Tigers' Miguel Cabrera (back) returns to the lineup on Monday

Detroit Tigers first baseman Miguel Cabrera (back) will DH on Monday against the Oakland Athletics.

What It Means:

Cabrera was lifted from Saturday's game with back tightness, and sat out on Sunday. It's a nagging issue that's troubled him all season, but he's expected to try to play through it down the stretch. John Hicks will return to the bench. Cabrera will bat third against Oakland right-hander Jharel Cotton.
