Jim Leyland expects Ryan Raburn to catch fire soon and return to his former utility. Too bad the Detroit Tigers' keystoner will have to do so at Triple-A Toledo, his new home after he blew a "last straw" opportunity by going 0-for-4 with three backwards K's in a favorable matchup Tuesday.

The 2012 numbers: .146/.209/.211 with a homer and seven RBIs in 135 at-bats. Yikes. His numerous avenues for playing time and tepid intrigue generated by a few solid partial seasons masked a horrid history of contact efficiency and below-average (subterranean) batting-eye ratios that jeopardized his output.

Raburn is a known slow starter, though, so maybe a few reshufflings can get him back to deep-mixed depth allure. There's still enough power here to justify holding him there, but any 12-team mixers and above should be less inclined.

A roster replacement won't be announced until later Wednesday, and skip said it won't be a second baseman, so that, along with him being a mere 21 years old, rules out Single-A Lakeland and 40-man roster inhabitant Hernan Perez.

To fill the at-bats, Leyland looks to be employing a very Leylandish solution: split 'em between the ever-exciting pair of Ramon Santiago and Danny Worth. The former, being a switch hitter, presumably would earn playing-time favor, but mixed-leaguers shouldn't care about either one, and their AL-only value is further clouded by the equally stagnant Don Kelly.

Bored? Don't blame you.
