Detroit Tigers Roster Report 8-23-11
MEDICAL WATCH:
--2B Carlos Guillen (sore left wrist) went on the 15-day disabled list Aug. 13.
--RHP Al Alburquerque (concussion) went on the seven-day disabled list Aug. 12. The Tigers hoped he could return by the weekend of Aug. 19, but now don't expect him back until Aug. 26 or so as he was mandated for a second stay on the 7-day disabled list for concussions when tests showed he was having lingering effects from being hit on the left temple by a line drive.
--DH Victor Martinez (left knee) is still bothered by his knee, keeping him from catching but not preventing him from DHing.
--LHP Brad Thomas (sore left elbow) went on the 60-day disabled list July 25. He was shut down from throwing until at least mid-August.
--RHP Joel Zumaya (right elbow surgery in July 2010) experienced pain in the elbow during his Feb. 27 spring debut, and he went on the 15-day disabled list March 30. He was transferred to the 60-day DL on April 18. He had exploratory surgery May 10, and he might be out for the season.
