Detroit Tigers Team Notes Over 3 Million Views!!! Thankyou!

Tigers' Jordan Zimmermann: Lined up for Sept. 10 return.
Zimmermann (neck) is in line to return from the DL to start Saturday against the Orioles.
ZImmermann is set for his third and final rehab start Monday at Triple-A Toledo, where he's expected to see his pitch count push closer to 75 after going 60 pitches in his last outing.
Assuming Monday's start goes well, he'd then be in line to join the Tigers' rotation on his normal four days of rest.
Matt Boyd or Daniel Norris would likely be dropped from the rotation in order to clear up a spot for Zimmermann, who has been limited to just one start since the All-Star break due to the injury.

September 5 in Tigers and mlb history:

1971: The Tigers tie a major-league record by using six pinch hitters in the 7th inning, but lose 6 - 5 to the Yankees anyway.

1984: Cal Ripken's 1st-inning error lets in Alan Trammell with a run, and that's it as the Tigers beat Baltimore 1 - 0. Juan Berenguer is the winner with Willie Hernandez picking up his 28th save. Mike Flanagan goes all the way in the loss. Detroit's magic number is now 15.

1995: Cal Ripken ties Lou Gehrig's all-time mark by appearing in his 2,130th consecutive game.
