[kalinecountry]

Injured Tigers shortstop Jordy Mercer is nearing a rehab assignment and could return to the majors by the first week of July, according to manager Ron Gardenhire. Mercer, out since April 14 with a right quad strain, already began a rehab stint once. However, he suffered a setback three weeks ago and hasn?t returned to game action yet. When the rebuilding Tigers signed the soon-to-be 33-year-old Mercer to a $5.25MM guarantee in the offseason, they were likely hoping he?d perform well enough to emerge as a summer trade chip.
Instead, the former Pirate got off to a brutal start ? .206/.275/.317 (55 wRC+) in 69 plate appearances ? and hasn?t played since.
