Leyland says rainout could be advantage to Tigers, because of Delmon return, and extra day of rest for Scherzer.

Leyland on Cabrera: He was a man on a mission to win batting title, and it looks like he's still on it.

Leyland quip on the non-rain: "I think if somebody buys an umbrella here, they cancel school".

Tigers had Clete Thomas report to instructional league, in case they get another OF injury. Also, Carlos Guillen will play in IL game today.

As for the other outfielder in the Tigers' traveling party, 76-year-old Al Kaline said: "I can't remember the last time I swung a bat."

Tigers said Delmon was feeling better Sunday, but there was "zero chance" he could have played if game went as scheduled Sunday night.

Tigers hitting coach Lloyd McClendon gave thumbs-up on Delmon's round. "Ready to go," he said.

Carlos Guillen is a possibility if Tigers advance to WS. Brennan Boesch is not.
