Compounding the club?s woes, Niko Goodrum left the game with a leg injury after being involved in a collision with Twins' Marwin Gonzalez at first base in the sixth inning.

Gonzalez hit a ground ball that caromed off Ross. Ross recovered it, but made a high, off-balance throw to first. Goodrum leaped for the ball, but his right knee clipped Gonzalez?s forehead. Goodrum left the field limping. Gonzalez also came out of the game.

The initial report on Goodrum was a right patellar bruise. Gonzalez had a facial contusion.

"He had X-rays and everything came back negative," Gardenhire said. "It's just going to depend on how he feels. He's going to wake up sore tomorrow. We'll see how we go from there.

"I don't think it's an injured list situation, (the medical staff) doesn't think it is. But we'll know more in the morning."

Just in case, the Tigers did clear a spot on the active roster, sending pitcher Eduardo Jimenez back to Toledo. Blaine Hardy is back with the team and eligible to be activated off the injured list.

Still, Gardenhire said they will wait until Goodrum checks in Saturday morning to make the corresponding move.

DET is 28th in MLB in Run Differential. You have to go back to 2007, where a team made the playoffs with a negative run differential (ARZ -20).


DET Run Differential

2003 = -337, 30th MLB (43-119)

2004 = -17 (72-90)

2005 = -64 (71-91)

2006 = +147, 2nd MLB (95-67)

2007 = +90, 6th MLB (88-74)

2008 = -36 (74-88)

2009 = -2 (86-77)

2010 = +8 (81-81)

2011 = +76, 7th MLB (95-67)

2012 = +56, 12th MLB (88-74)

2013 = +172, 3rd MLB (93-69)

2014 = +52, 7th MLB (90-72)

2015 = -114 (74-87)

2016 = +29, 12th MLB (86-75)

2017 = -159, 29th MLB (64-98)

2018 = -166, 26th MLB (64-98)

2019 = -48, 28th MLB (on pace for -222, 60-102)




It is rare for a team to have a positive run differential and NOT have a winning record. Generally, the top 5-7 teams are making the playoffs.
