Sun, 05 May 2013 10:37:04 -0700 Detroit Tigers DH Victor Martinez will not be in the starting lineup during the team's interleague series against the Washington Nationals Tuesday, May 7, and Wednesday, May 8. Manager Jim Leyland said Martinez is not ready for catching duties at this point and will be used as a pinch hitter.
Thu, 11 Apr 2013 07:33:43 -0700 Detroit Tigers DH Victor Martinez (thumb) returned to the lineup Thursday, April 11.
Wed, 10 Apr 2013 19:42:03 -0700 Detroit Tigers C Victor Martinez (thumb) was back in the lineup Wednesday, April 10, against the Toronto Blue Jays. He was serving as the designated hitter just one day after suffering a cut to his thumb courtesy of a bat rack. Martin finished hitless in four at-bats with a walk, RBI and strikeout.
Tue, 09 Apr 2013 08:23:24 -0700 Updating an earlier report, Detroit Tigers DH Victor Martinez (thumb) is out of the lineup Tuesday, April 9. The cut is on top of his thumb. Fantasy Tip: That is good news because it won't greatly affect him gripping a bat. He could miss just a few days.
Tue, 09 Apr 2013 08:00:31 -0700 Detroit Tigers DH Victor Martinez (thumb) suffered a cut on his right thumb from the bat rack that required eight stitches. He's day to day. Fantasy Tip: This might keep him out for up to a week, barring an infection. Look to find another option until the stitches come out.
Fri, 22 Mar 2013 10:12:47 -0700 Detroit Tigers C Victor Martinez will be the team's primary designated hitter this year, but manager Jim Leyland said he could also see some time behind the plate at some point, likely during interleague play. Martinez has not caught a game this spring and probably won't. Fantasy Tip: Martinez, who is only eligible at DH or first base in some fantasy leagues, could play enough games behind the dish to become eligible at catcher once again, but it remains to be seen.
Fri, 08 Mar 2013 08:31:54 -0800 Detroit Tigers DH Victor Martinez (knee) said he's doing so well that he doesn't even think about his knee anymore.
Wed, 06 Mar 2013 12:25:49 -0800 Detroit Tigers C Victor Martinez (back, knee) said he dealt with minor back tightness after receiving one at-bat Wednesday, March 6. The injury bothers him when he hits right-handed. "It's just been a little sore in my back, a little uncomfortable to swing on the right side," Martinez said. "It's just a couple days. It's a little tough. I've been out for a year and I've been out there every day swinging, swinging, swinging." He said he isn't worried about his knee anymore.
Wed, 06 Mar 2013 12:20:12 -0800 Detroit Tigers C Victor Martinez (knee) said it should be several days before he begins hitting from both sides of the plate. He will play in the spring game Thursday, March 7.
Mon, 25 Feb 2013 10:38:29 -0800 Detroit Tigers C Victor Martinez (knee) is back to full strength following knee reconstruction last year, and he hit a home run off Philadelphia Phillies SP Roy Halladay Sunday, Feb. 24. Martinez is 3-for-7 after three spring games. "This is only my third game, but yeah, I've been really surprised," Martinez said. "The hard part is just to get the rhythm, pick up the ball from the pitcher's hand. I've been able to do that the last three days. It's a good sign."
