigers shortstop Jose Iglesias is not in the Tigers' lineup Thursday.

What It Means:

It's just a day of rest for the rangy shortstop. Andrew Romine will fill in and bat eighth (under National League rules) against Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Gerrit Cole.

A defense-first shortstop, we project Iglesias to record a .310 wOBA with three homers and 11 steals this year. He had a .310 wOBA with two jacks and 11 steals in 454 plate appearances last season.
