Sat, 18 May 2013 14:33:55 -0700 Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland said OF Austin Jackson (hamstring) is feeling better and expects Jackson to come off the 15-day disabled list when he is eligible. Fantasy Tip: It sounds like Jackson will only miss one more week because of his hamstring injury. Owners should add him back to their starting lineups once he returns.
Mon, 13 May 2013 09:58:29 -0700 The Detroit Tigers placed OF Austin Jackson (hamstring) on the 15-day disabled list with a right hamstring pull Monday, May 13, and recalled OF Avisail Garcia from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move. Jackson's DL stint will be retroactive to May 12. Fantasy Tip: Don Kelly started in center field yesterday with Jackson out, but he might have just been a one-game replacement. Although he doesn't have the range he once had, Torii Hunter could slide over to center, which would allow the Tigers to place Garcia in right field. Garcia's season is off to a slow start thanks to a heel injury, but he represents the most upside out of the group that includes Kelly and Matt Tuiasosopo. Andy Dirks should continue to see consistent playing time in left. The outfield arrangement could be very fluid, though, so deep mixed leaguers speculating on increased playing time might have to be patient.
Fri, 03 May 2013 18:22:41 -0700 Updating a previous report, Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland said OF Austin Jackson (hamstring) did not ask for the night off, but Leyland felt he needed one. "Jackson's hamstring are a bit sore," Leyland said. "He played all those games. He's playing all the time. You've got to watch it."
Fri, 03 May 2013 17:01:12 -0700 Detroit Tigers OF Austin Jackson (rest) was held out of the lineup Friday, May 3, against the Houston Astros. It is a scheduled day off. OF Andy Dirks moved to the leadoff spot, and OF Don Kelly drew the start in center field.
Tue, 19 Feb 2013 18:44:33 -0800 Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland said Tuesday, Feb. 19, that his regular starting outfield will each start the Grapefruit League spring game Saturday, Feb. 23, against the Toronto Blue Jays. That means OFs Andy Dirks will be in left field, Austin Jackson in center field and Torii Hunter in right field.
Fri, 25 Jan 2013 11:53:16 -0800 Detroit Tigers OF Austin Jackson, who stole a career-low 12 bases last year, is expected to increase that total in 2013 after the team hired new base running consultant Jeff Cox. Jackson said that hitting in front of OF Torii Hunter should also help increase his stolen base total. "We obviously would like to see guys steal more bases," manager Jim Leyland said.
Fri, 18 Jan 2013 11:30:31 -0800 The Detroit Tigers avoided arbitration with OF Austin Jackson, SP Doug Fister and C Alex Avila Friday, Jan. 18, by agreeing to one-year deals with each. Fister will make $4 million, Jackson will earn $3.5 million and Avila will receive $2.95 million this year.
Thu, 18 Oct 2012 23:41:46 -0700 Detroit Tigers 3B Miguel Cabrera, SS Jhonny Peralta and OF Austin Jackson all hit home runs Thursday, Oct. 18, during Game 4 of the American League Championship Series as the Tigers won, 8-1, over the New York Yankees to complete a four-game sweep.
Mon, 17 Sep 2012 08:26:20 -0700 Detroit Tigers OF Austin Jackson (ankle) is back in the lineup Monday, Sept. 17.
Sun, 16 Sep 2012 23:15:23 -0700 Detroit Tigers OF Austin Jackson (ankle) was scratched from the lineup Sunday, Sept. 16, with a sore left ankle. Jackson is day-to-day. Jackson's absence moved OF Quintin Berry to the leadoff spot, and he played center field, while OF Andy Dirks hit second and played left field.
