Newly recalled outfielder Matt den Dekker will be available off the bench,
but Andrew Romine will get the start in center field for the Detroit Tigers on Friday.
Alex Presley was placed on the seven-day concussion disabled list on Friday.
It's a national league park, so there will be no designated hitter, meaning Tigers starter Michael Fulmer will get a rare opportunity to hit.

Detroit visits San Diego for just 2nd time since 2008.
Notable:
The Tigers have lost six in a row and have dropped into last place in the AL Central for the first time this season.

Detroit has played just three games against San Diego since 2008. The Padres took two of three against the Tigers in 2014 at Petco Park.

Fulmer has lost his past two starts and has struggled in the month of June. He has allowed 13 earned runs in 18 innings in three June starts.

Perdoma did not earn his first win this season until his 11th start. The second-year pitcher lost his last start despite giving up just two runs in six innings against Milwaukee.
San Diego’s offense is last in the majors at 3.58 runs per game. They also are last in doubles (90), batting average (.227) and hits (548).
The Padres are 1-3 in their past four games, scoring a combined six runs. They are fourth place in the NL West – 18.5 games behind the first-place Dodgers.

I wonder if both fan bases think the same..

"Easy team tonight." - DET fan
"Easy team tonight." - SD fan

 

[tigermud]

Offense lets another crap pitcher off the he hook again what else is new., try to at least get something half way decent in return for JD al Avila ya putz

 

[tigermud]

Would have really liked to have seen van man get some at bats in this series..poor rotation planning

 

[tigermud]

How did the tigers end up with this guy anyway

Nothing impressive at all..this was the best option on the farm, pafsstt that's pathetic

 

[tigermud]

I have a gut feeling Iggy is going to be dealt before the tigers leave SD

 

[kalinecountry]

Nicholas Castellanos a last-minute scratch with lower-back tightness. Dixon Machado will play third base, bat No. 6.

Pretty bad getting whip 1-0. Even the TWO run offence would have a chance at winning tonight. But no the no run offence is making an appearance so far!.

 

[tigermud]
