Victor Martinez will be relegated to a pinch-hitting role with the Tigers to start the season as he continues to recover from an injured hamstring. The Tigers open playing against the Marlins in Miami, meaning the team won't have the DH role for Martinez. (MLive.com)
Fantasy Impact:
Martinez would likely resume DH duties once the team finishes with its brief interleague series. He's a player our experts feel is worth taking a flier on later in your standard drafts, but he's always an injury risk, especially at this stage of his career.
