Harold Castro sitting for Tigers on Thursday

Detroit Tigers infielder Harold Castro is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series opener against left-hander Konnor Pilkington and the Cleveland Guardians.

What It Means:

Castro went 3-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Wednesday's win over the Minnesota Twins, but he's back on the bench for Thursday's opener. Javier Baez is shifting to shortstop while Miguel Cabrera enters the lineup as the Tigers' designated hitter and No. 3 batter. Jonathan Schoop is hitting second.
