DETROIT - Detroit Tigers rookie right-hander Jackson Jobe is going on the 15-day injured list with a Grade 1 right flexor strain, the team announced Friday. Jobe, ranked by The Athletic's Keith Law as MLB's No. 11 prospect before the season, surrendered three runs over 4 2/3 innings in his most recent start against the San Francisco Giants but did not speak to reporters and was not seen in the clubhouse after the outing.

DETROIT - When the Detroit Tigers clinched their playoff spot last fall, the raucous celebration rolled deep into the night. Riley Greene, the team's All-Star outfielder, double fisted beers, jumped, shouted and poured suds on anyone he could find. Manager A.J. Hinch doused pitching coach Chris Fetter with Coors Light. Scott Harris, the clean-cut president of baseball operations, joined in on the action, goggles atop his head, hair soaked in celebration.

DETROIT - Over the weekend, Justin Verlander caught wind of Tarik Skubal's masterclass shutout. He checked the box score, saw the nine innings, the 13 strikeouts, the remarkable pitch count of 94. He wanted to see some of the outing for himself. So he called up the highlights. "Really, his last start was kind of eye-opening," Verlander said Wednesday in Detroit. This time last year, Verlander admitted he had not watched Skubal closely enough to offer any honest evaluation.

DETROIT - It was the last day of spring training. The Tigers were in Clearwater. The final game was over. That is when Wenceel Pérez walked through a set of double doors and entered the clubhouse. Most of his teammates were already dressed. Their bags were packed, their spirits were high. Another long spring was over. The Tigers were headed to San Francisco for a pair of exhibition games, and Opening Day was within reach. Pérez, though, was still in uniform. He wore a sullen look on his face.

DETROIT - In the home dugout before the top of the ninth, Tigers catcher Dillon Dingler peered over the green padding and gazed into the bullpen. He was in a rush of adrenaline on his way off the field after the eighth. He missed whether manager A.J. Hinch gave ace Tarik Skubal a fist bump or a handshake. Around here, a fist bump means you're still going. Handshake means your day is done. Out in the 'pen, Dingler saw no one throwing.
